New Government

Re: New Government

Yes it was 1,950 in 1998.!

Re: New Government

So it is by no means a revolutionary step (although a bit higher from the one that would have been given by the preivous govt).

Re: New Government

^^ If Govt can bring the fuel cost down by 20% ( atleast) that would be considered as revolutionary step, ar consquently, this decrease and the min. increase in the salary together will have some impact on the life of common man.

Ohtewise this increase is nothing comapre to the price-hike.

Re: New Government

That can be done by the freezing the amount of duties and sales tax on ever increasing oil and edible oil international prices.

Re: New Government

And you know it is not so easy to implement the miminum wage law, people find many ways to evade it.

Re: New Government

While industrialists are forced to pay minimum wages but the agriculture landowners evade it (mostly our politicians)!

Re: New Government

and i even know that it is near to impossible to freeze sales tax and other duties...

Re: New Government

Does the landlords even pay any wage...???

Re: New Government

It can be!

Re: New Government

They keep haries and other workers.

Re: New Government

You know Pakistani businessmen can even evade minimum wage law in England why they cant do here!

Re: New Government

Thanks for the update. Now 8 years only a 2000 rupee increase? When i was in Pakistan 2000 rupees was nothing. Prices would increase on a weekly basis. It could barely cover your food expenses. The dawn had an interesting article that minimum wage should be near 11,000 rupees. But that would be tough to implement.

Re: New Government

Oh yes. Instead they grant a loan and then keep the family salve for generations!
