Berty,
Its sound good but very little you can do with Rs 6000 particularly now.
The cost of living is going through the roof. You will be surprised to note that with Rs 6,000 you cannot make ends meet.
It is pathetic.

Lanka,
You have touched a very interesting point.
Though cruel in one perspective, the other side of the story is that a family back in the village is fed with that salary.
Anyway, my family is paying to an old lady and not to a child.

Berty,
Officially that( U$420) is the salary of Ministry Secretary in Sri Lanka.
BTW A bank teller who is realtively paid a higher salary than a standard clerk gets a little more than Rs 15,000.

Berty,
It will be a pleasure to have a race with a decent guy.
Why not?
We could not beat you in cricket, let me try at least in this forum.
Good Luck
Kula
