We stand with the working people of Thailand
Soldiers: Don’t shoot ! – No to Abhisit – No to Thaksin
30 April 2010
This is a time of crisis for workers in Thailand.
To achieve democratic rights and economic justice the working people of Thailand have to defeat the Abhisit government and the Thai army. But replacing the current government with Taksin or with some general who switches sides will not change the economic conditions of exploitation imposed by capitalist companies based in Thailand. Workers can resolve this situation if they intervene as an organised workers movement. Only direct democratic control of workplaces and communities by assemblies of working people can begin to restructure the economy in favour of the great majority of the population.
All workers in the region and globally should support coordinated protest actions and international industrial action and solidarity to assist workers in Thailand.
