 The federal government has declared illegal the planned protest by the non-jewel labor Congress in solidarity with its tracking members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities ASU. The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Muhammad, told State House Correspondent after the Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by President Muhammad Bahadi on Wednesday. Most of the Muhammad stressed that the NLC was in no dispute with the federal government and as such, considered its planned street protest illegal. The Information Minister said that the Congress' planned action was based on self-interest and a planned action was capable of stalking Aniki. NLC is supposed to be completely, completely insulated from politics. Now, if we declare this with us, yes, we can go on strike. But this particular NLC asking and mobilizing people to come out on strike with the federal government is clearly unknowful. The federal government is as worried as NLC and everybody. But the law is the law. What we are saying is that rather than what I expect NLC to do as umbrella body is to find solution to join federal government in FISA. And this is what they are part of the corporate agreement that has been negotiating, you know, with the federal government on this as so easy. So why are they now going out to take sides? I would be surprised if you go ahead with NLC to do a demonstration knowing fully well that that is not permissible in international leopoldance. It's all about interest. And so when interest supersedes the correct reasoning, you get this kind of situation. To the voluntarism situation, the Minister of Education volunteered and said, give me two weeks. My proposal to the meeting was one week for him to handle, and he said, I need more than one week. In two weeks, sir, everything I hope will be resolved.
