Workers in the Philippines continue to fight

Saturday, 23 June 2018 - 9:00am to 9:30am
 
While the Philippines is a country that is often talked about in terms of the damage that natural disasters cause to its infrastructure and population, it is also a country where the working class movement has a very proud and militant history.
 
Unfortunately, it has declined in strenght in the last years which has put Filipino workers in a much more vulnerable position.
We talk to Steph Rabusa, a member of Migrante Melbourne, about the state of the workers movement in the Philippines especially in light of the ever more repressive policies of President Duterte.
