Striking dockworkers at Hongkong International Terminals Ltd., the port operator backed by billionaire Li Ka-shing, will hold talks with their employers today amid signs that the stoppage may be losing support.
Union negotiators will join the talks, Wong Yu-loy, a representative of the Union of Hong Kong Dockers, said by phone yesterday. Hongkong International Terminals executives will also attend the meetings, according to a transcript of remarks by Matthew Cheung, Hong Kong secretary for labor and welfare, published on the government’s website yesterday. The government arranged the meetings, he said.
