Maybank dismisses 2 workers without just cause and terrorizes others

Maybank Bhd unlawfully dismissed Abdul Jamil Jalaludeen and Chen Ka Fatt for taking this picture outside the United Nations in Geneva early this year. They held the banner to symbolise Maybank Bhd’s failure to respect workers’ rights and to pay just remuneration to their lowest paid employees. The dismissal was Maybank Bhd’s style of suppressing and oppressing its workers.

Maybank further displayed its arrogant contempt for both Jamil and Chen, as their customers, by cancelling their credit cards and leaving them in a state of impoverishment. Chen only has 3 more years to retire and loses all privileges that he has rightfully earned as an employee; while Jamil cannot provide for his 3 children and wife any longer because of Maybank Bhd’s animalistic actions.

 

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

We, Bank Workers want to serve the Rakyat better but we are deeply troubled by the tyranny of Maybank Bhd.

We condemn the cruelty of Maybank and the failure by the Ministry of Human Resources to protect these workers from the brutality of Maybank Bhd, despite the clear encroachment of employee rights.

Please sign the online campaign below to help us convey your support for Justice for Jamil-Chen Campaign against the bullying of Maybank Bhd. Your protest will be channelled to the Prime Minister of Malaysia urging him to take action against Maybank Bhd, a GLC, and the government officers for the abuse of statutory powers and utter neglect of duty to protect the Rakyat.

Friends in the Committee Against Political Repression -

Tomorrow will be the anti-war march on Devon Street to mark the 9th
anniversary of the Iraq War.

If you will be there and can help distribute literature about FBI
repression, a few of us will be there with some signs and leaflets.
Look for us at the corner of Devon and Hoyne.

March Against the Wars
On the 9th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq

Sunday, March 18
March in Chicago's leading South Asian neighborhood
Assemble 3 PM:  Devon Avenue & Hoyne Street

The Obama administration is peddling a myth:  That the wars are over
and peace is on the horizon.

But the facts tell a different story:

++ U.S. and Israel are threatening war on Iran, recycling many of the
lies used to justify the war on Iraq.  With Iraq, George W. Bush
claimed the country had "weapons of mass destruction." With Iran,
Obama supports crippling sanctions, the same precursor to war that
Bush used against Iraq.  He hypocritically threatens war against Iran
for its alleged nuclear arms program – while supporting nuclear-armed
Israel with billions of dollars in arms each year.

++ Annual drone strikes in the tribal areas of Pakistan have tripled
since Obama became president, killing thousands of innocent people,
and have expanded to Yemen and Somalia.  At the end of January, Obama
said his drone strikes target only "people who are on a list of active
terrorists" – as if you can identify who is a "terrorist" from 20,000
feet.  Last year was the fifth year in a row of increased deaths by
U.S. drone strikes.

++ The U.S. keeps silent about human rights abuses against minorities
in countries that it is allied with, while hypocritically lecturing
about human rights abuses by governments it opposes.  In U.S.-allied
Pakistan, over 4000 Balouchis have been "disappeared" by the security
forces and hundreds killed through torture, with their bodies being
thrown into the street. In U.S.-allied Kuwait, immigrants – the
overwhelming majority of the population – have virtually no rights.
In U.S.-allied Saudi Arabia, women have few rights and gays are
subject to execution, yet millions of U.S. arms flow there each year.

As the Wikileaks revelations of U.S. diplomatic cables showed, the
U.S. government, regardless of which party controls it, supports the
1% and opposes the democratic aspirations and self-determination of
the 99% in all nations.

++ The U.S.-sponsored Iraq war continues – subcontracted to private
military contractors and an unpopular puppet regime instructed by the
world's largest embassy and its huge "diplomatic" corps.

++ Obama announced that his "surge" of troops into Afghanistan would
end this September, but that would still leave 70,000 U.S. troops
there, along with other NATO troops and the forces of a regime which
stole the last election and is widely viewed as among the most corrupt
on the planet.  Last year was the deadliest year yet for civilians in
Afghanistan, up 8% from the year before.

++ Obama continues to sell arms to Gulf dictatorships such as Bahrain
(recently invaded by the U.S.-armed Saudi Arabian dictatorship), which
stands accused by its own human rights commission of gunning down
non-violent protesters and torturing prisoners to death.

++ The U.S. continues to support the military dictatorship in Egypt
while hypocritically calling for regime-change in Syria and ignoring
reports of systemic torture and pogroms by its new client regime in
Libya.

