The main transport union leaders in Santiago have turned down an invitation for a meeting from the head of the police, Major General Manuel Castro Castillo and to his call for them not to strike today.
CNTT and the FETTRANRENO union presidents Juan Marte and Gervasio de la Rosa said they had decided not to go to the meeting as they are not going to back off from their demands, namely better working conditions for their members.
They confirmed that today, Wednesday 29 January they are asking all drivers on the urban and inter-urban public transport routes to strike from 6am until 6am tomorrow, Thursday 30 January.
