Actions Staged against S. Korean Authorities' Treacherous Rule
Pyongyang, May 20 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Confederation of Trade Unions and the "Seoul Solidarity for Hope of Working People" have been on a grand march against discrimination in Seoul since May 16 with workers, students, citizens and other people of various social standings attending.

Prior to the march, they held a rally.

Speakers at the rally accused the present ruling forces of enforcing a treacherous rule making the poor poorer and the rich richer.

Pursuant to this policy, enterprises are massively increasing part-time jobs and making the living of the workers harder, they charged.

They declared that the people from all walks of life would stage the grand march to have wages paid, win the basic right to labor and the people's right to existence and achieve peace against war.

During the period of the march its participants will bring to light the present regime and enterprise owners' acts of suppressing trade unions and unreasonably dismissing workers and demand a stop to them, they stressed.
