Fiji’s Dictatorship Moves Against Trade Unions - ITUC OnLine

http://www.ituc-csi.org/fiji-s-dictatorship-moves-against.html Fiji’s military dictatorship has tightened its control over the country’s economy with a new decree outlawing trade union rights across key sectors. The UN’s International Labour Organisation has accused the regime of demonstrating “the same lack of concern for the views of the international community as it has for the rights and aspirations of its own people”, while the other governments of the region, through the Pacific Islands Forum, have expressed “continuing deep concern at the deteriorating human rights situation”.
