The interim coalition government at least acted as one in one area. That was related to efforts to belay the labour unrest in Angola.

That temporarily stopped the strikes of the port-workers of Luanda and Lobito. However, except for a few exceptions, strikes in ports and on the railways continued and added to the disruption.
