as posted by the channel

Around 40,000 unionized Samsung workers in Pyeongtaek, South Korea rallied to demand higher wages and bonuses on Thursday. The union is pushing for the company’s profits to be better distributed among its workers and is already calling for a strike May 21.

Samsung recently reported profits exceeding $38.5 billion, driven by the global AI boom’s appetite for memory chips and semiconductors.
