Of course government officials and staff members will have their salaries doubled if the Ministry of Human Resource and Social Security says so. But I think it's difficult for private companies to increase their workers' pay voluntarily.

If the government wants to fulfill this promise, it should implement specific policies and offer necessary help to private enterprises, so that they can increase their employees' salaries and thus help bridge the gap between the wealthy and the poor.