++ Obama continues to arm Israel at a rate higher than any other
country in the world, even though it is responsible for systematic
human rights abuses including theft of Palestinian land, widespread
imprisonment without charge or trial, torture, and refusal to allow
refugees to return to their homeland.

At a time when social services from mental health services to
libraries to public transit are being slashed, the U.S. spends as much
on war as the rest of the world combined.  Demand an end to this
insanity.  Support our march for peace on the 9th anniversary of the
invasion of Iraq.

PEACE, JUSTICE, SOLIDARITY:
A Foreign Policy for the International Working Class

As many prepare to protest NATO (and for peace and justice!) in Chicago this May, the shape of US foreign policy is a foremost issue.  From "class war" to the "War on Terror," how has U.S. corporate dominated foreign policy impacted workers both at home and abroad? How do we envision a foreign policy that puts people before profits?

How do we build international working-class solidarity, mutually beneficial trade and cooperation rather than ruthless competition and imperialist intervention and aggression?

Join us for a panel discussion to explore these questions and work to build a fairer, freer world with:

Terry Davis - Chicago Labor for Peace, Justice, and Prosperity
Aaron Hughes - Iraq Veterans Against the War
Bamshad Mobasher - Oak Park Coalition for Truth and Justice and CPUSA

When: Thursday, March 22nd, 6:30-8:00 PM
Where: The Unity Center, 3339 S Halsted Ave, Chicago, IL

Light refreshments will be served at 6:30 PM; discussion to begin at 7.

Host: Haymarket Labor Forum. For more info: 773-446-9925

On Tuesday, we launched our campaign calling on state Attorneys General from around the country to stand up for common sense campaign finance laws and to continue our fight against Citizens United.

We've seen what the Citizens United ruling has done to federal politics -- attack ads flooded the airwaves in 2010 and are dominating the Republican presidential primaries right now. We can't allow that same sort of unlimited corporate spending to infiltrate state and local races.

This is simple: It's Common Sense v. Citizens United. Sign on to get your Attorney General involved today.

Across the country, we are winning in the court of public opinion -- 80% of the general public opposes the Citizens United ruling. But now, we are winning in the appellate courts as well. Attorney General Steve Bullock has fought back against allowing Citizens United to take root in his state of Montana. He championed keeping common sense election laws on the books all the way to the Montana Supreme Court -- and he won. It's time that other state Attorneys General do the same.

Over 50,000 DFA members have already signed on -- Help get us to 100,000 signatures!

Two years ago, the Supreme Court decided that big corporations and the super rich have a "right" to spend unlimited amounts of money in our elections. Today, and every day until this ridiculous law is overturned, we will fight back.

Together we can defeat Citizens United.

What do President Obama, Rupert Murdoch and Rush Limbaugh have in common?
They're all ignoring a massive public outcry against media consolidation as Obama's FCC favors new rules that would allow conglomerates to gobble up more local media across America.

Don't Be Ignored. Stop Media Consolidation Now.

By signing this letter to the Federal Communications Commission, you're joining thousands of people who have already told the agency to stop this latest attack on independent media. And the public response has been overwhelming: So far more than nine out of every 10 comments to the FCC opposes letting broadcasters snatch up even more media outlets.
Unfortunately, Washington is not listening to us ... yet.
President Obama was once an outspoken opponent of media consolidation. In 2007, he said that protecting local, independent and diverse media was "critical to the public interest."
But times have changed. The president has failed to speak up as his FCC has sided with Murdoch and big-media lobbyists in a push for unchecked consolidation.
Last year, Obama also stood on the sidelines while his FCC approved the Comcast-NBC Universal merger — one of the largest and potentially most disastrous media mergers in history. Now Obama's FCC is on the verge of weakening the rule that prevents one company from owning both broadcast stations and newspapers in the same market.
Murdoch has long lobbied Washington for this change, which would allow News Corp. to buy up even more local television stations and newspapers in markets from New York City to San Diego. And it would give Clear Channel, Earth's largest radio conglomerate — and the company that syndicates Rush Limbaugh's program to more than 600 stations — the power to dominate the dial even more.
Tell the FCC to Side with the People, Not Big Media

Nobody — not Rupert Murdoch or other powerful media moguls — should be allowed to monopolize our print and broadcast media and crowd out independent voices. But corporate special interests have prevailed up until this point, dictating ownership rules to the FCC. And the results are appalling: People of color own just 3 percent of our country's full-power TV stations and just 7.7 percent of all radio stations. Women own just 6 percent of all broadcast outlets.
By entering thousands of our comments into the public record, we can remind the FCC commissioners to stand up to media giants — and to remember Obama’s pledge to foster more diverse media in America.
By creating real limits to media consolidation, the FCC can pave the way for the kind of independent media that a healthy democracy needs. But the agency needs to hear from you first.
Thanks,
Libby Reinish

