2:20 am
but his resignation with my resignation does not come are still surprised in the past month. you have come under a lot of criticism from the powerful vice president of the country who also the former president, christina for. and then there's the cushion or christina for years, it was very critical of any go see ations with the mass of with months attempts to cut down the deficits of this month, attempts to cut down subsidies on energy among other things. so that's why it doesn't come with a surprise was mighty seen, are perceived as a moderate and many within the rolling coalition. within the center, less coalition. we're hoping for the minister of the economy to take more radical steps to tackle inflation. another problem that argentina economy facing to be among them, you know, these countries facing very high you creation is currently around 5 percent every month, but some say that he could reach 80 percent this year. we're also seeing shortages of this. so for example,
2:21 am
the central bank is struggling to access us dollars. this is a huge problem for doing that because it has to pay whoring debt, but all points vital for imports in this country. so it was my resignation, basically lays bare this enormous complex that exists within the ruling coalition within the government within christina, fernandez the kirshner, and that is of ma'am this last month, the minister of production for example, have to resign because you criticize some of the stuff or under the curse there's the fish. and so secondly, heath resignation only adds up to the current tension to the uncertainty that exists in argentina today. and turns out all of this and the tensions on the streets. well that correct. we have the protest almost every day on the streets of when a site is on the streets of our dinner tonight, in general, for us 3rd by social movement, who are demanding that the government takes further measures to tacket inflation.
2:22 am
they're seeing the price of, for example, increase from one week to the other. the government has tried to implement, for example, food controls of price control before prices. but that has not succeeded. we have also seen truck drivers, protesters on the street. so definitely whoever is named the next minister economy won't have an easy job ahead of him. there's lots of challenges ahead. and we'll certainly we're going to have to see who comes up there who succeed might have been mine and the measures that that person is going to take. okay. teresa bo live in the point of service. thank you for that. now almost 50000 people have joined protests in south korea capital to demand better working conditions and a higher minimum wage demonstration was organized by south korea. the biggest trade union, robert bride has more from salt. it's the largest demonstration states by this trade union organisation since before the pandemic helping to swell the numbers has been a change in south korea government to
2:23 am
a conservative administration seen as pro business and not as friendly to workers. there is the possibility of increasing the number of hours in the working week, but what trade unionists are faring the most is spiraling inflation. they say that wages can't keep pace with. i don't own our biggest problem is inflation. i know it's a global issue and it's caused by war, but why should the consequences of it be passed all the way down to us working on the home? i don't think extending the working hours doesn't make sense. even the current 42 hours that i work, there isn't enough time for my kids and my family lives. rising fuel costs lead to a national strike by truck drivers last month that caused supply chain disruption affecting production in south korean factories. and rising prices are causing changes in people's everyday habits with more workers making do with convenient
2:24 am
store meals for lunch. let me the price is at my usual restaurant went up. so now i come here instead about 2 or 3 times a week. and there is more pain on the way for consumers and home buyers. it really that way, she genuine other real purchasing power is shrinking in the face of fierce inflation . secondly, interest rates are on the rise simultaneously, which is a burden for people being off loans. so the march ended at the offices of south korea's president, in the hopes this new would ministration will here work as grievances the workers had been pushing for an increase in the minimum wage of nearly 20 percent. but after a lot of negotiations about to settle for just 5 percent, which they are far from happy with. and the government has been urging companies to limit wage rises across the board to curb inflation in south korea right now. there's plenty to fuel workers, anger. robert bride al jazeera, so le beers arrival. leaders are under growing pressure day after major protests.
