Mexican university workers end 28 day strike at UNAM
In Mexico City the National University workers voted to suspend the 28 day strike that halted classes for about 300 000 students. The administration warned of government arbitration if workers did not return to duty with no wage increase. Workers will receive half their wages lost during the stoppage and had refused an $11 monthly raise. The walkout, sparked by a 40 percent demand, was seen as challenging President de la Madrid era austerity policies.
