....SEGYEHWA (“Globalization”) and Korea: Worsening Crisis in Society, Worsening Conditions for Migrant Workers
“We realized that the common problems confronting the migrant workers are: exploitative
economic system operating in the sending and receiving countries, contract violation, harassment
and discrimination. Our response, thus far, is the on-going pastoral care for migrants affirmed by
the Generalate mandate. Both of these have challenged and emboldened us to continue committing
ourselves to work hand in hand with migrant workers for the realization of their struggle and
that of their home countries for food and freedom, jobs and justice, land and liberation.”
From the Unity Statement of the SVD-Justice & Peace and Integrity of Creation (JPIC) conference on
migrant workers, September 15 - 19 2000, Hong Kong, SARArticle here!
