He retained his position after the reshuffle of 9 August 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MALAWI CABINET AS OF AUGUST 9, 2010 )〕 Mussa responded to a report in August 2009 that said children picking tobacco in the fields of Malawi were exposed to the nicotine equivalent of two packs of cigarettes per day. He said the government was reviewing labor laws, which should provide stiffer penalties for employing child labor. In June 2010, Mussa urged private sector employers to increase the salaries of their employees, as the government had done with public sector workers for the past six years. In January 2011, he said that the Tenants Labour Bill would soon be submitted to parliament. The bill aims to protect workers from exploitation, and to prevent children from being employed on estates. In February 2011, Mussa said that just 500,000 people, about 4% of the 13 million plus population of Malawi, were employed. He said that the "Government is still doing all it can to create jobs in the country". ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yunus Mussa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
