Congratulations for another successful picket!

18th March 2008 add another important history into UTES Chronology. Despite the rain since morning, it didn't bother the members much though. I believe that with the member's strong determination and prayers there is a sudden change of weather just before the picket start - indeed what a blessing!

The turnout was fantastic and with their RED outfits I believe that it will show to the management that the workers are really serious and they mean business!!

I am so proud to learn that Sibu Branch members are also staging their picket - Hip! Hip! Hurray Sibu!!

This is the time where the workers need support. Also present are members from Sister's Union and also the general public - See how they show their support by their waving of hands from inside their vehicles, sounding of their vehicle's horn and even up to the extent of putting their thumbs up!!

Once again I would like to say 'Tahniah dan syabas" to all, especially all members of UTES. Continue to support the Union for the betterment of all workers in TM. Remember that without the members there will be no Union and with all your strong support, UTES will forever be STRONG! So..... Solidarity Forever!!

We are indeed blessed that day! I believed GOD will blessed us for anything that is done for a good cause.....especially INJUSTICE done to WORKERS!

You cannot fight against INJUSTICE alone.We have to do it TOGETHER!

This picket is considered as....
"The battle of RIGHT agains MIGHT"

HIDUP UTES and GOd blessed!

You are most welcome!

Being an ex-utes officials, though I left TM and the union,the members' concerns are always close to my heart- workers at heart.

Though some of them seems not so happy with me, well that is life! I believe that each individuals have the right to make their own decisions and be responsible for it.

Again I am most happy to be there and meeting up with old friends. Once more 'Congrates, tahniah & syabas'

SINCERE and HONEST Leaders will always support the union activities (eventhough they are no more the officials).

SINCERITY comes from the heart!

Why I say this?
We have a number of ex-UTES officials (still working in TM)who never support the Union activities (what more to join in the picket).

Sometimes I ponder......
Whether they come in to serve the Union SINCERELY or just for the sake of getting positions only!

UTES need more ex-officials like you!

Anyway, once again THANKS!
