Firm officials seek sangat's support for bailout
WSN Network

FREMONT: In an initiative aimed at garnering support to save the well known Japanese company Lumi which is currently facing a crisis due to the ongoing recession and threats of being moved out, closing down or shedding jobs, Sikh community member Bibi Balbir Kaur Sull, a senior advisor of the firm, and the company's employee union president Ron Lopez visited the Fremont gurdwara to seek sangat's signatures on a petition.

The petition is meant to argue for either a bail out or other measures to save the firm lest a large number of employees lose their jobs or the firm is moved out of Fremont city, thus causing a huge loss.

More than 1500 people have signed the petition to be sent to President Barack Obama. Bibi Sull and Mr Lopez addressed the sangat and briefed about the possible losses in case the firm is forced to shut down.
