Will Government Workers Get a Pay Raise?
June 05, 2024
The upcoming budget will reveal if salaries are increasing for all the people who work for the government. My sources say discussions are happening about giving employees a bump in how much they earn. Some options on the table include raising everyone's salary between 10-15%. Workers who earn less will surely hope this helps with costs that keep rising. Higher-up bosses may see their extra payments go up too. Teachers, nurses and all the rest are waiting to hear what the budget brings. Inflation is squeezing everyone's spending money. Even if salaries do rise, will it be enough to keep up with expensive food, gas and bills? The budget unveiling on June 12th isn't too far away. Until then, offices everywhere will buzz with people wondering and worrying. Government workers power so much of what keeps our country running each day. Hopefully the new budget shows them some help with handling high prices. We'll all find out together very soon!

The recently concluded COP28 brought both hope & concern for Pakistan, a nation struggling with the harsh impacts of climate change, notably the devastating floods of 2022. One significant announcement was 'Recharge Pakistan,' a fund urged by Pakistan during COP27. While hailed as a positive step by Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar Ul Haq Kakar, the fund amount, as reported by The Guardian, is just a fraction of what developing countries need to combat climate-related challenges. Another crucial focus at COP28 was on health and farming with implications for Pakistan. The Agriculture Innovation Mission for Climate (AIM for Climate) backed by over $17 billion from the US & the UAE, aims to promote climate-friendly farming globally. The UAE & various charities promise $777 million to combat neglected tropical diseases by rising temperatures, recognizing climate-related factors as a significant threat to human health.
