Police lurk as Rangoon strike continues


9 February 2012
Up to 2,000 factory workers on strike in Rangoon have been told they 
face possible dismissal if protests over salary and working conditions do
not end by the weekend.

The Tai-Yi shoe factory employees have until Sunday to return to work,
but a vow to push on until their demands are met has prompted police
to block roads leading to the Chinese-owned establishment in the Hlaing
Tharyar industrial zone.
