Jorida Tabaku: Pensioners dependent on government handouts! It increased only 50 lek per day, the reform has failed!

The deputy of the Democratic Party, Jorida Tabaku, says that the increase in pensions is just a handout given by the government.

Through a post on Facebook, the democratic deputy states that their pensions are increased by only 50 lek per day, while the prices of basket products have increased by 30%.

According to her, the pension reform scheme has failed, while the government refuses to see it.

"Yesterday the parliament discussed the pension reform, of course a lot was lost due to the noise of the day. At the end of the day, the government promises an additional 50 lek per day for pensions, an additional 50 lek for survival.

What can a pensioner buy with 50 lek, when prices have increased by almost 30%? When every basket product starting from oil, sugar and every other food has increased by 30%, how can a pensioner survive on 50 lek a day?

Of course, these figures are not new, these figures come after the failure of the pension reform, after the failure of a scheme which the government refuses to see.

We have a high level of informality, we have a very large departure of young people and we have an increasing aging age, today 1/3 of the population is of retirement age.

Meanwhile, 15,000 pensioners are added every year. And who is the government's answer? The alms of the day!", writes Tabaku.
