2011, TMPCWA successfully launch the eleventh (11th) year

organising campaign of TMPCWA will benefit the more than a
decade of struggle specially of the illegally dismissed Toyota
workers.
After the unification meeting of the
members and families, TMPCWA distributed some gifts of
Christmast package for each family members. The package is not
expensive grocery items but the union make it sure that the
families can have their food to prepare in the eve of
Christmas. The illegally dismissed members and their families
are very happy to receive it. Most of the family said that this
is one of the most happy year-end gathering they experienced.
Other dismissed members could not able to attend because many of
them could not able to allow to use their vacation leave because
of the fixed season, but they made a confirmation on whatever
decision and resolution to be made in this activity, they are
united with it.

Vergarra and family donated two pig to make sure the food will
be enough for two days, their families also prepared the cooking
with the help of other dismissed members living close to their
town. Vergarra family also provides containers of mineral water
