The Yemeni Legitimate Government pays salaries to public employees in Sana'a‏

Thousands of government employees inside rebel-controlled Sana’a have received months of unpaid salaries after the internationally recognised government in Aden transferred the money through a local exchange company, Gulf News state-run media said on Wednesday

Public servants in the liberated provinces have not been paid their salaries since September when president Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi ordered relocating the central bank from Sana’a to Aden to put an end to Al Houthis’ plundering of the monetary authority’s reserves

Al Houthis responded by cutting off salaries, driving Hadi’s government into assuring the public that it would pay all public servants who were added to the payroll before Al Houthis’ coup in late 2014

This week, the government sent two cheques worth hundreds of millions of rials to the Sana’a-based Al Kurimi Exchange Company in order to to pay the government salaries in Sana’a. Government employees in other Al Houthi-held provinces are expected to receive their salaries through the same company in the coming days, the government said in a statement carried by the sate-run Saba news agency. The government has recently announced the end of a chronic cash crunch after the arrival of billions of rials in cash printed in Russia
