Trade unions organised a general strike to protest against the mounting pressure on wages and working conditions in the country. Pressed by foreign business interests, the government has approved changes that worsened minimum wage entitlements, employment provisions, pensions and disability insurance without any form of consultation. After various requests for social dialogue were ignored, unions resorted to organising a general strike.
