Swaziland enters second day of strikesTrade unions in Africa's last true monarchy are entering a second-day of strikes aimed at democratic reforms. Swaziland has begun drafting a constitution that the Federation of Trade Unions says will give the monarchy more power. King Mswati the Third has been criticisized of living a rich lifestyle while most of the countries population lives in poverty. More than a third of Swazis are HIV positive. The union is seeking a constitution that will include separation of power between branches of government. As well as respect women and human rights. Africa | Posted 01/27/2005 - 9:19am | 1167 reads
