PSM secretary-general S. Arutchelvan.

PETALING JAYA: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's call for unions to change their attitude and to not function as a facilitator of pickets is "old fashioned", and one which has been "recycled" from the past, claims Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM).

Its central committee member S. Arutchelvan said it is the role of the government to become the bridge between unions and employers, adding that a union's role was to defend the fate of workers.
