Challenges Establish adequate mechanisms of distribution and re-distribution of national wealth for faire working conditions and employment   Organising and collective bargaining   SSNs   Taxation

ITUC-ASIA PACIFIC In pursuit of Ideal Globalisation In this Century, we want to see a situation where “the current process of globalization is generating balanced outcomes, both between and within countries. Wealth is being created, and many countries and people are sharing in its benefits. They have a voice in shaping the process. Seen through the eyes of the vast majority of women and men, globalization has met their own and legitimate aspirations for decent jobs and a better future for our children.”
