Looking for data on labor conditions in the Philippines? Check out this report from PCIJ.
MORE THAN a century ago, Filipino workers marched down what is now known as Claro M. Recto Street in Manila to assert and claim their rights.
The Congreso Obrero de Filipinas (COF), also known as the Congress of the Philippine Labor, led the protest action. More than 10 years later, a new union called the Katipunan ng Anak Pawis (KAP) was born from its ranks. The government soon outlawed both congresses.
