Jordan's King Abdullah said kingdom's economy and job creation are top priorities for the country, reported Bloomberg. In a speech inaugurating the second session of the country's 15th parliament today, the monarch said 'the economy still tops our priorities, especially its social dimension, due to the economic challenges that resulted from international rising prices'. The king said the government needs to link salaries to inflation and ordered it to raise salaries starting next year. He also said the minimum wage will be raised.
