Large strike movements before the communal elections

The strike movement develops

According to Madagascar Tribune: “From sources generally quite informed, the movement of strike will soon touch the entire transport sector. Will the provisioning of our air fleet by “Total Aviation” be consequently disturbed? With the will of the employees of Air Mad to maintain their decision to strike also, it is one of the key sectors of the nation which gets mobilized against, not the Admiral but against their new employers.

This strike movement may slow down the rapid development of the nation which President Ravalomanana is pleading for. In any case, such an initiative is hardly appropriate for the State which is setting up the bases of its program by organizing the communal elections.”

AVI, RPSD and the TIM parties, together but separately !

According to Midi-Madagasikara: “the successive meetings held between the three parties of the “Firaisankinam-pirenena” (Tiako I Madagasikara, TIM, Asa Vita No Ifampitsarana. AVI, and the Gathering For Social Democrat, RPSD) proceeded, lately, in an different mode from those organized last year during the preparation of the legislative elections. Indeed, for the communal elections of November, according to information’s received from some quite informed sources, the bargainings between TIM and AVI for the distribution of the districts were most difficult.”