End the War in Afghanistan NOW! Emergency Demonstration Wednesday, March 14 at 5pm Federal Plaza in Chicago (Corner of Adams & Dearborn) We encourage all of our members, supporters and friends to join us for this important emergency rally on Wednesday, March 14 at 5pm at Federal Plaza in Chicago to call for an immediate end to the Afghanistan war. For more info call 773-463-03111 ANSWER Coalition Press Release: The March 11 cold-blooded murder of at least 16 Afghan civilians by a U.S. Army soldier is the latest in a decade-long history of atrocities carried out by the NATO occupiers. It will be remembered as the tipping point in a criminal war that grows more criminal with each passing month. The “apologies” by President Obama and U.S. commanding General John Allen are nothing by brazen hypocrisy and will ring hollow in the ears of the Afghan people. Occupying armies, unable to distinguish insurgent fighters from the population as a whole, inevitably propagate a racist ideology among their troops. This officially promoted racism and contempt toward the occupied people is what produces atrocity after atrocity, and insult after insult. The only way these horrors will end is by ending the war. We join with the people of Afghanistan and the anti-war movement around the world in demanding the immediate withdrawal of all U.S. and NATO occupying forces. The ANSWER Coalition organized protests on the first day of the U.S. war on Afghanistan in 2001 and has been working to end the war for the past decade.

Pink slipped for peeing. It sounds like a ridiculous possibility, but for this mother of three, it is a harsh reality. On Friday, Australia’s Toll Group fired Xiomara Perez as part of this $8.8 billion global transportation giant’s campaign aimed at scaring its American workers into ending their current fight to form a union. The respected workplace leader was retaliated against for her support of unionization and literally cited and then fired for making an emergency pit stop at a McDonalds. Tell Toll Group managers to reinstate Xiomara Perez now! Toll Group has waged an anti-worker agenda on their Los Angeles based port truck drivers ever since these hard-working men and women took a stand against their deplorable third-world like working conditions. Xiomara was among the first to speak out against the company’s filthy outhouses that lacked running water, and when she needed to find a public restroom to relieve herself to continue her workday, Ralph Lauren and Guess Jeans’ trucking carrier cut her loose! According to Toll, once on the road drivers are not allowed to make a pit stop – no matter how many hours drivers are sitting in traffic. But as a professional driver, Xiomara adhered to U.S. Department of Transportation regulations that require any hauler to pull over if they feel faint, fatigued, or are experiencing any other physical ailment that may keep them from safely operating the truck.  So why does this mega corporation finds this quick stop unacceptable? Xiomara happens to be one of the most vocal supporters of the union, according to her co-workers who believe this outrageous firing was a message to all workers that they will be punished if they want their collective bargaining rights.  Tell Toll Group’s top executives to stop the absurd attacks on Amer... Yesterday, a committee of Xiomara’s male co-workers delivered a letter with a demand to Toll Group managers to immediately reinstate the truck driver of seven years.

You're Invited to a Clean Air Cities Conference Call on March 22. Dear Joe, Thanks to our volunteer Clean Air Advocates, in just a few short months more than a dozen cities have gone on record asking the Obama government to use the Clean Air Act to reduce carbon emissions and other pollutants driving climate change. In the name of clean air and public health, we want to work with you to continue this winning streak and make your city the next Clean Air City. That's why we've organized a conference call. I'm Rose Braz, the Center's climate campaign director, and I'll be on the line along with two of our stalwart Clean Air Advocates who successfully got their cities -- Minneapolis and Oxnard -- to pass resolutions urging President Obama and the EPA to rapidly, ambitiously apply the Clean Air Act to cut carbon pollution. We'll update you on the campaign, discuss what's worked and what hasn't, hear what you need and answer your questions. Your efforts are becoming increasingly important as the Clean Air Act, our best hope for slowing climate change in the United States, comes under intense assault in Congress. Big Oil wants to stop game-changing efforts, just begun, that could make real progress in the urgent struggle to curb climate change. Together our cities can send a strong message to Washington that we want breathable air and a livable climate.   RSVP for this conference call to discuss how our collective momentum will drive Clean Air Cities resolutions to pass in all 50 states. RSVP here to join the Clean Air Cities Conference Call.
