Thousands of Romanian workers from all over the country protested
low wages in the capital on Wednesday, rallying outside government
headquarters to demand leaders do something to increase their pay,
according to the foreign media.
Trade unions said up to 20,000 workers were expected to take part in
the three-hour rally, and traffic was diverted in Bucharest.
Hundreds of thousands of teachers, medical staff and other public
workers staged a one-day strike Monday.
