CLC Invita​tion for Press Conference 21/06/11

Dear All:

As Cambodian Labour Confederation (CLC) president, I would like to invite you for press conference on 21/Jun/2011 at the General Department of Labour of Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training from 3:30pm.

CLC have an official appointment with the representative of Ministry of Labour to discuss about the actions taken by government on labor rights and union register in Cambodia.

I would like to confirm you that in the International Conference of ILO (ILO, ILC), 2010, Labor Standard Committees raised many cases related to Cambodia. Those cases included killing, dismissal, suspension, and other union discriminations.

For those cases, Royal Government of Cambodia has not pushed companies to solve yet.

ILO Labor Conference’s report pushed government to guarantee the Freedom of Association, accept those workers to work include Naga World case, Absara Angkor Case, and other cases in textile and garment sectors.

Recently, Ministry of Labor has refused to register many independent local unions with unacceptable reasons which are the bad affect on Freedom of Association.

Royal Government of Cambodia has not taken actions yet, and then it leads to this discussion.

The discussion will be from 2:00pm to 3:30pm, and then there will be the press conference about the result of the discussion which will start from 3:30pm at the General Department of Labour (Ground Floor) of Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training.

Thus, I would like to invite you to participate and take detail information for this crucial event.
