The flaw lies in the lack of clarity about the specific wage increases implemented by companies. While the article states that over 80% of companies raised wages for low-income employees, it doesn't provide details on the magnitude of those increases. This leaves a crucial gap in understanding whether the increases were substantial enough to meaningfully improve the income of low-wage workers.
The article then highlights that only 27.6% of companies followed the NWC's wage guidelines. This suggests that a large proportion of companies may have raised wages at a lower rate than what the NWC recommends, potentially undermining the effectiveness of the guidelines.
Therefore, the flaw lies in the lack of information about the specific wage increases implemented by companies, making it impossible to determine whether the overall increase in wages for low-income employees is truly significant or merely a symbolic gesture.
To address this flaw, the article should have provided more details about the average wage increase implemented by companies and compared it to the NWC's recommendations. This would have provided a more complete picture of the situation and allowed for a more accurate assessment of the impact of wage increases on low-income employees.

Can MOM tell this country-
1. How many of the low wages are Citizens VS Foreigners?
2. How many of the low wages are above 50 years old?
