Latest news: Suez will leave, but government plans re-privatization - Workers call 48 hour strike

The sanitary workers unions in Santa Fe, Argentina called a 48-hour work stoppage on July 25th to protest the sale, by Suez, of its shares to an Argentine private company, Emgasud.   They fear the situation will go from bad (with Suez) to worse (with the sale to Emgasud). Emgasud, a natural gas company, has no experience in running a water utility. Governor Jorge Obeid, feeling the pressure, now claims that there are other private companies beside Emgasud interested in buying-out Suez.  Meanwhile, consumer groups, environmentalists, trade unions and others continue their demands to return the water services to public hands.
