S. Korean Workers Declare Actions for Wage Increase
Pyongyang, April 1 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) held a meeting for declaring actions for wage increase in Seoul on March 28.

Speakers at the meeting said that workers had no option but to turn out in actions again as they cannot maintain their existence no matter how hard they work.

The south Korean "government" lends deaf ear to the demand of the workers for wage increase, while pouring tens of billions of won into the "nuclear security summit", they said, adding that this can be solved only through actions.

The participants expressed the will to surely punish the "government" authorities for enforcing an unpopular policy, chanting the slogan "Let us change society through a general strike of the KCTU!"
