The National Chamber of Industry estimates that, in the 12 days of the blockade of social organizations alone, the industry has lost some $120 million so far and foresees the loss of thousands of jobs. The business sector is demanding government measures to promote the Bolivian Purchase Agreement, establishing that 20% of wages and salaries allocate to the purchase products with a Bolivian-made seal. It would represent about $ 200 million that would boost the demand for national products and contribute to the reactivation of the domestic industry.
