Shutdown will cost the State 400 Million!

Unions have also joined the shutdown.

Chilean authorities have also vowed to awaken the security measures leftover from the Pinochet era in order to quell public disorder.

Yes it is happening today and tommorow, I arrived about an hour ago.
The streets are empty. The right wing goverment goes on about that "we all loose". LOL

My country is waking up.

By the way the chilean goverment has used Pinochet type repression, just search "protesta chile 4 de agosto".

ps: The initial shutdown was called by the CUT, the workers union. But the students support it.
