The article is titled “Workers’ Revenge. China may be communist, but for decades capitalists have run roughshod over labor. Now Chinese workers are standing up for their rights – and that could change the global economy”. Further on the article states “While unions exist in China, they are under the umbrella of the state-managed All-China Federation of Trade Unions, which despite its name has historically shown little interest in defending its members” Rings a bell doesn’t it.

Jista jiftah ghajnejh kemm irid , Joey Muscat, imma daqsxejn tard wisq.
Jinsab maqbud f’morsa li kull ma tmur qed tissikkah u dalwaqt taqtaghlu nidsu.
Tghid mhux ghalhekk ma jridx jippublika dettalji tal-kuntratti sigrieti li ffirma mal-gvern Ciniz?

Martin Scicluna wants to lock the stable door after he helped the horse which has bolted.

What’s done is done. This country has become a lawless country where the law can be bent if not disregarded outright.

The leader of the opposition is being accused of breach of privilege on similar grounds.

Tetrapack cartons cost a LOT, Benna is currently advertising Rockestra 2014 which is already sold out.
Last year the audience applauded for the president and our charming prince Joseph, while it booed when the leader of the opposition’s name was mentioned.

Can anyone ask the “charity” organisers how much it cost to have this Rockestra advert 2014 on the Benna milk carons?

To evict or not to evict , drop court cases , or pay €4.2 million instead of evict?

Mediterranean Film Studios were evicted after the court case was decided.

Armier squatters, bypass the appeals court ruling:

Cafe Premier/Cities Entertainment:case discontinued and an “amicable” solution found , the taxpayer pays of course!

Who will continue to invest in a country where the rule of law is disregarded and an “anything goes” attitude is the order of the day.
