'Provide more allocation for garment workers'

Workers' Party of Bangladesh President Rashed Khan Menon MP yesterday demanded additional allocation for the garment workers as they are deprived of justified salaries compared to their efforts.
“The garment workers are contributing a lot to achieving foreign remittance for the country, but they are always neglected. They should be paid with their justified salaries,” he said.
Menon was addressing the third council of the central committee of Bangladesh Garment Labourers-Workers Federation at Muktangan in the city.
Criticising the proposed budget for the fiscal 2009-10, he said, “In the budget allocations have been kept for all sectors except the garment workers. It is inhumane.”
He demanded introduction of rationing system for the garment workers.
General Secretary of the party Bimal Biswas, General Secretary of the federation Kamrul Ahasan and labour leader Abul Bashar also spoke, among others.
