AKARTA: Leaders of various workers’ unions and movements say they will join together in a more organized way to establish a joint committee and local branches in cities to oppose politicizing wage negotiations.
“Our fight will be equipped with the establishment of resistance posts in every area to strengthen our national structure of resistance,” Congress Alliance of Indonesian Labor Unions (KASBI) representative Sultoni said Monday, as quoted by tribunnews.com.
He said that the posts would be the center for all labor union activities in their respective regions.
“At the moment we only have posts in Tangerang, Jakarta and Bekasi. In the future, there will be more posts in other cities,” he said.
He said their first order of work would be to stage a mass demonstration involving workers in Tangerang on Dec. 7, which would be followed by similar acts in other cities.
