For anyone who wants a thorough analysis of the issues behind the recent mass movement in Vietnam against new SEZ's, I highly recommend this article. Angie Ngoc Tran has long been one of the best writers on Vietnam labour issues. The article shows both the deeply anti-worker nature of these latest SEZs but also the way they so clearly rising Chinese imperialist domination of the region. Workers say no to Vietnams Special Exploitation Zones Angie Ngoc Tran - 18 Jul, 2018 On Sunday, 10 June 2018, thousands of people took to the streets in major Vietnamese cities—Nha Trang, Binh Thuan, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City, among others. Academics, independent journalists, and overseas Vietnamese signed petitions to join in their protest against the Draft Law on the 99-year lease of the three Special Administrative and Economic coastal zones in Vietnam. Workers, too, went on strike in two industrial zones in Long An and Tien Giang provinces. These collective actions led to a concession from the government: it would delay the National Assembly’s ratification of the Draft Law to its next meeting. http://www.newmandala.org/workers-say-no-vietnams-special-exploitation-zones/ _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
