Workers of Petro China Daqing Tamsag delay strike

A total of 250 workers of the 100 percent China owned Petro China Daqing Tamsag LLC, a subsidiary of the Daqing Oilfield Company Ltd, announced that they would hold a strike in January demanding a pay increase by up to 50 percent.

But the Trade Union of Petro China Daqing Tamsag LLC announced that the strike will be postponed.

N.Erdenebat, the Head of Trade Union of Petro China Daqing Tamsag LLC explained to reporters that the Chinese Directors of the company have not arrived back in Mongolia since leaving to celebrating the New Year in their home country. The Directors of the company also requested the workers postpone the strike until after they negotiate on the pay increase with the Executive Directors who are based in China. Therefore workers of the company delayed the strike until February 25th.

Mongolian workers of Petro China Daqing Tamsag LLC earn 300 US dollars, service workers, guards and cleaners earn 100 US dollars per month on average. But Chinese workers earn 2500 US dollars per month on average. Therefore Mongolian workers are demanding an increase to the minimum base pay up to 300 US dollars.
