Unrest over soaring education costs is spreading from Chile...to neighboring Colombia.
Thousands of students and teachers marched peacefully thru the streets of Bogota and other cities against a proposal to privatize education.
“If the president does not stick by his word and stop this bill going through then we are going to see a situation much worse than Chile,” said a student. “The students will not sit back and watch as our education is destroyed.”
