Viet Nam’s entry into TPP may be delayed if reform is not available.
In 2008, there were 1020 wildcat strikes. Right now, collective disputes usually turn into wildcats. A committee of government, VGCL, MOLISA comes in and gets a result. But this is a very sensitive area.
Three potential types of organizing might take place:
The VGCL reforms quickly and develops a range of unions and representational processes;
Some international unions and others outside Viet Nam present themselves and offer alternatives;
Some employers may set up private unions which will block the organizing of new unions.

Labor Relations And Unions:"The poor quality of the meal is the main reason let to strikes in Vietnam"

That is why a lot of workers for the company went on strike for improved meals, but the issue is still not resolved.

However, if the leadership thinks the stale food smells rancid, how could leadership expect wor...

ABOUT ME

It was once my dream to be able to make a living out of job as a Blogger and Youtuber. And today I will share my daily life with the world. My home town in the South Cost Central of Viet Nam. We are planning dragon fruit and vegetables. My Mom Nhan takes care of all the family as an older teacher, and my younger sister Huong is a student in HCM City.  I am really thankful for the technology today, that makes it possible to live in a secluded place like this, surrounded by the field of dragon fruit, but to still be able to reach the whole world. It’s a beautiful combination. I mostly spend my time on filmmaking and photography and upload on YouTube. I also share glimpses from our daily life living in this beautiful, rural place in the VietNam countryside.
