More than 1300 public service workers to strike over pay

Over 1,300 public service workers, including DIA staff, are planning a two-hour strike to protest the department's insufficient pay raise that doesn't match the rising cost of living. This move highlights the growing tension between public service employees and the government over fair compensation. The strike underscores broader concerns about the affordability of living costs and the pressure on public sector wages, signaling potential larger issues if the government doesn't address these pay disparities.
