There's no better term to describe the legislative ploy to flatter - and ingratiate themselves with - the labor force with across-the-board daily wage increase of P125 in three-year span.


Such cruelty is so obvious even to the so-so minds, that is, the "honorable" solons knew all along that such radical raise is beyond realization. Should any of the legislators demur otherwise, it may boomerang on his face, of how dense and shallow could be his perception of the labor-capital economic balancing scale.

The Department of Budget and Management (DBM) assured government workers yesterday that their Christmas bonus this year will not be less than P5,000 and that they will get half of their 13th month pay on Nov. 15.


At the same time, DBM Secretary Rolando Andaya said state employees could expect a third round of salary increase after Congress passes the 2007 budget proposed by Malacañang.


Andaya said President Arroyo would make the official announcement about the Christmas gift in early December.
