Inflation, unemployment, privatization It will campaign among the workers to form an anti-neoliberalism commission against neoliberalism and will soon launch a movement. Neoliberalism means giving unfettered freedom to capital. That is, freeing capital from state control and leaving the people at the mercy of the capitalist market. The IMF, World Bank and other imperialist institutions are institutions of neoliberalism. The ruling class of Pakistan is totally a victim of imperialist institutions. All political and religious parties of Pakistan are instrumental in implementing neoliberal agendas. The task of NGOs and Malayit organizations is to destroy the element of resistance from the working class by distorting the class consciousness. Therefore, the Labor Qaumi Movement Pakistan is trying to form a party organization of the Anti-Neoliberalism Commission to organize the working class of Pakistan and to increase the resistance movement, which will begin on March 9, 2024 in Faisalabad with the inflation, unemployment, privatization and dead protest. In the third week of May, there will be a rally to disapprove the IMF policies in Islamabad. Labor National Movement Pakistan believes that neoliberalism is an attack on 250 million people of Pakistan. This is the economic attack that our upper class, the military establishment and the aristocracy do to squeeze our blood. That is, state institutions and corporations should be sold to capitalists, government institutions should be privatized, government hospitals should be abolished, that’s why Danesh schools are being promoted by NGOs and government schools are being promoted under the guise of free treatment in the name of health cards. Treatment facilities are being evaded, PIA, WAPDA, Railways, Steel Mills, Postal, Utilities, Gas, Municipal, WASA and other institutions and government corporations should be privatized. Apart from this, anti-worker labor policies such as piece rate, contractualization, daily wages and contract system are being introduced to continue open looting and exploitation of capitalists. That is, social security pensions, death grants, housing, medical pensions and other benefits should be abolished and the profit of the capitalist should be increased. By ending the subsidy to the farmers, the farmers are ending the cultivation of crops at the mercy of the market, by fixing the prices of electricity, fertilizers and drugs at the base of prices. By implementing these policies, bread is taken away from the common man by increasing the prices of food and all his labor is bought at cheap wages to meet the daily bread. Neoliberal policies create competition in the market as to who will sell the labor at the lowest price, when his labor is not sold even in Pakistan, he sells it in the cave and now the exploiting class of all countries of the world is trying to sell it. For maximum profit, workers should be available at minimum wages and workers who do not have the headache of accommodation, medical pension, allowances and other benefits in return for wages. The competition for housing needs, housing rents and the dream of owning a home has driven up land prices to such an extent that rampant construction is being done which is dangerous to the environment and human lives. Working colleagues. The Labor National Movement is the voice of the working class of Pakistan and believes that the neoliberalism IMF policies have bankrupted the country and these 40 years of inflation, unemployment and economic depression have left the people at a crossroads. . Why should the people buy expensive electricity and give billions of profit to a few capitalists of the power plants? The attacks of privatization are increasing unemployment and the state has deviated from health, education, employment, food, transport and public services and has become a mafia of a few families and external powers and institutions, multinational companies, only looting continues. On the one hand, heaven is becoming for the richer and hell for the poorer. The ruling class is only increasing its wealth through epidemics like corruption, conscience-sucking, usurpation, exploitation, looting, illegal profiteering, extremism, and terrorism. . Young people will not become psychotic patients affected by unemployment and go towards drunkenness and thefts and robberies! By taking away the basic needs like education and health, will private education and treatment be within the reach of the poor people? Free education for every citizen Guaranteed employment for every man and woman Free treatment for every citizen Justice is quick and cheap to every citizen Security of residence for every citizen Build a resistance movement together against neoliberal policies like inflation, unemployment, privatization. For which millions of workers should gather in Islamabad on one day in May and warn the ruling class. Be a part of the Labor National Movement’s Anti-Neoliberalism Campaign.
