Truck drivers unite in protest across South Korea slowing major ports and container depots. This strike comes at a time when the global supply chain struggles to recover from Russia\u2019s invasion and lockdowns in Chinese cities. Although not all the nations drivers are choosing to participate, the rallies threaten to slow the pace of South Korean exports of consumer goods if they continue for weeks, local media said.<\/p>\n
Busan is the seventh-largest port in the world, handling 23 million container boxes last year, according to Korea\u2019s Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. \u201cThe impact of the strike is already being felt at ports, petrochemical complexes, and other logistics hubs,\u201d said the ITF, who is associated with the protest participants.<\/p>\n
