The Burmese government has announced that it will increase the salaries
of all public sector employees starting from April 1, when the country
will hold important parliamentary by-elections.

of the armed forces, will receive a monthly cost-of-living allowance of
30,000 kyat (US $38) beginning next month. Public servants currently
earn an average of around 50,000 kyat ($63) per month.
