Tiawan Gongloe has described as scandalous the appropriation of hefty salaries by Liberian Legislature while the people they represent live in abject poverty. Gongloe said it is shameful that the annual salaries of the heads of the Liberian Legislature – the Speaker and President Pro Tempore are by far higher than their United States counterparts. The Liberian dollars they are dumping is not being paired with any US dollars, because we are an exporting country. There will be so much Liberian dollars on the market chasing the US dollars, which mean the exchange rate will be high. Because people want Liberian dollars to import good and they might increase the price.
