Independent trade unions and treachery the rights of workers and small farmers and producers in Egypt

Although the authorities announced that the former regime has ended but there are evidences assure on the violation of the producers' rights still happen every day and that the corrupted are still controlling the destinies of our country. Over the past week, the Land Centre held several meetings in Beni Suef, with many of the workers and peasants in different villages, namely:
- Mountain of Light Village - Biba
- Sannour Village - Bani Suef
- El zaraby Village - Bani Suef
- El fashn - Beni Suef
The peasants stressed on the deterioration of the agricultural services presented by the government has become a key feature in these meetings and the corrupts of The Bank of Development and Agricultural Credit are still messing with handling the freedom of citizens and they are jailed and a monument to them and still the Awqaf and the agrarian reform and property of the state claims ownership of the territory of the Azab housing and send warnings to the imprisonment of citizens to force them to repay the amounts under various pretexts such as rent or resources for prime minister as if the two control our destinies did not yet know how the distribution of state resources owned by all Egyptians and how they managed the previous governments, looting and corruption alarming and neglected deliberately services and care that must be provided to its citizens, such as sanitation and clean drinking water and building hospitals, free treatment and care, educational and stolen the country's resources (See Suez Canal revenues, how is distributed in the age of looting)
The peasants who attended the meetings assured that the revolution did not lead so far to tangible positive results in the direction of access to their rights, whether in agriculture or secure decent living life.
The workers of some factories that attended the meetings, such as factory workers, cement and quarry workers, compost and the staff of Station sixth agricultural emphasized low wages and poor services and poor conditions of the right to work to maintain especially with regard to health care and social insurance services and holidays and trade union freedom and job security. The participants in the four villages visited by the Centre to set up unions for employees agriculture, organic fertilizer, quarrying and by providing papers to establish the Directorate of Manpower to maintain.
But the regrettable thing is that the workers and small farmers after they fill out forms of trade unions and the preparation of regulations commensurate with ensuring their rights at work, agriculture, safe, decent and improve their living conditions and defend their interests, refused to Directorate of Manpower receipt of papers claiming that the new regulation has not issued by the Minister after.
The staff's refusal to implement the statements of Minister of Manpower published in Al Ahram newspaper, which reported that the right to form independent trade unions and political parties, trade unions and associations have the right to exercise its work immediately upon notification to the administrative body, a crime worthy of punishment, especially if we believe that the Minister of Manpower government employees must be committed to his subordinates his decisions! In addition, the notification of refusal to form trade unions is a violation of the Declaration of Principles issued by the Egyptian government, which guarantees the right of workers to establish independent trade unions and the right to administer its affairs and to develop regulations
This has called for workers and small farmers of the need for the Minister issuing a denial, including Al-Ahram newspaper published in its issue dated on 13.03.2011 or punish managers of directorates in the governorates, which stopped the implementation of various decisions of the Minister to stop the reproduction of rural media and trafficking of the rights of citizens.
And subjected the farmers and workers from the new government, which refuses to sweep the ministries of the tails of corruption languishing in the corners of the country to block progress and renaissance of our country and asserts that he can not build Egypt's other workers, peasants and all the producers, but a revolution fact overthrown and cleanse the country of the remnants of the authorities that was looted our country and overcome the masses of Egyptian people, which January 25 removed the revolution some symbols.
He hopes the center, workers and farmers who met to continue the revolution to become our country's most beautiful countries and available to every Egyptian security, freedom and equality.
