  • From May 20 to June 6, nearly 1.8 million garment workers of Bangladesh concentrated in industrial areas in and around the capital Dhaka engaged in a series of simultaneous massive wildcat strikes. During this period, especially from May 20 to May 24 when garment workers’ revolt was at its peak, workers of nearly 4000 factories went on strike. These workers, and other workers from the industrial suburbs, continuously demonstrated and blocked highways connecting industrial suburbs to the capital Dhaka and Dhaka to other cities – Mymensingh, Gazipur, Narayanganj, Ashulia, and Chittagong etc. In the face of this mass revolt, the government resorted to massive repression. In the first one-week, as per official figures, at least 3 workers were shot dead, 3000 injured and several thousands were put into prisons. Till June 6–7, workers in different Export Processing Zones (EPZ) and industrial areas continued to engage in wild cat strikes and demonstrations – most garment factories remained closed. The state proclaimed that factories will open only from June 8 once order is fully restored. (en)
  • 2006ko Dhakako grebak maiatzaren 20tik ekainaren 6ra arte bitartean Bangladeshko jantzigintzako langileek burutu zituzten, Dhakako inguruetan egin zirenak. Periodo horretan, maiatzaren 20tik maiatzaren 24a arte konkretuki, langileen matxinada bere punturik esanguratsuenean zegoenean, 4000 lantegi inguruko langileak grebara batu ziren, lana utziz. Langile hauek eta beste eremu industrialeko langileak manifestazio konstanteak egin, eta garrantzi handiko errepideak moztu zituzten, eremu industrialak Dhaka kapitalarekin konektatzen zuena, eta Dhaka beste hiriekin konektatzen zuena, hala nola, Mymensingh, , , eta Chittagong, etab. Masa errebolta horri erantzun bate emateko, gobernuak errepresio bortitza erabili zuen. Lehenengo astean, iturri ofizialen arabera, 3 langile tiroz erailak izan ziren, 3000 lagun zaurituak izan ziren eta milaka izan ziren espetxeratuak. Ekainaren 6 eta 7 arte, Esportazioa Prozesatzeko Eremuetako (EPZ) langileeketa eremu industrialetakoak grebetan eta manifestazioetan parte hartzen jarraitu zuten, ia jantzi-fabrika guztiak itxiz. Estatuak aldarrikatu zuen fabrikak ekainaren 8tik aurrera bakarrik irekiko zirela behin ordena normalizatzean. (eu)
