Hello comrades, miners of Stillwater Sibanye. I have learned of the lockout order against striking miners from AMCU and NUM and would like to express my solidarity with you. These reprisals against you by the management of Stillwater Sibanye are not justified. We will protest against it. You are justifiably campaigning for higher wages and are being locked out for it.

Dear miners and relatives of Larco, you have our fullest solidarity in your struggle for every job and loss of affordable housing. I myself worked as an electrician underground in the German coal industry for 35 years. It is impressive how great the solidarity with you and your families is among the Greek population; we have had similar experiences in Germany and it shows that it is not true how politicians and companies want to make us believe that we are alone.

Last week, the majority of union members in the two major unions, NUM and AMCU, voted to go on strike. On Tuesday this week, the strike began for 1000 rand more per month (about €60) at South Africa's largest gold mining company, Stillwater Sibanye. The company offered 800 rand more per month. The company's mines are located in the Johannesburg area.

We would like to express our fullest solidarity with your strike. I had already written to you 3 weeks ago and welcomed your decision to strike. The unionization of several unions is an important step against the division of the miners, for the unity of the labor movement in the struggle against the mining monopolies and their servile governments.
