Taipei, April 24 (CNA) Labor union leaders said Monday they will stage a big rally on Labor Day not to celebrate their day but to protest against what they perceive as “exploitation” by their “spoiled bosses.”

At a press conference, union leaders said they have formed the “2017 May 1 Action Alliance” to warn President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) not to take advantage of worker support for her ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and then ignore their appeals.

The central appeals of their May Day rally will be “opposing exploitation” and “securing guarantees for worker rights.”    [FULL  STORY]
