Who Killed Chea Vichea?
Thursday, October 7, 2010(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
Join area union members for a special
preview screening - sponsored by the AFL-CIO, the Asian Pacific
American Labor Alliance and the Solidarity Center – of Who Killed Chea Vichea?
at 5:30P today at the AFL-CIO, featuring a discussion with Producer Rich
Garella. Chea Vichea, President of the Free Trade Union of Workers of the
Kingdom of Cambodia, represented tens of thousands of garment workers in a
booming garment export industry in Cambodia. Under his leadership the union won
victory after victory against enormous odds. Who Killed Chea Vichea? is a new
film about his assassination and its shocking aftermath: the conviction of two
men who seem to have no connection to the crime. Suggested donations are $50 per
person – proceeds will go to support labor rights issues in Cambodia (please
make checks payable to Asia Catalyst with “Chea Vichea” in the memo line).
