Charity, and the minimum wage, begins at home

I fully agree with Khun Yingwai Suchaovanich's comment on Khun Dhanin Chearavanont's suggestion of a minimum wage of Bt500.

 

To me, this is only a tycoon’s lip service, speaking out to make him look good. I have been hearing the “Two-High” philosophy for quite some time; my suggestion to Khun Dhanin is instead of urging the government to do so, start with your own CP group first, if you really believe, and are sincere about, what you said. Also, it is unbelievable to learn that CP doesn’t provide a provident fund for its employees. How come a big corporation with over 20,000 employees like CP does not have this very important employee’s benefit? Please correct me if I’m wrong.
