President Rodrigo Duterte urged Department of Labor and
Employment Secretary Sivestre Bello III to thoroughly review the balancing of
the minimum wages in Metro Manila and Provinces in the entire country.
One of the reasons why Manila is crowded and overpopulated because people migrate to manila to aspire a high salary compared to their respective provinces. Bello said to DZMM Teleradyo upon his interview.
Government and other agency concern is considering this
proposed. Yet, Government created a Bill in congress which expected to pass by
this end of October 2016, Bello said.
Upon passage of the said bill the national wages board per
region will be irrelevant. Now, many of our citizens are waiting for the result
of this proposed salary standardization.
