Public Workers" Unions Reconfirm General Strike on May 14

The Korea Federation of Transportation, Public and Social Services Workers' Unions(KPSU) reconfirmed a general strike called for May 14, at a press conference on May 6.
KPSU said, 'If the government keeps on refusing any form of dialogue and seeks only physical suppression, we have nothing else to offer but dash into the general strike according to schedule. We will organize a time plan through the resolution of central operation meeting in the afternoon.'
The union requires the observance of the present collective agreement until a new one is concluded, the security of direct negotiations between the government and KPSU, and the suspension of suppression on Metropolitan Seoul's subway union.
