                    [Summary] => TACLOBAN CITY — The Eastern Visayas wage board approved the other day a P7 increase in the cost of living allowance (COLA) and a uniform daily minimum wage of P177 for workers in the region.


Forter Puguon, regional head of the labor department, said workers who render full-day service will now get a COLA of P18.


Puguon said the board agreed to enforce a uniform regional wage since the prices of basic goods "are the same whether you are in Leyte or Samar." 


There are some two million workers in the region.
