The President of Yemen’s Supreme Political Council Saleh al-Sammad instructed the National Salvation Government to prepare the general budget and complete the constitutional procedures for its approval so as to collect revenues, and provide salaries for all the state employees.
The Saudi-led military campaign against Yemen has put a stranglehold on the country’s economy, leaving many state employees unpaid for months.
Saleh Al-Sammad directed the government and the Central Bank of Yemen to work on finding alternatives to resolve liquidity issues.
In addition he stressed the importance of forming a higher economic council in the coming days. The President also directed the government to activate the mechanisms and tools to combat customs smuggling and tax evasion as well as encourage the private sector and simplify procedures so as to enhance the national economy and provide services to the Yemeni people.
