Message of Solidarity to S-11 protest in Melbourne Dear Comrades, Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist)-Liberation wholeheartedly supports the S-11 resolve to organize mass protest against the World Economic Forum meeting to be held at Crown Casino, Melbourne. It is very heartening to note that despite the right-winger student union leadership the majority of university students have decided to join the protest movement. And similarly, despite capitulation by several opportunist trade union bosses, workers who have been made to bear the brunt of policies of liberalization and globalization dictated by the International Monetary Fund-World Bank-World Trade Organisation trio, are coming in the van of this struggle. In India too the workers and the students are two organized strata that are hit hardest by the new economic policies pursued by the ruling classes at the behest of imperialist agencies of global domination. Whereas the incidence of unemployment and job insecurity has increased manifold, the prices of essential commodities are soaring making the living of the poor harder. The toilers, especially peasants are committing suicides or selling their kidney to survive. On the other hand the policy of privatization of education has resulted in increase in tuition and other fees around tenfold in one go in several universities. Workers and students in India have taken to warpath in several states and soon the whole unrest may crystallize in an unprecedented upheaval. We sincerely hope that the protest movement in Melbourne against World Economic Forum would not only become a landmark in people’s struggle against the imperialist attempt to subjugate humanity, it will serve as a source of inspiration as well as an example of resistance worth emulating to us who are fighting a common battle against imperialism to safeguard our national sovereignty on the one hand and to change the exploitative system for the benefit of working class, agrarian laborers and other toiling people on the other. We heartily wish resounding success to the S-11 movement and express our militant solidarity with the fighting people.
