Sources say the talks in Lilongwe were highly charged.

However, sources say both the government and TUM officials have struck an agreement.

The agreement is expected to be signed today over the ongoing stay away by teachers in public schools.

Sources said that the two parties have agreed to sign an agreement that will bring an end to the industrial action.

Our sources have also indicated that TUM confirmed and committed to sign the agreed deal this morning.

However, our sources have said the meeting was highly charged  as both sides presented arguments and counter arguments  on the provision of risk allowances.

The two sides have settled for what is being referred to as a  win- win deal.

Another crap. Do your research seriously. Contributions TUM gets are way low than the annual contributions made by the other professions, even after the total monthly deductions for the whole year. All the other small things you have said simply need common sense, no need of anyone explaining to you (akhoza kungotayapo nthawi, like I am doing if you cannot think them out yourself)

Another crap. TUM is not a professional body. It is a teachers mouth piece (represantative body) a baby of National union of trade. They only collect 1% of a person’s basic salary. We can say Teachers have no Professional body unless O dont know it.
