Wei Jingsheng as a Keynote Speaker of Labor Rights Forum in Orange Country, California, and Met with Students at Soka University of America

 

 

Mr. Wei Jingsheng was in Orange County, California from May 11 to 13.  Mr. Wei was invited by the Vietnam Human Rights Network (VHRN) to discuss joint effort of the two national human rights groups and was the keynote speaker for their human rights forum with special focus on labor rights.

 

The other speakers and participants included representatives from the Committee for Human Rights in Vietnam, former leaders of the independent labor union under the Republic of Vietnam, the Vietnamese Catholic Movement, the Vietnamese Community in Southern California, and various human rights activists as well as legal professionals in Southern California.

 

The participants unanimously pledge their support for the cause of labor rights in Vietnam and China, including the rights to form independent unions, to organize labor strikes, and to work under safe and humane conditions as stipulated by the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights and International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, together with such International Labor Organization's agreements as Convention 87, Convention 98, and Convention 135. The Conference also pledges to promote other basic human rights and fair trade.

 

In the morning of May 11, Mr. Wei met with the leadership of the VHRN to explore ways to cooperate and coordinate the labor rights campaign.  In the afternoon Mr. Wei spoke to the general membership of VHRN.

 

In the morning of May 12, Mr. Wei spoke to the students of Soka University of America. He was enthusiastically received. The question-and-answer and discussion with staff and students continued through lunch until 3 pm.

 

Again on the morning of May 13, Mr. Wei conferred with the VHRN. The result is a Coordination Committee charged with formulation of structure and guidelines for the campaign; with the provision of other national groups joining in the future.
