Bridgestone Tire Workers Strike in Wuxi, Jiangsu

• Date: Apr 7 2008 Time: 19:26
• Description:
  From CLB: 4 月初，结束日期不详. 江苏无锡普利司通轮胎公司. 数百人 不满厂方增加工资幅度太低以及因增加工资而取消大部分福利. Several hundred workers. Complaints that pay increases are too small and that most benefits have been abolished. Strike. Outcome unclear. [Note: I can't find the original report and therefore cannot identify the precise date and am placing this at the end of the first week. CLB's English explanation says that the source was RFA; this and the fact that CLB re-reported the event leads me to list it as "verified"].
