March in March demonstration
The Japan Times has the story about the "March In March" in Tokyo on March 11:
Workers from all parts of the globe battled wind and rain Sunday to give speeches, performances and then trudge through the streets of Shibuya, Tokyo, calling for job security and equality for all.
About 300 mainly foreign supporters attended the "March In March," which was organized by the National Union of General Workers Nambu Foreign Workers Caucus, Kanagawa City Union, Zentoitsu Workers' Union and Tokyo Occupational Safety and Wealth Center.
"Three main areas are involved in our work," said Peruvian Augusto Tamanaha, from Kanagawa City Union. "The first is dismissal. It's too easy for foreigners to get fired for no or poor reasons. Second is salary issues. And third relates to accidents.
