Although the move benefits the cross-section of retired employees, those in higher brackets have gained more in real terms. New pensions for defence and railway personnel will be notified separately.

Older pensioners have an added reason to rejoice. Centenarians will get 100% extra pension calculated at revised rates. Similarly, those over 80 years will get an additional 20% of their basic pension. This goes up by 30%, 40% and 50% for those over 85, 90 and 95, respectively

To get an idea of the quantum of hike, a person with a basic pension of Rs 10,000 — who used to get Rs 22,050 in hand — will now receive a total pension of Rs 26,216. The new rates are effective from January 2006 and the arrears will be given out in two installments — 40% during the current fiscal, 60% in 2009-10 .

The maximum gratuity too has been revised to Rs 10 lakh, up from the earlier Rs 3.5 lakh. If an employee dies during service, his family will now get full pension (enhanced family pension) for 10 years.

The new rules also add more flexibility in retirement benefits. For instance, those who are due to retire can now get 40% of their pension commuted and get a lump sum amount in turn.

GOLDEN SMILES

1. Minimum pension Rs 4,060, up from earlier Rs 2,813 in hand (revised pension to be effective from Jan 1, '06).
2. Maximum pension Rs 52,200, up from Rs 33,075.
3. Maximum gratuity up to Rs 10 lakh (depending on years of service and last salary drawn).
4. Enhanced family pension, for employees dying in service, to be full pension for 10 years.
5. Employees eligible for full pension if service is for 20 years.
6. Incremental additional pension for those 80 years and above. People over 100 to get double pension.

…men ingen promenad! Pensionärer med låg pension kommer att få en skattelättnad som innebär 2300-3500 kronor per år.

Det är givetvis inte tillräckligt men är ändå ett steg i rätt riktning. I samband med detta ”steg” har utfästelser gjorts om ytterligare höjningar nu i form av höjd pension och bostadstillägget så nu får man börja med nästa STEG att ta bort ÅLDERSDIDKRIMINERINGEN .

En ese sentido, todo aquello que este orientado a materializar dicha pension, es decir que llegue a manos de la madre para que ella disponga lo mejor para su hijo, debe ser realizado en el mas breve plazo por los operadores de justicia.

Pero la realidad es tan brusca, tan agresiva, tan inclemente que al toparnos con ella, nos damos cuenta que -NO hay dudas- estamos en el Peru.

Los jueces y operadores judiciales siguen haciendo de las suyas, dejando para despues, los procesos por alimentos de menores de edad.

¿Que diablos quieren que hagamos para que se pongan las pilas estos imbeciles?

Claro, como las madres de familia NO tienen los recursos para un abogado que este impulsando el proceso judicial, se mofan de ellas.

Impulsar el proceso significa en terminos sencillos y campechanos: alcanzarle una tazita de cafe al Juez, llevarle una gaseosita helada para que pueda calmar su sed, obsequiarle una galleta de chocolate antes de terminar el dia, y otras tantas atenciones de bajo calibre.

Claro esta, si la prisa agobia, ya sabes que una billetera delgada NO resuelve absolutamente nada.

Lo unico que queda en nuestras manos, es quejarse ante la ODICMA para que esta tome cartas en el asunto y se sancione al Juez que sentado en su despacho luego de la hora del almuerzo, tiene el tiempo necesario y suficiente para estar charlando con sus amistades.

Asi es, date un tiempo para ingresar al Juzgado en horas de la tarde luego del horario de almuerzo. Es un relajo total.

Los Jueces conversando amenamente de cualquier cosa en lugar de estar resolviendo mas procesos judiciales, de los pocos que ya resuelve.

¿Que falta cambiar? ¿Tienen la autoridad moral para ser llamado Juez?

Ser Juez NO solo es tener el cargo otorgado por el Estado para que lo represente en la mision de hacer justicia. Sino que hay que ganarse con creces el simple hecho de ser mencionado como tal.

Cuando una madre de familia, se acerca a pedir que NO se demore el proceso, a reclamarle por la demora, este Juez NO pone siquiera la atencion debida. Entrega frases simplistas generalizando la situacion de todos los justiciables.

