Last year I wrote anout May day which in the following link …..
http://www.lankaweb.com/news/items/2016/04/30/may-day-may-day-industry-is-in-a-peril/
Nothing has changed except that a colossal amount is spent by the short sighted politicians of both sides to prove their might ……..
They should extract what has been said last year and show the people that promises have beeb fulfilled
I am sure all the parties will be screaming and insulting at each other and nothing about the workers’ rights
Only the private bus owners ,three wheeler drivers ,Doctors ( privately treating demonstrators who may get intoxicated and hurt during rallies ) University students ( who go for rallies and get free liquor and food) ,……….all of them were holding protests during last year to achieve their rights .
We as investors and industrialists shall have a protest of their own to show that our rights have not been looked after ,
The guy who died in Haymamarket in USA who fought for rights will be shaking with anger .
Good bless working and also exploiting class
