The aggrieved workers joined other state workers to begin an indefinite strike action, over claims that the state government has refused to pay them their 21-month salary deductions. They embarked on the strike today after going through a 7-days warning strike.
The workers are also demanding a review of the state pension laws and process as well as access to loans such as car and housing loans.
