Dear fellow workers,

The International Workers' Association wishes to express to you our solidarity and best wishes for a prompt and safe rescue.

Your fate is a particularly clear example of the way in which modern and ancient capitalism operates, with bare disdain to the lives and safety of the workforce who assure production and wealth.

The IWA will continue to fight against risky and inhuman work conditions and against the capitalist system that makes these conditions possible!

All the best for your return home!

Oslo, October 12th 2010

In solidarity and with fraternal greetings
from the IWA- Secretariat
