In Korea. because many companies are having labor disputes, they are not able to work properly.
Is this sentence correct? If I say - "In Korea many companies have labour disputes, they are not able to work properly", what differences in meaning of sentences will arise?
Why in given example "are having" has been used?
@Nousher Ahmed,
"...are having..." means it's happening now.
Quote:many companies have labour disputes
means it happens from time to time. Could be now, may be recent, and is expected to occur again.
