Hope as Mogae appoints salary commission

However, president of the Botswana Federation of Trade Unions Japhta Radibe is worried that implementation of findings of such commissions usually take long. He said he did not place much faith in the commissions.
"Government should introduce collective bargaining and negotiation forums instead of commissions," he stated.

 
The MP for Gaborone Central and Botswana Congress Party (BCP) publicity secretary, Dumelang Saleshando cast doubt on the composition of the team, saying almost all its members are products of macro-economics who are unresponsive to any new thinking.
"We need a more competent and relevant commission," he said.
