Police buses block a road leading to the Presidential Blue House as South Korean workers demonstrate during a general strike in central Seoul.  About 30,000 South Korean workers attend the rally against government decision to set up a unit to run a high-speed bullet train which they say will lead to privatisation and layoffs.
