Repression against Korean workers intensifies

Last week we reported about the fight by workers at the Hyundai Motor Company against precarious employment status. This week the police stormed the factory and forcibly arrested one of the union leaders. Mr. Pak Hyun-je is a delegate for the Hyundai irregular workers chapter of the KMWU. His fellow workers held a protest rally calling for his release outside the police station.

Meanwhile, workers at the Yoosung piston factory have not given up their fight amid continuing repression by thugs and police.
