It is reported that all trade unions of the Central Bank have started to ‘work to rule’ from today until further notice as the next phase against the unfair tax practice imposed to please the International Monetary Fund.
It is revealed that the central bank governor, who was very upset about this trade union action which was carried out with prior notice, has threatened to stop the SLTB service provided to the employees and suspend the welfare allowances such as allowances given during the festival periods.
It is reported that Dr. Nandalal Weerasinghe, the governor of the central bank, who is acting like this, has participated in foreign trips in addition to domestic trips and embezzled more than $10,000 for the past few months. Following a ‘double policy’, he gets two pensions and fattens his money.
