Cement truck drivers go on strike

BOGOR: About 6,000 cement truck drivers and their assistants
went on strike on Monday and parked 3,000 vehicles in the parking
lot of PT Indocement Tunggal Prakarsa to protest the increase in
the number of trucks.

Anwar, one of the drivers of PT Mitra Rajasa, complained that
it would be more difficult now to get an order to transport
cement from PT Indocement.

A staff member at PT Indocement, who spoke on condition of
anonymity, said his company had nothing to do with the truck
drivers.

"They work for other companies that have an agreement with us
to distribute the cement, so the strike has nothing to do with
us," he said. -- JP
