Recently one of the comrades wanted to know as to what the programmes of the Association had actually achieved. He was of the strong view that it was of no use to agitate for the association had failed, for instance in computerisation despite all its agitation.
I was surprised at his argument.
What the comrade has failed to understand was that the association did not oppose the computerisation in total but only attempted to prevent the implementation of technology rendering many of us jobless. The Association had succeeded in its endeavour to certain extent. I am sure that those who had watched the progress will agree that the agitation programmes brought a regulated and transparent rules and procedures and saved many from being declared redundant. It is now for the comrade to decide whether the programmes of the Association stopped immediate reduction in man power. Let the ones like this comrade contemplate on this point- what will happen if you do not agitate against the atrocities of the authorities?
With regards,
Commercial comrade.
