The Importance of Celebrating Labour Day

Labour Day is observed every year on the 1st of May. It’s a holiday in most countries around the world and perhaps one of the most important ones. However, most of us don’t think about its significance and even take it for granted. Behind the holiday lies a legacy of protest, solidarity, and the ongoing fight for workers’ rights, even in here in Malaysia. In this episode, we discuss the significance of Labour Day as well as the upcoming Labour Day rally happening in KL this Friday. The march will begin at Masjid Negara at 3pm and end at Dataran Merdeka. We speak to S. Arutchelvan, Deputy Chairperson, Parti Sosialis Malaysia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
