The union federation FITTTAMPS has answered ITF’s call for intersectional cooperation. Its port worker members in Colón spread along different points in the city on 12 October and distributed more than 5,000 leaflets promoting this year’s campaign slogan on the need to be unionised. Their main target was bus and taxi drivers in the urban area and truck drivers getting to and leaving the city port. (Email report by Ana Beatriz Duarte)
