PUTRAJAYA, Dec 24 (Bernama) — I fully support the decision made by the Human Resources Minister YB Kula Segaran to increase the minimum wage to RM1,200 in 57 towns and cities in Malaysia.
The increase of RM100, from RM1,100 to RM1,200 in cities and towns appears reasonable and it will not cause any significant impairment to the bottomlines of employers. It is in tandem with the higher living costs in major cities and towns and it is consonant with the rate of current inflation.
