Eschewing a mission education, which would have been the normal step to a position of relative influence for one of his background, he left school early to work in Hall's Garage as a driver and mechanic. Lorries (or "trucks" in American parlance) were then just beginning to supplant human porters as the main means of moving freight in Nyasaland. During the Second World War he drove lorries carrying goods (some of them illicit) between Blantyre and Salisbury, the capital of Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). After the war, together with another Yao lorry driver, Lali Lubani, he founded the Nyasaland African Drivers Association. He recruited drivers and mechanics from Conforzi's Tea and Tobacco company in Cholo (or Thyolo) where they had recently participated in a strike, as well as from Tobacco Auctions, local garages and from the recently formed national bus service, Nyasaland Transport Company. There was an entry fee of five shillings and annual dues of 12 shillings, a rate high enough to discourage unskilled applicants. Makata and Lubani affiliated this organization with the politically active Nyasaland African Congress (fore-runner of the Malawi Congress Party which became the only legal political party after Malawi became a republic in 1966). At the NAC's fourth annual meeting in September 1947, Lubani called on the government to introduce a minimum wage for lorry drivers. In 1948, they changed the name to the Nyasaland African Workers Association and in 1949 registered it as the country's first official trade union. By 1957, the Association had a membership of 255. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lawrence Makata」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
