| Date | 13:06:14, March 19, 2006 CET | From | New Daio Party | To | Debating the minimum wage |
| Message | The Consulate needs no minimum wage. The current poverty line is at approximately Z14,500 The lowest known full-time wage is just shy of Z21,000. This bill is utterly unneeded and to put such an absurdity in place can only reduce the quality of life. |
