"Another Labor Leader Murdered in the Philippines On Monday March 10, Gerry Cristobal was killed in an alleged "traffic altercation" by the Philippine police. Before this incidence, there had been 2 previous attempts on Gerry's life. Gerry was a leader with the Solidarity of Cavite Workers (SCW), an alliance of labor organizations and unions.
Gerry's murder is the latest in a string of murders and violence that labor rights advocates in Cavite have endured for the past few years."
Solidarity of Cavite Workers (SCW)
The SCW is an alliance of labor organisations and unions based in Rosario, Cavite. The SCW was then a programme of the Workers' Assistance Center Inc. (WAC) before it became an independent organisation.