Cambios muy drasticos se requiere, para que nuestro Sistema Judicial deje de ser una verdadera porqueria.

A duty to disclose may arise when one party to a contract has superior knowledge which is not available to both parties even if no fiduciary relationship arose under those circumstances. See Stambovsky v. Ackley. In this case according to the complaint, the organization had access to information that appellants did not have regarding the administration of the pension plan, including the occurrence of the meeting where the rate was changed.

Fremskridtspartiet og offentligt ansatte

Glistrup: ”Vi jagter ikke offentligt ansatte, men vil skabe et bedre Danmark for alle”.

Enhver ny folkelig bevægelse vil altid indeholde elementer af protest og kritik mod det bestående magtsystem. Sådan havde Socialdemokratiet og Venstre det for 100 år siden. Og sådan har Fremskridtspartiet det i dag.

Heri ligget noget overmåde sundt for os, der er gennemsyrede af demokratiets grundideer.

De etablerede magthavere føler sig lige så åbenbart irriterede, når de bliver kritiserede. ”Hvad skal dog sådan noget nyt til for?”. Derfor bruger de i alle historiens epoker og i alle lande deres magtpositioner til at bekæmpe nytænkere.

Derfor er det letforståeligt, at organisationspaverne bekæmper fremskridtsbevægelsen og for eksempel arrangerer en demonstration mod os.

Skal der komme noget nyttigt ud heraf, er det imidlertid tåbeligt at pådutte os synspunkter, som vi ikke har, således som den offentlige debat har været præget af. Lad mig derfor her fortælle sandheden om fremskridtspolitikken vedrørende de offentligt ansatte:

1. Vi mener, at en stor del af Danmarks ulykke beror på, at vi bruger al for meget af vor arbejdskraft på golde skrivebordspapirsysler. Det kan man imidlertid ikke bebrejde de offentligt ansatte, men alene de folketingsflertal, som har gennemført reglerne herom. Vor kamp er derfor rettet på at få lovene ændrede, mens det ikke er nogen kamp mod de mennesker, som virker ved administrativt arbejde.

2. De administratorer, hvis stillinger vi vil nedlægge, vil vi sikre ny beskæftigelse på langt mere menneskelige vilkår, end Danmark i 1950´erne bød de mange landbrugere, der blev jaget til byerne, eller i 1960´erne de smånæringsdrivende, der brød sammen under det voksende bureaukratis pres.

3. Vi anerkender fuldt ud, at sygepleje, hjemmehjælp, regneundervisning o.s.v. er vigtige opgaver, der skal skatteyderbetales.

4. Alle offentligt ansatte får reallønsfremgang i det velstandssamfund, vil vi skabe. Skattelettelsen er væsentligt større end statens lønudgiftsnedgang.

5. Pensionsforholdene må gøres ens for alle ældre, så skatteyderne betaler det samme kronebeløb i pension til den 67 årige tidligere B & W-arbejder eller kontormand som til 67 årige, der i sine aktive år har været professor eller minister. Fremskridtspartiet arbejder meget hårdt for, at så at sige alle – også offentligt ansatte – reelt kan opnå en højere pension end nu. Der sker gennem vore forslag til store forhøjelser af folkepensionssatsen, betydelige forhøjelser af den skattefri bundgrænse og bremsning af inflationen. vi må imidlertid erkende, at de første par år må bruges til oprydning efter det økonomiske rod, som socialdemokrater m.fl. har skabt, og at de kæmpestore forhøjelser af folkepensionssatsen derfor først kommer til at finde sted i 1980´erne.

Fremskridtspartiet er ved at udforme overgangsregler, der både er rimelige overfor den enkelte og samtidig ligger inden for rammerne for den nødvendige politik til landets frelse. Vi sender gang på gang vore skitseforslag herom til udtalelse hos tjenestemandsorganisationerne og får dem lige så regelmæssigt tilbage med et hovent svar. Dette er ikke nogen fornuftig arbejdsgang.

Hvad specielt angår det enkeltforslag, som har givet anledning til demonstrationen, har det absolut intet at gøre med de overenskomstmæssigt aftalte pensionsordninger. Ifølge forslagets egen tekst skal det nemlig først træde i kraft ved den nuværende overenskomstperiodes udløb.

