Banker Levon Hampartzumyan with a comment on the lack of consensus on the minimum wage. Official Minister of Labor and Social Policy Ivaylo Ivanov stated that it is expected to be BGN 1,077 from January 1 next year. Thus, the net income will increase and reach BGN 835.73.
„Strategic mistake. This means that anyone, even the one who has not made any effort to educate himself and learn the trade, will receive 200-300 BGN less than a person who studied to be a doctor for 5 years. This is madness. Then we will wonder why young doctors, nurses and engineers find work somewhere else," said Hampartsumyan in the program "Offensive with Ljubo Ognyanov". on NOVA NEWS.
„There is a more important number than the minimum wage. How many are the members of the trade unions in Bulgaria, on whose behalf do they negotiate? It is good to know what proportion of the people who work are union members. NOI should say whether to raise the maximum threshold for insurance, the banker believes.
According to him, “raising taxes, without closing the holes in the land from which our money is leaking, will not have the desired effect". He also commented on what will happen to housing prices with the new BNB
rules„I advise people who buy homes to pay attention to the organization - is there enough space, is there parking. All of these things are important. Sofia already has large parts with new urbanization that is dramatic - narrow streets with new buildings. The prices of these properties will not last long. When better urbanized areas appear, people with opportunities will move there, and the quality of life in these modern poorly urbanized ghettos will go down," Hampartsumyan believes.
