Bangladesh inflation touched 10-year high in Aug_我的网站

人间正道是沧桑

一 | Dhaka, Oct 12 (UNI) Inflation in Bangladesh accelerated to 9.52 per cent in August, the highest in 10 years, mainly driven by higher food prices, the Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS) has reported.

In addition, the country's overall inflation eased slightly to 9.10 per cent in September, according to Planning Minister MA Mannan on Tuesday.

Data showed that food inflation soared to 9.94 per cent in August, the highest since April of 2012, and eased slightly to 9.08 per cent in September.

Non-food items inflation, however, increased to 9.13 per cent in September from 8.85 percent in August, the data showed.

Due to higher food prices amid uncertainties stemming from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Mannan said inflation has been on an upward trend over the past several months in Bangladesh.

He stressed the need for bolstering food production domestically to rein in soaring food prices.

Mannan, however, expressed his satisfaction with the decrease in CPI in September, saying it's good news for the government as it tried to rein in inflation in line with the budgetary target.

In June, the country unveiled a record nearly 7 trillion-taka (about 70 billion U.S. dollars) national budget for the 2022-23 fiscal year starting in July and the government said it is committed to containing the rising trend of inflation by addressing inconsistencies between supply and demand.

According to the budget proposal, Bangladesh is targeting an average inflation rate of 5.6 per cent in the new fiscal year.

　　据ESPN报道，萨克拉门托国王队前助理运动防护师Crystal Lee已正式对球队及球员健康高级主管Jaspreet Randhawa提起诉讼，指控其存在怀孕歧视、性骚扰、打击报复及非法解雇等行为。

三 |

　　法庭文件显示，Lee于2022年至2025年期间担任国王队助理运动防护师。本月早些时候，她在加州高等法院提交的诉状中称，自己在怀孕期间及产后遭到了降职处理。Lee表示，产假结束后，球队不仅禁止她随队出征客场，最终甚至剥夺了她为球员提供治疗的资格。

四 | 她还指控，在向球队人力资源高级副总裁提出投诉后不到一个月，自己便遭到了解雇。

    　　诉状还提到，Randhawa在得知Lee怀孕时曾对她说“你彻底完了”，后来还说过“生了孩子你的人生就毁了”。Lee称，Randhawa在队内营造了一种“不全天候连轴转就是不敬业”的职场文化。

    　　2023年2月，当时Lee正处于孕中期，球队便停止让她参与客场比赛的工作。

五 | 同年4月，国王队将她从助理运动防护师降职为“健康与表现行政专员/助理运动防护师”，这是一个可远程办公的岗位。她声称，球队当时告知她这一变动是暂时的，下个赛季就能官复原职。

    　　然而，在2023-24赛季开始前，Lee休完产假回归球队一个月后，国王队又聘请了一名全职助理运动防护师。尽管她提出随队出征客场的要求，但仍被排除在客场名单之外。2024年9月，国王队再次将Lee降职，从她的头衔中移除了“助理运动防护师”字样，并禁止她履行相关职责。

    　　诉状还列举了Lee与现任球队主帅克里斯蒂在他担任助理教练期间发生的一些不愉快互动，不过克里斯蒂并未被列为被告。

    　　2025年4月，Lee与Randhawa以及国王队球员人事副总裁会面，表达了对自己“因生育而被排斥并被剥夺运动防护师职责”的担忧。诉状称，球队当时提议帮她在其他球队寻找工作。次月，Lee与国王队总经理斯科特·佩里会面，却被告知“球队不容忍抱怨者”。随后，她向球队人力资源副总裁正式提出投诉。
