Episode description
Last week, Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) and the Jaringan Pekerja Kontrak Kerajaan (JPKK) submitted a memorandum to the Human Resource Minister, Steven Sim, urging the government to increase the minimum wage to RM 2000. Currently, the minimum wage is set at RM 1500.
Earlier in March, Steven Sim mentioned that the government will review the minimum wage this year, but there have been no updates on the matter since.
We speak to Saratbabu Raman, chief of PSM’s Worker’s Bureau about their push for a higher minimum wage.
