[Ming Pao News]”Strike! Stay to the end!” During the spring and summer of 2013, a 40-day labor strike broke out at the Kwai Chung Container Terminal. Hundreds of dock workers assembled to go on strike. Tents left outside the gate of Pier 6 stretched for 100 meters, and finally won a salary increase. Nearly ten percent. In the 2010s, Chen Qinhe (Ah Chen), then president of the Hong Kong Dock Industry Workers Union, recalled that when the workers took the initiative to go on strike, he was still excited. Said, “It wasn’t the strike that year, how did we get 2,000 mosquitoes a day.” However, the connection between workers and the union has weakened over time and the social atmosphere. The current president, Li Majian (Li Ma), stated that it is difficult to recruit members.
