International Workers Solidarity – Vancouver & the Philippines

8/10/2012

On August 2, 2012, Pete Pinlac (Jose Eleuterio Pinlac) was able to stop in Vancouver on route to a conference in Toronto and spoke on trade union organizing in Philippines, especially how it relates to MAKABAYAN’s strategies in the broader class struggle, and the need for internationalism.
Pete is the chair of the KPD, a coalition of unions and community organizations aimed at broad based political organizing. He is also the former president of the Long Distance Telephone Workers Union in the Philippines and the former president of the MAKABAYAN trade union central.

This event was sponsored by:
SFU Labour Studies Program
TSSU (Teaching Support Staff Union)
VDLC (Vancouver & District Labour Council)
