1.Two labor unions of public transportation workers in La Paz, the Federation of Drivers Chuquiago Marka and Transporte Libre, have announced a large-scale strike starting early tomorrow, Wednesday, October 23, for 24 hours. The strike is in protest of the government’s failure to resolve fuel shortages and a demand for fare increases within the city.
2.The strike is expected to cause a halt in public transportation services, including taxis, as well as road blockades in La Paz. This will likely impact logistics, economic activities, and the daily lives of residents.
