Source for World Federation of Trade Unions affiliates

Hey, this is probably a long shot, but I wanted to give it a try. You created the template for the World Federation of Trade Unions, which said the Bangladesh Trade Union Kendra was affiliated to them. I'm currently rewriting their article and can't for the life of me find a source for their affiliation to the WFTU / a list of WFTU affiliates. Do you happen to have one of those sources? If not, that's totally fine, thanks anyway! Zarasophos (talk) 14:43, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello, Zarasophos! nice to hear of someone interested in the labour movement in Bangladesh! I used those unions listed as members of the Presidential Council for the WFTU affiliates. However, just to clarify in this particular case the BTUC/BTUK is affiliated to the WFTU, while the GWTUC would not be directly affiliated to the WFTU, but most likely is a member of the WFTU TUI which covers garment workers (The General Secretary of Garment Workers Trade Union Center of Bangladesh, Joly Talukder met with the WFTU General Secretary. Some specific sources which show the BTUC/BTUK as affiliated to the WFTU: The Demonstrations of the working class of Bangladesh continues! (the banner in the picture has Bangladesh Trade Union Centre written across the bottom and the article specifically refers to WFTU affiliates); The World Federation of Trade unions expresses its solidarity to its members and the working class of Bangladesh; WFTU Bangladesh chapter condemns US blockade against Cuba (note signatories to the statement - BTUC/BTUK General Secretary and President are there). If you're not part of the Organized Labour project, please consider joining. Hope that helps. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 00:16, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
Perfect, thank you. I'll have a look whether I can find some more good sources for the BTUC/BTUK article, to make it clearer that they are two separate organisations. And yeah, I think unions are a very grateful topic for Wikipedia articles because, well, there's so much to do... Zarasophos (talk) 06:46, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
