Michael's only too correct.
My experience with retail organizing and the International of the UFCW (and, granted, we're not talking about a hotbed of enlightenment there) was that the union had no idea at all where, for instance, Singapore was, let alone who in Singapore might be helpful to get to know for future organizing of the multinational I worked for.
International collaboration in union oganizing would be THE growth field if all were right with the world. For the near future, groups like the Int'l Socialist Organization might be helpful.
