The Dekada Movement will be joining the "May Day" rally on May 1 and is calling on all workers in the Commonwealth-local and foreign alike-to unite and join in this celebration and call to action.
The rally will start at Fishing Base across the Kristo Rai Church in Garapan at 6pm on Friday and proceed to the American Memorial Park's amphitheater.
"The business community and general public should also join this effort because they have common interests and the economic future of the CNMI depends on capitalizing on those common interests," according to Dekada president Boni Sagana in a statement issued yesterday.
