聲援韓國「全國公共服務勞工工會」
遭國家暴力、警察機關鎮壓
聲援
韓國「全國公共服務勞工工會」（KGEU 全公勞） http://inter.kgeu.org/
遭國家暴力、警察機關鎮壓，一百多個獨立工會被強迫關閉 ，急需國際串連聲援！
【背景說明】
韓國「全國公共服務勞工工會」（KGEU 全公勞），五年前以「掃清公職社會腐敗」的目標而成立 ，相對於合法成立的公務員工會「公勞總」有7萬多名會員 ，全公勞則擁有14萬多人的會員。
由於南韓政府不承認公務員有團結、爭議權 （如罷工等權力），甚至在去年國會通過【公務員工會法】，限制六級以下的團體決策權、協商權的範圍，並否定團體爭議權 ，這是主張勞動三權（團結、協商、爭議權）是基本工會權利的全公勞所無法接受的。因此政府認定全公勞是「非法的」。即使公務員理應有 行使政治活動的基本權利，對全公勞介入地方選舉，公開支持「民主勞動黨」，主張廢止每年北韓的軍事演習等主張 ，南韓政府確認定其行動為非法。
從9月22日凌晨開始政府派出鎮暴警察，強制關閉南韓各地140間 的「全公勞」工會辦公室，逮捕多名工會成員以及「Altogeth er」與「民主勞動黨」等聲援組織的成員。事實上 ，這次政府積極鎮壓公務員工會的行動，目的在於推動公共服務領域的新自由主義政策，例如改變工資結構及公務員退休金等等，這是 「全公勞」過去所堅決反對的。另一方面，全公勞一貫站在進步陣營，反對當權者，而威脅到政府的特權，因此「全公勞 」一直是政府亟欲除之而後快的眼中釘，雖然工會辦公室在這次鎮壓中被警察砸毀、強迫關閉，但不等於工會的垮台，且在這過程當中有工會 的新支部出現。最近「全公勞」對政府提出告訴，並且將在10月發動 抗爭。
我們可以看到最堅決挑戰政府特權，反對新自由主義政策對工人大眾傷 害的工人組織，赤裸裸地遭到政府最惡劣的暴力壓制 ，這並非只在南韓，我們應當對這惡劣的暴行提出最嚴正的抗議 ，聲援南韓的工人兄弟姊妹們！
Solidarity needed!
The crack down on the KGEU still continues today!
Your solidarity is needed!
團結是必要的!
對 全公勞 KGEU的攻擊行動今天仍然持續！
你的團結是必要的！
（翻譯：王英倩）
今天（9.29）是對全公勞當地辦公室攻擊行動的 第四天，全國111個辦公室被強迫關閉，從上週五開始每個工作天，工會辦公室持續受到暴力攻擊，不少工會成員遭到逮捕 ，從清晨到午夜，鎮暴警察和特別雇用的暴徒入侵工會辦公室。
許多全公勞的辦公室被暴力闖入並被迫關閉 ，鎮暴警察和暴徒用滅火器、鐵鎚、電鑽等作為武器破窗而入，甚至在牆壁上開出一個洞當作攻進辦公室的入口。全公勞的成員被強 行拖出辦公室並遭到逮捕，則以鐵板或拒馬將工會辦公室封鎖。
全公勞的成員正在全國各地，奮力對抗當地政府和鎮 暴警察施加的殘忍又野蠻的突擊，這是一場民主獨立的工會和威權政府 的戰爭，也是一場相信所有工人有組織自由和工會應由政府主導意識之 間的戰爭。
我們現在急需你的相挺！
請將你的相挺訊息寄給全公勞！
在這關鍵時刻，它會對我們的成員發揮強大的鼓舞力 量。
它會讓我們的成員知道我們並不孤單，
請將你的抗議信寄給南韓政府！
讓他們知道世界正在看，如此殘暴的鎮壓是不被允許 的！

KGEU Breaking News 060927
September 27, 2006
[URGENT]
Your solidarity is needed!
Today is the 4th day of the crack down on the KGEU local offices. 111 local offices were forcefully closed down nation wide. Every working day has seen the violent attacks on the union offices and the arrests of the union members since last Friday. The riot police and the specially hire thugs have raided the union office from dawn till midnight.
Many KGEU offices were violently broken into and closed down. Riot police and thugs armed with fire extinguishers, fire-fighting dust, hammers, claw hammers, hammer drills and power saws broke through the windows or even by making an opening in the wall to storm into union offices. KGEU members were forcefully pulled out of the union offices and arrested. The union offices the union offices were sealed off with iron plates or bars in many cases.
KGEU members struggle all around the country against inhumane and barbaric raids by local governments and riot police.
It was a war between a democratic and independent trade union and an authoritarian and barbaric government. It was a war between those who believe in freedom of association for all workers and those who believe that trade union rights could be subject to government rulings.
We need your solidarity now!
Please send your solidarity message to the KGEU! It will greatly encourage and empower our members in this critical moment. It will let our members know we are not alone.
Please send your protest letter to the Korean government! Let them know that the world is witnessing and that this brutal repression can not be accepted.
The addresses and contact points will be attached in the end of this news break.

From 06:00, the riot police were deployed around the union office in Bucheon City in Gyeonggi-do(province). And the execution officials with the riot police began to try to break into the union office. Welding machines and hammers were used. At 07:00, the doors were removed. 25 union members were resisting the violent closure inside the office, to which they even chained themselves. But the riot police and the execution officials took over the office at 07:45 and the union members were pulled out. (Photos from struggles at Bucheon)
An attack on the KGEU Gyeonggi Gwacheon Chapter started from 10:20 with the riot police deployed. The riot police broke the walls with hammers to sweep into the union office. The union members inside were severely beaten up and arrested at 11:30. 18 members from KGEU and solidarity organisations were arrested and taken to the local police stations. 4 of those were seriously injured and hospitalised.
In Suwon, the riot police and the execution officials broke into the union office at 09:30. The doors and the whole walls were broken down. The union members were pulled out by the riot police and a woman member was just thrown away.
7 more KGEU chapters in Gyeonggi-do were forcefully closed down.

Now a protest rally is being held in front of the building and sit-in protests inside and outside the union office will be held overnight.
