The 5-star Naga World Hotel Casino in Phnom Penh (Cambodia) has 1,685 rooms and suites, but no room for workers' rights.

For nearly two decades, the local union has struggled for rights and recognition against a hostile management. In May, 2019 the union launched a campaign to bargain for wages for the first time and now faces a management backlash.

Union president Chhim Sithar was suspended on September 20. She was accused of breaching company rules after she assisted another union member who was being harassed by security over union materials in her bag.

On 15-16 October mass meetings of the union's more than 4,400 members unanimously confirmed their commitment to fighting Sithar's suspension and continuing their struggle for wage bargaining rights.
