SHAH ALAM: Unions should act as “bridges” between workers and employers and no longer function as facilitators of pickets to push their demands, said Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The Prime Minister said unions must play this role because the expectations of workers or employers change from time to time and are becoming more complex.
