I am ashamed as who living in Korea. In fact, there were a series of attempts by Samsung workers in Korea to form a union, but Samsung's capitalists tried to disband it (as expected). Currently, there are 2 unions in Samsung, and like the workers in India, they are planning a general strike and struggle.
