HÜDA PAR leader Yapıcıoğlu also reacted to the new minimum wage.

The minimum wage for 2025, which millions have been eagerly awaiting, has been set at 22,104 TL with a 30% increase. While the new figure brings discussions along with it, many people expressed their reactions through their posts, stating that the amount is low.

One of these individuals is Zekeriya Yapıcıoğlu, the General Chairman of HÜDA PAR, a partner in the Cumhur Alliance. In his post, Yapıcıoğlu stated, "The poverty line is 67,000 TL, the minimum wage is 22,000 TL! Can one live on this money? No, this calculation is wrong."

Yapıcıoğlu's message is as follows;

For a family of four:

Hunger line (the amount that must be spent only on food): 21,000 ₺

Poverty line (the amount sufficient to meet all basic needs): 67,000 ₺

A single worker's monthly minimum needs: 27,000 ₺

Minimum wage: 22,000 ₺

Can one live on this money?

Rent increase rate: % 60.45

Revaluation rate: % 43.93

Annual inflation: % 47

Employer's minimum wage support increase rate: % 42.85

Minimum wage increase: % 30

No.

This calculation is wrong.
