Greetings.
Hope, you are well informed about our Comming strike.
Pls concider that-this strike is not in a perticular factory-its country-wide.Total number of garment factory in Bangladesh are 3200 and total number of workers are 1.6 million. So its very hard and difficults and also a big chalenge for us.Our financial strenght is very weak because till now the minimum wage in this sector is only Tk.800 $ 14.03 per month and most of our members can not subscribe.
We have allready publised 50,000 poster at the mid of May and 1,00000 leaflet in the first week of June.We have to publicise another 2 poster.One from unity council, the number will be 50,000 and another will be from NGWF, number will be 30,000.Can you will be able to provide us any financial support from your Organization, your members or your friends ?
Pls let us to know urgently.
In solidarity
