Labor strife in Ssangyong

Listen

Two Ssangyong Motor union members protest atop a 70-meter chimney at the company’s plant in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, Sunday. They say they will not come down until management agrees to reinstate 153 laid-off workers. The union is protesting against a recent Supreme Court ruling that a mass layoff by the company in 2009 was lawful. / Yonhap
