After the PTCL workforce, now it is
the workers of WAPDA who are faced with the prospect of
privatisation. Such a measure would be detrimental to the interests
not only of the WAPDA workers but of all the workers and poor of
Pakistan. The PTCL workers put up a brave fight but were let down by
the union leaders. Let this not happen again!

The regime in Pakistan is indeed a callous one. Not only did it show
little concern for the hundreds of thousands hit by the quake in
Kashmir and Northern Pakistan, now it wants to exploit this moment of
bewilderment among the masses to speed up the process of privatization,
starting with the Karachi Steel Mills. The PTUDC is mobilizing,
starting with a conference of union and workers delegates this Saturday
in Karachi.
