MANILA -- Outside a sardine cannery in Manila's port district, a shanty serves as a makeshift headquarters for disgruntled employees who launched a strike in July.
"They have been treating us unfairly all these years!" Sonia Gabato, a 54-year-old worker at the cannery, said on Oct. 6. She and a colleague had just completed a handwritten testimony detailing allegations against their employer, which will be submitted to the Department of Labor and Employment.
