Bam inendorso ng TUCP
MANILA, Philippines -Inendorso ng grupong Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) isa sa mga pinakamala­king grupo ng mga manggagawa sa buong bansa ang kandidatura ni Benig­no Bam Aquino. Ang TUCP ay may hu­migit-kumulang na 1.2 milyon miyembro mula sa halos 30 federations sa iba’t ibang bahagi ng bansa. Ang pag-endorso ay pi­nangunahan ni TUCP partylist Rep. Raymond De­mocrito Mendoza, at kinabilangan ng iba pang mga kandidatong sinusuportahan ng TUCP. Ayon sa TUCP, si Aquino ay ka­bilang sa mga senatorial bets na “ipinakita ang ka­nilang paninindigan na suportahan ang ‘legislated wage increase’ sa 16th Cong­ress.”

Workers mark Labor Day celebration with protests
MANILA, Philippines - Thousands of workers across the country marked Labor Day yesterday with protests against what they called the failure of the Aquino administration to address their demands for higher wages and better working conditions. Workers converged and held rallies at different points in Metro Manila, including Mendiola, Liwasang Bonifacio and outside Quiapo Church where Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle officiated a Mass for workers. Police said the rallies were peaceful. Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), the country’s largest labor group, accused President Aquino of being insensitive to the needs of poor workers after emerging reportedly empty-handed from a dialogue with the Chief Executive on the eve of Labor Day.

Senatorial race Tom can’t promise 12-0 for Team PNoy
CEBU, Philippines - Cebu City south district Representative Tomas Osmeña admitted that he cannot promise a 12-0 win for the Team PNoy senatorial candidates in the city. “I am just one vote.

Workers unhappy after Palace meet
MANILA, Philippines - Labor leaders yesterday went home disappointed after a dialogue with President Aquino at Malacañang. Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), the country’s largest labor group, said Aquino failed to offer anything substantial to improve the condition of workers. “We were expecting something to hold onto, something to begin working on. But there was none. Trade unions and labor groups are at a loss,” TUCP spokesman Alan Tanjusay said.
