On May 12th, informal traders took to the streets to protest the recent FIFA by-laws that prevent them from selling during Soccer 2010. They presented a memorandum to FIFA officials demanding that their basic human rights be met and that a formal response be submitted within seven days. FIFA stated that they would consider their demands and reply within the stipulated time frame.
