I'm usually more supportive of labor protests but it's hard to see the strike aimed at blocking this legislation as anything but selfish.
Are there details about them demanding labor concessions in exchange for this bill or is it simply "no more new doctors"?
Ah yes, people being forced to work 100 hour weeks are selfish. That's totally the problem here. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/overworked-unheard-south-korean-doctors-mass-walkout-say-2024-02-26/
