Paraguayan drivers win pay rise

AsunciĆ³n, Paraguay
Bus drivers in the capital won a 7% pay rise from the government this week, after they threatened to strike for four consecutive days. Initially the unions had demanded 10%, and the government had offered 5%. But the threat of action, coordinated across several unions, was enough to force the concession.
