Unions are restricted to certain industries, and they are basically all controlled by the government, so that puts an upper limit on the amount of "trouble" in industrial relations. Much of the country is in a "developing" state, and there is competition for jobs in the cities. The pre-1980s weren't that long ago in the collective consciousness, and while policies and initiatives may have changed, the same people are in charge.
