As recession bites, workers demand retrenchment fund

mayday-rally
The scorching sun did not deter some 500 people and activists who turned up for the Workers’ Day gathering in Seremban yesterday.

They carried banners and placards, wore headbands and chanted slogans such as “Implement minimum wage now”, We want retrenchment fund” and “Jobs for all”.

They also displayed art work and performed skits depicting the exploitation of workers, their low wages and the humiliation they sometimes suffer.
