A prominant workers' union in Cambodia has threatened further strikes unless their suspended unionists are reinstated and a current minimum wage dispute is resolved.
The Coalition of Cambodian Apparel Workers Democratic Union (CCAWDU), who led mass garment strikes last month, is ready for another nationwide stoppage.
The Cambodian Ministry of Social Affairs has asked the union not to start new strikes and give them more time to resolve the dispute.
Ek Sopheakdey, secretary general of CCAWDU, said further strikes could start by the end of this month though.
“We will do the strikes in front of stores and clothing shops, and we will announce to the world that garment factories in Cambodia abuse workers’ rights,” he said.
