In the south african province Mpumalanga this week took place protest- and blockade-actions in front of coal mines. So blocked 500 residents from Phosa and Ogies the access to Glencore coal mine Goedegevonden. There were also protest marches in front of the coal mines of Anglo American. The peoples demand that the corporation comply whith their commitments: at least 30 % of the jobs should be for the residents of the region. So far these are empty promises.
