The majority of public service employees earn less than $2 191 while their counterparts in the private sectors earn even less. Meanwhile, the local currency was trading at $15, 57 against US$1 on the official interbank foreign exchange market and was $21 against US$1 on the black market as of Friday last week. *More: The Standard* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
