TMG Digital reports that millions of people in Gauteng could be left stranded on Monday (30 May) if the taxi industry embarks on a strike in the province.
While Santaco (SA National Taxi Council) in Gauteng could not confirm the strike‚ the department of community safety released a statement expressing its concern over the looming strike. According to the department‚ the strike will be in response of Operation ke Molao (‘Operation it’s the law’) that was recently implemented in the province‚ resulting in hundreds of minibus taxis being impounded. Santaco’s secretary-general in the province‚ Ralph Jones‚ commented: “I am not sure of any strike on Monday… there was a possibility of going on strike but we thought‚ no‚ let us talk and see where we can find each other.”
