The government will increase the minimum income it guarantees poorly paid older people under its income supplement scheme.

The government says it will increase the minimum by 6.4 percent to MOP5,000 (US$625) a month. The increase will be backdated to January.

The scheme tops up with cash the incomes of poorly paid Macau permanent residents aged 40 or older.
