Reinstatement of Participants in Campaign Demanded in S. Korea
Pyongyang, May 10 (KCNA) -- The Teachers Trade Union of south Korea in a commentary on May 4 demanded the puppet Ministry of Education, Science and Technology to reinstate all the participants in the campaign for issuing declarations on the situation who were dismissed unreasonably.

It was confirmed once again on the same day that unreasonable was the punishment meted out to the former chief of the Inchon Branch of the Teachers Trade Union who had been dismissed on charges of the participation in the said campaign, the commentary held.

This marked an occasion of proving once again that the campaign conducted by teachers of the union in 2009 was just, it added.

Recalling that the international community is showing increasing concern about the human rights situation in south Korea, the commentary urged the ministry to reinstate all the unreasonably punished teachers.
