Become part of the campaign and
sponsor it today Labour Party Pakistan in close association with
Afghan Labour Revolutionary Organization has decided to launch
Afghan Workers Solidarity Campaign. The idea to start this
campaign was discussed during the visit of Alan Macomb of Scottish
Socialist Party. The SSP has already decided to actively support
this campaign.
LPP and ALRO are appealing to all the international Left and trade
union movement to support this campaign.
The main aim of this campaign is to help the Afghan workers in
their struggle to survive. It will bring material help for the
Afghan workers which will be distributed inside Afghanistan and
also in refugees camp in Pakistan. It will help to strengthen the
progressive organizations of the Afghan workers. It will collect
and bring every day life necessities to the
Afghan workers on emergency basis.
The suppression by the religious fundamentalists of all the
democratic and human rights in Afghanistan over the years has left
the organization of the Left forces in absolute weak position.
Many had lost lives for the cause of Socialism in Afghanistan.
Rest of them are spending their lives underground even in exile.
Their families have been tortured and sentenced to death by the
religious fundamentalist. But the so-called victory of the
Imperialist forces leaves no better situation for the Afghan Left
forces. They still have to make a very difficult life to spread
the ideas of Socialism.
To help the Afghan left forces in their struggle to survive and
promote their organizations needs an active international support.
LPP has been active in promoting the Afghan Left for some years.
It has now a plan to produce a monthly paper in Pushto language to
help the afghan left in promotion of their ideas and strategy.
LPP has already started collecting cloths, medicine, blankets,
shoes and other every day food items to be distributed among
Afghan refugees camp through the ALRO and other afghan Left
groups.
The LPP plan to send its first truck load of these items till 24th
of November.
