The so-called “Great Concentration” began around 9:00 a.m. in the vicinity of the Juan Santamaría International Airport, in Alajuela.
These demonstrations are in order to protest against the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the possibility of imposing new taxes by the government. In turn, the representatives of the education trade unions ask to set taxes for “big evaders.”According to the organizers of the activity.
