Activists Slam Labor Laws for Curbs on Strikes


9 March 2012
Activists in Burma have criticized labor laws passed last year 
by the country’s nominally democratic Parliament that block the right 
of worker unions to conduct independent industrial strikes.
Unions can only walk out after winning approval from the Labor 
Federation under the new legislation. The body is yet to be formed 
as is seen by many as the most controversial aspect of the new Labor 
Organization Law passed as part of recent reforms in the 
military-dominated nation.
