Actions for Checking Conclusion of FTA Declared by S. Korean Trade Union

Pyongyang, November 10 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Confederation of Trade Unions made public an action program for checking the conclusion of the "Free Trade Agreement" on Tuesday.

The organization said the conclusion of the FTA is just like leaving the people's rights to existence to the tender mercy of foreign forces for the sake of big businesses accounting for only one percent of the population.

It is impossible to avoid an overall conflict and struggle between people and big businesses, it noted, voicing its willingness to promptly turn out in an anti-"government" campaign if the "Grand National Party" presses for the ratification of the FTA.

The organization will stage sit-in demos, candlelight rallies, meetings, etc., throughout south Korea, it declared.