Mogens Glistrup

For an aging population, there were some comments that must be noted:

1. By 2030, more than half the population of Australia will be over 50 years old
2. "the issue of aging ..is a greater crisis than climate change"
3. Australia is wasting the talents of millions of older people
4. "we cannot economically sustain a retirement age of 65"

This is an important issue for all developed countries where women are having fewer children later, if at all. The boomers are also wanting to continue their lifestyles without being pensioned off to watch TV all day, and want to continue to work and add value to companies and meaning to their lives. A discussion of age policy is also critical because governments just can't afford to pay the age pension when the working population will be so few compared to the retired within this generation.

So how does it affect your working life - which is what this blog is all about?

• Do you want to retire from this current job/ industry at 75? Can you bear it for that long? If not, better make a change in your job/ career earlier on.
  Related blog post: http://joannapenn.com/2008/07/22/career-change-7-steps-to-a-new-you/
• Do you have enough money to retire earlier? If the age pension is dropped, or only starts at 75, can you afford your present lifestyle in the future?
  Related blog post: http://joannapenn.com/2008/08/02/money5-financial-tips/

These decisions on policy will affect everyone, and it will not just be Australia. With the economic crises in the US and UK, similar discussions will be had.
A friend commented the other day how fast her life was flying by. Suddenly it is September 2008 - where has the year gone?
When will you be 75? The years will fly by, and you don't want to be on the non-existent government pension then. So start now by reviewing your financial situation, and looking forward - even just a few years.

Chapter 8 from the free workbook also contains questions and diagrams to help with your financial situation, http://joannapenn.com/free-e-workbook-plus-chapter-1-of-the-book/

Generaler får gylden pension
Tenestemandspension kan give op til en halv million om året resten af livet. Ordningen falder regeringen for brystret.
... Generalerne sidder bagskrivebordet ... Skriver politiken.dk.

Når de igennem mange år har risikeret liv og lemmer ved at være bagbundet til skrivebordet, er det mindste, de kan forlange, vel en te'næstelivspension.

Men vi skal have harmoniseret og homogeniseret militær- med politifolk og fængselsbetjente.

Websitet (klik på de øverste menupunkter -- under sider) handler især om Danmarks Radio & Co.

Og om hvordan statsradiofoniens arvtagere specielt ved deres valg og vinkling af nyheder
(Børn&Bananas, Danske Danskere, JanteFjante, Myter&Traditioner, TumpeTV, Varmvind&Lunluft)
er med til at gøde jorden for Fogh, Pia den fromme K. og andre mere eller mindre fordækte nationalister
samt Sand&Salighedsmonopolister med en mission om at Danmark skal frelse verden
-- og så også lige (med den anden hånd) knække The Axis of Evil.

DR&Co.s udanske dansktone sigter efter at producere konsensus om Danmarks og danske danskeres overlegenhed.
Sammen med det der trives i et sådant klima kan den meget vel være en medårsag til den senere tids voldsomme sammenstød (ReligionsRabalder, KulturKamp). Ikke kun på religiøse og etniske fronter, men også mellem kreative unge og etablerede magtstrukturer samt magthavere, som tror, de kan gå på vandet.

English abstract
This blog/site is about the connection between Danish media and nationalism, xenophobia and especially islamophobia in Denmark. As the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) said in its Third Report on Denmark:
...
Climate of opinion
...
104. ECRI notes with deep concern that, as indicated above, the climate in Denmark has worsened since its second report and that there is a pervasive atmosphere of intolerance and xenophobia against refugees, asylum seekers, as well as minority groups in general and Muslims in particular. The media, together with politicians play a major role in creating this atmosphere.

Just wanted to link Gail Vaz-Oxlade's blog. Good, healthy reading.

http://www.gailvazoxlade.com/blog/

Retirement is the time in life when it's okay to ENJOY yourself. Your formal education has been completed, your family has been raised and your career has come to an end. No one is going to tell you what to do any more. You can just ENJOY. You can make quilts or build bookcases or spoil grandchildren or play the guitar or sleep all day.
