CWU is correct to support YCL as the summit is also intended to make a difference in the lives of young people.
CWU is also correct to reject a march to the house of the President and i support its rejection. Those who are marching to it must know that it will not help to give a memorandum to the family of the President. The ANCYL is marching to the Union Building that is not the house of President JZ. That is where we are going! Maybe CWU will join us after this clarity because i remember how its members were complaining about labour brokers in a public hearing that was held in Germiston, 2009. I also remember MTN staff that once complained in this forum. -----Original Message----- From: masilo lazarus Sent: 26/10/2011 11:25:36 am Subject: Re: [YCLSA Discussion] CWU SUPPORTS SECOND YCL JOB FOR YOUTH SUMMIT CWU statement proves nothing, but an insult to the ANC youth league and its members.CWU represents majority of discuoraged, vulnerable,labour brokered and underpaid membership. It is suprising that such a union representing such a strata of the labour force could stand firm and point a finger on president Malema,members and other people who find it relavent to support such a course. My questions to CWU remains: Do you, as the union believes going to a conference centre and listen to ministers telling you what path to be followed in creating employment, will it then get rid of labour brokering,if the answer is no, then so what? Do you, as the union believes that going to the conference centre and discuss how to create employment will help to solve conditions members of your union do find themselves in,if the answer is no, then so what? Do you, as the union believes in changing the conditions of your members, if the answer is yes, then so what? Do you as CWU, knows properly the conditions that your members are facing, if the answer is yes, the what is wrong with the ANCYL marching to the presidency to demand for abolishment of labour brokers, land and houses for the poor, electricity and proper sanitation? Do you as the union, believes that such a decision to boycott the ANCYL mass action and if a desicion to do so was based in consultation with your members, i mean the same members who are labour brokered would have agreed with you and if you are not certain of your answer, then so what? Then so what? --- On Tue, 10/25/11, matankana mothapo <[email protected]> wrote: From: matankana mothapo <[email protected]> Subject: [YCLSA Discussion] CWU SUPPORTS SECOND YCL JOB FOR YOUTH SUMMIT To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, October 25, 2011, 6:10 PM CWU SUPPORTS SECOND YCL JOB FOR YOUTH SUMMIT 25/10/2011 The Communication Workers Union (CWU), the largest union in the Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) sector, an affiliate of Cosatu supports the second Job Youth Summit organised by Young Communist League (YCL SA) of the South African Communists Party (SACP). CWU appreciates the initiative of the Young Reds, YCL SA to mobilise all young people from all different political parties, civil society organisations and government to find solutions on clouded youth unemployment in our country. CWU will fully participate in this summit to seek guidance and intervention from public and private sectors particularly ICT Sector, where we as the union we organise, to create jobs and empower young people in our country. We are convinced that this summit will come up with the resolution of championing the interest of young people and not play with the mind of young people by marching to President J.G Zuma’s house. As CWU, we are of the view that they are no Jobs in President Zuma’s house. CWU wishes you all the best in your summit.
