The last industrial strike we had in Singapore was led by the late Ong Teng Cheong.
We ask ourselves do we really need strikes to make our voices heard?
Diplomacy is the new way to go!
Secretary General Lim Swee Say of NTUC was quoted to have said “A job is the best welfare, employment is the best protection. Make every job a better job, every worker a better worker.”
The man was also quoted to have said something along the lines of “…it is better for unions who don’t strike and get its way, rather than strike and don’t get its way.”
