KABUL (Reuters) - Afghanistan will delay paying salaries to hundreds of thousands of civil servants next month because it does not have enough money, a finance ministry official said Saturday.
The government treasury now holds less than the 6.5 billion Afghanis (71.41 million pound) needed to begin processing monthly salaries, said Alhaj Mohammad Aqa, director-general of treasury in the ministry.
He would not say exactly how much money the government had in its coffers, only that it was not enough to meet the payroll.
