đš Rwanda: prices are rising; but what about salaries? Inflation has now reached 15.7%.
đ Transport: +24.2%
đ Housing, water, electricity, gas & fuels: +20.4%
đ Food & non-alcoholic beverages: +16.3%
These arenât luxuries; they are the basic necessities people need to live.
The main question is: where is the discussion about wages and purchasing power?
Rwanda still has no modern, generally applicable minimum wage reflecting todayâs cost of living.
If prices can rise by 15â24% while workersâ salaries remain largely unchanged, how exactly are ordinary Rwandans supposed to absorb the difference?
Publishing inflation statistics is important. But what is the governmentâs plan to protect the people living with those statistics?

Absolutely delighted to see the documentary I worked on last year with NBC winning yet another prize - this is the second - for exposing the grim reality of Rwanda's military occupation of eastern DRC underneath all the lies. https://t.co/FMfMyxXgSe
