(CNN Spanish) - The minimum wage in Venezuela increased again in October, as announced by the Government, and remained at 300,000 bolivars a month, about 16 dollars.
It is the third salary increase so far this year in the country, which faces monstrous inflation.
Venezuela has the lowest minimum wage in the region, and by far: the next lowest on the list is that of Nicaragua (for the agricultural sector) that amounts to $ 129 per month.
On the other side of the spectrum is Chile with the highest minimum wage in the region ($ 423), followed by Uruguay ($ 416) and Ecuador ($ 394).
