Many of the men manning the fishing boats in Taiwan are migrant workers from indonesia, the Philippines or Myanmar, amongst other places. There are frequent reports of them being abused, and when you see them at or around harbours here, they seem hard-worked and quite poor.

For a co-worker's daughter. She's the cutest little girl ever! :) I was sooo excited to make her cake for her! Strawberry cake with cream cheese butter cream frosting. 8 inch cake on top has strawberry whipped cream filling. Fondant flowers, butterflies. I handmade the cupcake wrappers for the regular sized cuppies. Cookies are sugar with fondant and royal icing details. Non-edible bow attached. Mother bought the 9 and the Hello Kitty candles for top of cake.

Sponsored by the Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians (Ucatt) to commemorate building workers who have died at work.
A tree located in the backyard of the BC Legislature commemorates all workers injured or killed in the workplace, and those who suffer from work-related illness or injury.
I have to admit to not looking forward enormously to visiting the Black Country Museum, but I was completely blown away by the "village" that has been constructed, and many of the buildings in it. This is such a lovely building, I'm in awe of it.
AFGE's Women's and Fair Practices Departments host its 2nd Annual YOUNG Summit. This weekend of training focuses on energizing young workers in the labor movement.
Much like the farm workers, the communist industrial workers would walk around in pairs, with one indicating the fabulous plenty (certainly no shortages of hair gel) and opportunity, with a sweep of his arm. Throughout the Soviet occupation, people used to stare ahead of them with determination, either through being inspired by communist ideals, or because they needed glasses.

Greece is in the throes of an economic meltdown. The IMF, EU, and European Central Bank, with the backing of the German government, have imposed severe austerity measures forcing Greeks to pay off a debt incurred by corrupt politicians. The conditions imposed on a bailout have led to massive layoffs, worsening conditions for workers, rampant wage theft, the shredding of the social safety net, and sharp increases in taxes. The cuts have have plunged the economy into a death spiral, forcing unemployment to 27% and climbing.
Much as the Nazis arose in Weimar Germany by exploiting similar economic conditions, Golden Dawn, an avowedly fascist political party, has been rapidly gaining power in Greece. Golden Dawn captured seven percent of the seats in parliament in the most recent election. Armed with government funding and the tacit cooperation of thepolice (many of whom are Golden Dawn members), fascists attack and murder immigrants in the streets, while offering free social services to Greek citizens to build their support base.
It is a bleak picture- but there is hope. Ordinary Greeks are mobilizing to prevent the right-wing takeover of their country. Neighborhood assemblies, Immigrant solidarity groups, labor unions and other civil society organizations are resisting both Golden Dawn and the destructive government policies that created the economic collapse, and increasingly challenging capitalist control of the economy with strikes and workplace occupations. In northeast Greece, workers at Vio.Me (www.viome.org/) have taken over their building materials factory, restarting production without bosses. They join a rising tide of workers control initiatives across the globe, opening the door to another world.
Hear the story directly from the involved workers:
