Lost in the hoopla re the Morelos movie filming… another strike by taxistas.
Apparently, the issue of unlicensed taxi drivers (see April 6 post), still hasn’t been resolved. And so, on Wednesday, the streets surrounding the Government Palace were blocked by a rainbow of taxis, whose drivers are members of Integrantes de la Unión de Taxistas del Estado de Oaxaca (UTEO).
On Thursday, the blockades were withdrawn as negotiations with the governor’s office resumed. Hopefully, the issued will finally be resolved, as taxis play an indispensable role in transporting residents, workers, and tourists from here to there.
