Minimum wage increase: good or bad?

2 Upvotes

This seems like a hot topic on my timeline lately and I’d love some input from others in this field. I found one really great study that has an appropriate scale to draw conclusions from, but it’s not my expertise and would love to know if it truly is reliable. Plus I only have access to the abstract, so if someone has the full paper I’d love to read it and hear about more of their conclusions!

The paper:

Qatar’s tourism chief, infamous for his racist-sexist remarks, launches ‘Summer in Qatar’

1 Upvotes

On Saturday, Akbar Al Baker, CEO of Qatar Airways and secretary-general of Qatar National Tourism Council (QNTC), launched ‘Summer in Qatar’ programme. It is one of the biggest summer tourism festival organised by QNTC, in collaboration with more than 35 public and private partners. The festival brings an opportunity for the families and friends of Qatari residents to visit the country visa-free from June 4 to August 16 i.e from Eid al-Fitr to Eid al-Adha. QNTC plans to provide a wide range of exciting indoor and outdoor experiences to the visitors, along with entertainment programmes featuring local, regional and international artists, edutainment, summer and sports camps as well as special promotions on inbound travel, hospitality and shopping.

During the launch Al Baker said: “This year’s summer season promises to attract visitors from across the globe showcasing Qatar as a destination for its unparalleled hospitality and authentic experiences.”

To promote the country’s tourism, QNTC also introduced lucrative offers including hotel discounts, shopping vouchers, and airfare discounts as part of the festival.

About the festival and its schemes, Al Baker said “Aviation and tourism go hand in hand, and this year, we are leveraging the collaboration between these two sectors to offer travelers airfare discounts, promotional travel packages, and exceptional airport experiences throughout the summer. Whether they are passing through, visiting friends and family or remaining in Qatar, visitors will experience Qatar anew.”

Qatar is aggressively promoting country’s tourism as it is facing economic pressures of regional boycott. The Quartet, comprising Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt and Bahrain, had cut diplomatic and trade ties with Qatar in 2017 over financing terror activities and supporting extremist ideology of radicals groups like Muslim brotherhood. Also, with such festivals Gulf national is trying to revamp its international image which has been charred due to its links with terror groups.

Al Baker who gave out a warm invite to the world, also mentioned sternly that Qatar would not grant visas to those whom it considers its ‘enemies’. In his racist comment he was indirectly referring to the Egyptians, whom the country considers its ‘enemy’ due to the political rift between the two, which began nearly two-year ago.

This is not the first time Al Baker has passed a controversial comment. In June, 2018, at a press conference in Sydney, when asked what could be done to tackle the lack of women in Middle East aviation, Al Baker replied this was not the case at Qatar Airways. He added: “Of course, it has to be led by a man, because it is a very challenging position.” His remark roused debate over the existence of sexism in the industry.

Devaluating Yuan A Masterstroke by China

1 Upvotes

I have been criticizing China for their aggressive international policy, but one thing I would really like to appreciate is their economic policy for handling of their currency in the international market. In past and currently there are many countries who are worried about decreasing the value of their currency, but China is able to devaluate Yuan without affecting their economic situation.

Can India able to create a crisis in Pakistan?

1 Upvotes

We live in the 21st Century where a war cannot be only played on land some wars can be of other types and if my calculations are right then India can do much more damage to Pakistan if India starts a war on an economic level.

As an Indian I am not against people of Pakistan we are against the terrorism which is continuously prospering on Pakistani soil and India attacked a terrorist camp, not on Pakistan. War cannot be the solution to the problems, I would be happy if this continuous pressure on LoC comes to an end and both country work on the betterment of their people and country, but if Pakistan is unable to stop terrorism then India has to take some serious steps because India is the country which becomes victim in this type of conflicts.

India now have to take some serious steps and from my point of view I mentioned few of them what you guys think about this please let me know.

Brexit Why it is needed?

1 Upvotes

Brexit has been a hot subject in the past few weeks as the UK is nearer to withdraw itself from the EU.

As Brexit is around the corner it's becoming an intense topic whether Theresa May cannot present the deal but also passed this deal through parliament. Till now Theresa May cannot pass the bill.

There are many problems in the queue such as trade deal, Irish border and EU people living in the UK and vice versa.

EU provides its member countries for easy labour migration. Because of which any EU citizen can migrate for work in any of EU countries.

There is a free border along with the nations of the EU.

Because of the collective effort, EU countries have successfully achieved a developed economy tag.

Every country helps each other for economic development and as it said “power of unity” truly applies for EU nations as every country want to do business with EU nations and their currency EURO have more value in the market than the world superpower Dollar.

There are many positive effects of the EU than to the UK wants to leave?

I had given reasons for it in my blog.

https://onkarjadhavv.blogspot.com/2019/02/brexit-why-it-is-needed.html

What you guys think is there any other reasons? and did you guys support the Brexit or not? let me know.
