Rama: Sustainable growth fueled higher wages and pensions

TIRANA, March 31/ATA/ Prime Minister Edi Rama, also chairman of the Socialist Party, stated today that the economy is maintaining a consistent upward trend.

During the meeting of the SP Assembly in the municipal unit No 7 in the capital, Rama stated that this is evidenced by the recent increases in public sector salaries.

“Thanks to economic improvements, we are finally rewarding the seniority of our doctors, nurses, military, and teachers, fulfilling a goal we have long aimed to achieve”, said Rama.

The prime minister emphasized that thanks to the increased prosperity, we are moving ahead.

Further on, he pointed to the paradox between the claims by certain portals of increased corruption and increase of the state revenues; or the paradox between claims of increased corruption with procurements and the increase of savings from procurements.

The prime minister also highlighted the fact that thanks to this economic growth, the pensions are also increasing.

“Pensions are in their first year of growth. This has happened because opportunities have increased and the economy has grown and we have managed to collect more revenue without increasing taxes,” said Rama. /j.p/r.e/p.s./
