In addition to the May Day protest actions organized in Pakistan, Korea, and the Philippines against PepsiCo, workers in Indonesia called on PepsiCo to stop crushing a courageous group of workers in West Bengal India, who formed a trade union. Following the founding of their union, workers were harassed, assaulted by company goons and then 162 workers out of 170 employed in three warehouses were brutally fired.
