Rotterdam Pays Immigrants to Meet Mayor


Moroccans in Rotterdam are being paid if they are willing to talk to Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb. The 100-150 participants in meetings receive up to 40 Euro for attendance at the meeting of up to two and half hours. They have the opportunity to tell the mayor about their experiences in the town. Earlier Antilleans received similar payments but, according to the municipality, these are normal reimbursements of expenses.
