Zeka: The government proposal for minimum wage is just, 100 million could have been invested in other ways
The executive director of the American Chamber of Commerce in Kosovo, Arian Zeka, has stated that the proposal to increase the minimum wage to 250 euros net is a fair decision of the government and more reasonable compared to other proposals that have been from 400 to 500 euros.
However, regarding the new measures to support 800 thousand citizens with 100 euros each, Zeka thinks that it would have been better to invest these funds in other ways that would have multiplier effects on the country's economy.
Zeka in an interview for KosovaPress said that there is no denying the fact that these additional funds will have an impact on the economy, while declaring that the problems arising from these funds of 100 million euros should be taken into account, with the further increase of consumption, rising inflation and deepening trade deficit.
