The Maldivian Civil Servant Association (MCSA) said at a rally yesterday that it will file a lawsuit against the finance ministry if civil servants are given the lowered salary this month.
MSCA spokesman Abdulla Mohamed said the organisation was placing five lawyers on standby.
”The finance minister [Ali Hashim] has personal issues against the civil servants, he’s being stubborn,” Abdulla said, adding that the problems were getting worse “because [Hashim] does not have much knowledge on how to handle a government’s finance ministry.”
”Whatever he thinks is right at the moment, he does. He does not plan things well,” Abdulla claimed.
