Mishahara ya wabunge, mawaziri na majaji juu!

[Janjaman]

Wananchi ndio waamuzi, siku tukisema sasa basi, yote yatawezekana. Lakini tukibaki kuangalia tu, watafanya watakavyo.

 

[Fidel80]

Tumeuza uhuru wetu wenyewe leo hii tunashindwa hata pa kukimbilia tofauti kati ya tajiri na maskini ni kubwa mno na serikali inazidi kujenga matabaka wenye kipato cha juu na wenye kipato cha chini ambao hata kujenga nyumba hawawezi.

 

[The Farmer]

Hii ndio Tanzania, aliye nacho anaongezewa na asiyenacho anabaki hivyo hivyo!!!

 

[Ng'azagala]

Kama hiyo ndio mishahara yao KWELI ni midogo sana. Hebu jaribu kuulizia mishahara ya wafuatao uone ninalojaribu kulieleza hapa;
1. Gavana wa BOT,CAG
2. Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa TANESCO,
3. Maafisa Watendaji Wakuu wa DAWASA, DAWASCO, EWURA, REA, SUMATRA, TCRA
4.Mkurugenzi wa TIC, PSRC
5. Uje pia kwenye Taasisi na asasi binafsi kama PSPF, LHRC, CTI uone watendaji wake wakuu wanalipwaje.

kwenye hii thread naona tumekuwa biased sana

nyongeza ya mishahara iliyotajwa ni ndogo sana, sioni kama ni ya kuipigia kelele sana, ni kama annual increment tu. kwani mtu mwenye mshahara wa 1,500,000/= ana annual increment ya around 60,000/=

Huyu speaker na jaji mkuu wakilipwa mshahara wa 4 m mbona ni kawaida jamani nyie mnaishi wapi? hii tanzania ni watu wangapi wa kawaida wanalipwa mishahara ya namna hiyo na wapo serikalini na kwenye mashirika? yule mkulu wa TANROADS mnakumbuka analipwa ngapi?

ukumbuke kuwa hao jamaa ndiyo wanaongoza kati mihimili mitatu (bunge, mahakama na serikali)

Trade unions up in arms on pay raise for 'fat cats'
By Mkinga Mkinga
THE CITIZEN

The government's decision to increase salaries for politicians and judges has angered civil servants. Speaking to The Citizen yesterday, trade union leaders termed the move as a betrayal to Tanzanian workers.

The Teachers Union president, Mr Gratian Mkoba, said the news surprised him as he was not aware of the Government's plans.

"I'm a member of the consultative council, which has been negotiating with the government on workers' claims. The Government has never hinted at such massive salary increase for a particular cadre of people," he said.

He said it was an indication that the Government had money and therefore he would start demanding for salary increase for teachers.

Tucta acting secretary general Nicholous Mgaya said the move to increase salaries for politicians and judges would widen the gap between the 'fat cats' and the civil servants. "The salary increase shows that some people live in another country, not Tanzania where other workers receive meagre amounts," he said. Mr Mgaya said the Government had said it did not have enough funds for salary increase and only raised the minimum salary rates by Sh4,100.

"This increment is going to divide and demoralise other public servants who have been struggling under their unions to press for their demands," he said. Information Officer in the Public Service Management Zamaradi Kawawa said she was not aware of the said increment.

"I know nothing about the increment you are talking about, but I have also read about it in papers, may be if you can tell me the source of the story I will be in a good position to respond to your questions," Ms Kawawa noted. The government has doubled the salaries for the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chief Justice effective this financial year.

The government has also reviewed salaries for a number of political leaders including Members of parliament. salaries for deputy speaker, ministers, their deputies, judges, regional commissioners and district commissioners have also been increased.

Before the increment, Speaker of the National Assembly and Chief Justice received Sh2.76 million each. With the 75.7 percent increase, they will now be smiling home with Sh4.8 million at the end of each month.

The deputy speaker, who used to get Sh2 million a month, will now receive Sh2.17 million, while salaries for MPs have been uplifted from Sh1,840,000 to Sh1.92 million.

Asked about the new salary scales, the Clerk of the National Assembly, Dr Thomas Kashillilah, said last week that he was aware of the salary increase but was not well informed about the changes.

"Salary rates for civil servants are pegged by the Government, it does not concern me therefore I can not confirm anything," he said when contacted by a reporter from our sister paper, Mwananchi.

According to the new salary rates, a High Court judge will now get more than Sh3.64 million -up from Sh2,160,000 and a Court of Appeal Judge will receive more than Sh4.2 million per month from Sh2,310,000.

Salaries for ministers have also been increased from Sh2,320,000 to more than Sh2.4 million, while a deputy minister will now pocket more than Sh2 million from Sh1,960,000.

The changes will also see a regional commissioner pocketing more than Sh2.1 million from Sh2,080,000 and a district commissioner will get more than Sh2. million --up from Sh1,840,000.

The government has also reviewed allowance rates for fuel, meetings and perdiems of the salary increase beneficiaries Under the changes, the Chief Justice will now be receiving Sh6 million annually to cover leadership allowance while Principal Judge will receive half that amount.

