Original: News Empty box pile-up at port of Manila sparks truckers' strike
A build-up of empty shipping containers at the port of Manila has prompted truck drivers to go on strike, disrupting cargo movements at the Philippines' busiest gateway. The congestion leaves truckers waiting longer for haulage jobs, hitting their earnings. Industry observers warn the stoppage could add to delays in Philippine supply chains if the container backlog is not cleared quickly.
