It is high time we agree to the fact that private companies in Bahrain must wake up and realise how poor paymasters they are.
Oil price slump, VAT, high utility bills, Covid-19 and recession – yet seven out of 10 working class individuals, especially expats, will say their salaries do not match these changes.
