KUCHING: The introduction of the RM800 minimum wage in the private sector here will certainly raise the income of employees and improve their standard of living, opined Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud.
He also believes with the enforcement of the minimum wage ruling, the country will be able to have a pay structure similar to those in developed nations.
This in turn, he said, would bring the country closer to achieving its Vision 2020 to be a high income society, he said when officiating at the Parti Pesaka Bumiputera Bersatu (PBB) Youth Armada ‘Humanitarian Mission’ here on Tuesday.
