WORKERS PROTEST OUTSIDE GOVERNMENT



National.

The post-bankruptcy workers who kicked off massive protests early Tuesday continued demonstrating outside the government's building.

The decision for "moving" of the protests was made after the Parliament Speaker Ljubisha Georgievski explained to the workers' representative Stojan Stojanov that the issue of the ex-workers of the bankrupted companies could not be put at the parliament's agenda due to the overburdened schedule.

The workers then decided to resume protests in front of the government's building, hoping to meet with the Deputy Prime Minister Zoran Stavreski.

The ex-workers demand adoption of legislation regulating their status, including benefits until retirement.

Several hundreds of ex-workers attended today's protests outside the parliament, blocking the traffic flow in downtown Skopje.

The workers set up a makeshift tent site near the parliament building and they live there since March 5. They have been living in tents in the past nine months and many of them got sick. St. Petka church and a small number of humane citizens bring food to protesting workers.


MD: Many of the workers have set up tents near the parliament building and they have been living there since March 5, nine months. Humane organizations bring help to the protesting workers. Many them also got sick.
