The article discusses the third round of negotiations for Cambodia's 2022 minimum wage for garment and footwear workers. Union representatives are seeking a $6 increase from the current $198 wage, while employers propose reducing it to $188 due to COVID-19-related losses. The government suggests maintaining it at $192, balancing economic impacts and worker needs. Union leaders argue that rising living costs justify a wage hike, criticizing employers for neglecting workers' hardships despite increased exports. The final decision, involving economic and social considerations, will be made on September 28.
