The construction workers affiliated to the Suntracs begin to arrive at the Porras Park for the General Assembly in the debate about the continuity or not of the strike that today has 27 days.

The assembly is scheduled to start at 10:00 in the morning and according to the leaders of the Suntracs the slogan is “strike until an agreement is reached” that meets the needs of the workers.
