arkadaşlar merhaba,
aşağıdaki yazıyı hazırladım, yabancı arkadaşlarınızla paylaşabilmeniz için, ancak sonradan hurriyet'in ingilizce sayfasındaki bir yazıyı farkettim. daha güncel ve belki insanlar yorumlarını da bırakabilirler altına diye düşündüm. ikisini de paylaşıyorum.
benim yazdığımda da herhangi bir yanlış, yazım hatası bulursanız bana da bildirin ki burada da değiştireyim.
teşekkürler

Workers at Turkish Airlines marched on Tuesday, 29th of May to protest the legislation that would ban the right to strike and lockout in Turkeys aviation sector.
Turkish Airlines, Europe's fourth largest carrier, said the decision on Tuesday by many of its workers to protest the pending legislation by calling in sick had forced it to cancel 223 flights, affecting more than 100,000 passengers and cost the company nearly $2 million (€1.61 million). A simultaneous attack on the airline's website also blocked sales on it.
On that very day, Turkish Airlines sacked 305 workers accused of taking part in that protest, the company said. The sacking even continues now and the number is growing day by day. The company also mentioned that it will charge all the financial damage (occurred by cancelled flights) to those workers who’ve been sacked.
Mustafa Yagci, secretary general of the civil aviation workers union Hava-is, had said on Thursday that he’d expected President Abdullah Gul to veto the legislation because it violates the rights of workers to strike. But that didn’t happen; the legislation passed in one day, without any hesitations and objections. Now that also the president has approved it; it’s become law.
But Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Wednesday that the legislation is designed to prevent interruptions in air travel. His government said it wants to make Turkish Airlines, which is expanding its network around the world, immune to strikes.
According to company statement, the cases have risen and workers are being sued right now by the company for penalty. Besides losing their jobs without any dismissal compensation, they are facing awful consequences just because they seeked for justice, which both the government and the company have taken away from them…
