Yesterday, South Korean truck drivers have started an unlimited strike action, according to the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF). The Federation said the impact of this action is already being felt at ports, petrochemical complexes and other logistics hubs of the country, where freight transport has slowed or stopped.
The ITF-affiliated Korean Public Service and Transport Workers’ Union Cargo Truckers’ Solidarity Division (KPTU-TruckSol) estimates that 15,000 members participated in strike rallies held in 16 locations across South Korea and several thousand more drivers, both members and non-members, joined the strike in solidarity.
