Officials in Asunción's municipal government in Paraguay are involved in a dispute that has created tension inside the local administration. Some municipal functionaries have threatened to go on strike. Their threat suggests that attempts to settle the disagreement have not succeeded. Details of what the employees are demanding have not been released. The timing of a possible walkout has not been announced. It is also unclear whether all municipal workers would join the protest. A stoppage could interrupt municipal services, although the scale of any disruption remains unknown.
