We have received this report fromGoran
Markovic, President of the Main Board of the Workers' Communist Party of Bosnia
and Herzegovina and are happy to publish it. It highlights the reawakening of
the workers in Bosnia and Herzegovina after the terrible war that tore this
country apart. The interesting thing is that workers on both sides of the divide
are struggling for the same things.
The sharp radicalisation within Serbian society continues,
and was put in the spotlight once again last week by the third failed
presidential election in a row. The working people of Serbia simply stayed at
home, ignoring the government calls to go out and elect a president. The
election results clearly showed just how deep the crisis in the country is, and
how unpopular and weak the pro-western ruling caste is in reality. From Pobunjeni Um

On April 1, 2004 around 200 workers of the Slovenian company Comet, the main
producer of wet stones in Slovenia, went on strike. They have now been striking
for one week and it seems that the strike will not come to an end if the workers
do not get what they demand. In the recent period there has been an ascent in
the class struggle in the
Slovenian industrial sector. Following the workers' strike in Unior company,
which produces all kinds of tools from screwdrivers, spanners, tongs etc., this
has been the fourth strike in the industrial sector this year.