Total allowances for the judges will cost Tanzanian taxpayers a staggering Sh504 million every year.​

Hospitali zetu hazina madawa muhimu na vitanda lakini hawakuona hili kama linahitaji kipaumbele bali hilo la kuongeza mishahara ya wale ambao tayari wana mishahara na marupurupu makubwa kabisa. Kweli hii Serikali ni serikali ya kifisadi.

 

[Chapakazi]

Ivi ni bora kupandisha mishahara au kuongoze purchasing power (PP) ya pesa? Mimi ningechagua la pili, yani kuongeza PP. Na hii inawezekana kwa nchi kuwa more productive. Yani tukiweza kutengeneza vitu vyetu vyenyewe, cost yake ita-match uwezo wa ununuzi wa wananchi. Na hivyo mshahara wa laki utaweza kutimiza mahitaji mengi zaidi. Kwa spidi ya kupandisha mishahara, hapo papo tunapandisha inflation.

Politicians demand more amid pay rise
Some ministers have complained about the small salary increase ​

By Mkinga Mkinga
THE CITIZEN​

Pressure from politicians and members of the Judiciary is said to have pushed the Government into taking the controversial decision to increase salaries of senior civil servants and MPs in the face of recession. ​

But the move, which the Government made in the belief it would mollify a wide cross-section of the erstwhile 'underpaid' senior civil servants has not achieved the expected results, as complaints are still prevalent even from those whose pay packages have been increased. ​

Senior officers within the Government who preferred anonymity, told The Citizen that it was because of pressure from politicians and stakeholders in the legal sector that pushed the Government into okaying salary increments much as it feared the move attract criticism given the current economic situation. ​

Reports show that the Government has granted massive salary increase to the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chief Justice as of the current financial year. Alongside the move, the Government pushed up the pay of various cadres of the political leadership including Members of Parliament. ​

Information brought to the attention of The Citizen and confirmed by some sources within the Government, indicates that those whose salaries have been upped include the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly, ministers, their deputies, judges, regional commissioners and district commissioners. ​

Before the increment, monthly salaries of the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Chief Justice stood at Sh2.76 million. ​

Each received a 75.7 per cent increase, pushing up the salaried of the two heads of pillars of the State to more than Sh4.8 million a month. Since this was made public earlier this week by The Citizen's Kiswahili sister daily, Mwananchi, there has been outrage from various quarters, with many criticising the Government for being concerned only with the "wellbeing of small section of its workforce". ​

But, defending the Government's decision, a senior official in the ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs who, however asked for anonymity, said the Government did not increase the salaries on its own volition. ​

The source said the ministry officials along with their Public Service Management counterparts were summoned to a meeting in which they received clear instructions to find ways to implement a decision that had already been made, namely, to raise salaries of some government executives. ​

"It was quite tricky � how do you ignore demands of salary increments from your bosses? All ministries are under those politicians, you know! I am not sure if they know that their order has caused a lot of problems not only in the ministry, but in the entire Government," the source said. ​

But sought for comments, the minister for Finance and Economic Affairs, Mr Mustafa Mkulo, said he was not aware of the issue. ​

"Currently I'm in my Kilosa constituency, I have heard about it through media and a deputy minister commented by issuing details of the increment, so he might be more in the know regarding the matter than me," Mr Mkulo said. ​

However, the finance minister agreed that the issue was sensitive and was likely to raise discontent from most public servants. ​

But information obtained by The Citizen indicates that complaints have also been raised by some of the very people who have received pay rise. ​

Sources hinted that one official has been querying the criteria used to set the new salaries, citing the big gaps that now exist between cadres with almost matching responsibilities. ​

The deputy minister for Finance and Economic Affairs, Omar Yussuf Mzee is on record as saying some ministers had phoned him complaining that the salary increase they received was too meagre compared to their "huge responsibilities". ​

Efforts to reach the Minister for State, Public Service Management Ms Hawa Ghasia, to clarify the Government move to increase salaries for some workers in the civil service have so far failed, for she could not be reached on her mobile phone each time we rang. ​

The permanent secretary, Mr George Yambesi, could not be reached either, as his phone rang incessantly without being picked.
Under the changes, salaries for the deputy speaker, MPs, minister and their deputies and judges have been increased. ​

The deputy speaker, who has been earning a monthly pay of Sh2 million, will now receive Sh2.17 million, while salaries for MPs have been raised from Sh1.84 million to Sh1.92 million. ​

According to the new rates, a High Court judge will get more than Sh3.64 million � up from Sh2.16 million and a Court of Appeal Judge will receive more than Sh4.2 million per month, up from Sh2.31 million. ​

Salaries for ministers have also been increased from Sh2.32 million to more than Sh2.4 million, while that of deputy ministers have been increased to over Sh2 million from Sh1.96 million. ​

The changes will also see a regional commissioner pocketing about Sh2.1 million, up from Sh2.08 million, while a district commissioner, who had been earning Sh1.84million, will now receive Sh2 million. ​

The Government decision drew immediate criticism from Tanzania Teachers Union (TTU) and workers� umbrella organisation, Tucta, saying they were shocked by the move because the same Government had told them that it cannot raise its employees' salaries due to the global financial crisis that has not spared Tanzania​
