Luanda: MPLA promises to re-evaluate the public sector’s remuneration system, in order to make the workers’ salaries more compatible, informed this Tuesday, in Luanda, Manuel Nunes Júnior, member of the Political Bureau.
This plan is part of MPLA’s governing programme for the 2022-2027 period, which will be implemented if the party wins the general election on the 24th
