Protests continue against military rule in Myanmar – The Militant

Myanmar Labour News Despite bloody government repression, protests continued May 17 in Mandalay, Myanmar’s second-largest city, above, demanding the military junta that seized power in the country Feb. 1 stand down. Police and soldiers had broken up a protest march in Mandalay’s Pyigyidagun neighborhood May 12 before it could start, arresting more than 30 people. The president of the Confederation of Trade Unions Myanmar, Maung Maung, told a May 12 online program that “dismissals are taking place, not in hundreds, but in thousands,” as the regime works with the bosses to fire striking workers and union activists. The junta declared martial law May 13 in the small town of Mindat, where some residents had joined the recently formed Chinland Defense Force to resist the regime, arming themselves with homemade hunting rifles. Army units occupied the town after attacking it with artillery, rocket-propelled grenades and automatic weapons, forcing opposition fighters to withdraw.

As the Burmese military coup leaders escalated repression against the democracy uprising in the country this week, two Burmese union federations this week called for international pressure on their government. The Confederation of Trade Unions Myanmar (CTUM) is asking for international sanctions against the regime. The Federation of General Workers Myanmar (FGWM) is asking for international apparel companies to use their leverage over Burmese suppliers to protect garment workers from being dismissed for taking part in the democracy movement. Below are the two statements. For more information on the coup and its aftermath, see the piece we ran last week, Myanmar Workers and Unions on the Front Lines in Fight Against Coup.
