a labor union organization consultant of the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines which I wrote a book on the Labor Union and Economic Development in the Philippines(1976) which some colleges are using as part of the reading text in Labor Economics. I was also a labor union consultant of a German Foundation, Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, Clearing House for Special Development in Asia with head office in Makati, Philippines.

I was never anti union, never will be and wont be in the remaining of my life - although I can say that I am "swaying to the anti side" of excessive and abusive union anywhere in the world who takes travels, expenses, parties and "gold" junkets at the expense of the general membership.

Those excerpts that I posted were just a grim reminder of what a labor union can do who has a narrow outlook and who focus only in the short run instead of the broader outlook towards the benefits of the greater member of the American society.

Lastly, they were posted as "objectively" as I lifted those excerpts.

Thank you very much.
