From Al-Jazeera…

South Korean lorry drivers are refusing to work for the second straight day, disrupting operations at ports and causing export losses.
The strike by about 13,000 drivers, which began on Friday, poses a challenge to Lee Myung-bak, South Korea’s president, whose decision to resume American beef imports has triggered separate huge protests.
The lorry drivers want the government to increase fuel subsidies, help raise transportation charges and introduce a minimum wage, according to the Korean Cargo Workers’ Union, which is spearheading the shutdown.
Some non-unionised truckers also took part in the walkout, the union and the government said.
