The beginning of the payment of the Auxílio Brasil of R$ 600, the gas voucher and the benefit to truck drivers, after the approval of the Benefits PEC, and the request for stability and reduction of uncertainties made by bankers to Bolsonaro during lunch at Febraban, are among the highlights of this Tuesday (9).
Aid of R$ 600, gas voucher and benefit to truck drivers start to be paid this Tuesday
THE Federal Savings Bank starts paying this Tuesday (9) the Brazil aid of R$ 600, the gas voucher and the benefit for truck drivers.
The changes were implemented after the approval of the Benefits PEC with expenditures estimated at R$ 41.25 billion outside the spending ceiling until the end of 2022.
Payments for the Aid Brazil and the gas ticket will be made on business days between August 9 and 22, following the order of the final digit of the Social Identification Number (NIS ).
Auxílio Brasil, currently at R$ 400, will reach R$ 600 until December this year. The gas voucher goes to R$ 110, corresponding to 100% of the value of the national average for cylinder of 13 kilos. Until now, the value of the benefit paid to low-income families was 50% of the price of the cylinder.
Febraban asks President Bolsonaro for stability and reduction of uncertainties
Bankers asked President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) for stability and reduction of uncertainties at the lunch held this Monday in the capital of São Paulo. The event, organized by the Brazilian Federation of Banks (Febraban), also helped the sector to counter accusations that it earns from high interest rates.
After Febraban’s formal support for the document in defense of democracy that will be read this week, the entity’s president, Isaac Sidney, made a speech in a mild and constructive tone to President Bolsonaro. According to reports by those present, the financial sector took advantage of the event to reaffirm the economic agenda, which defends stability and predictability.
“We do not want rules and regulations favorable to the sector. What we want is greater predictability with a horizon that mitigates uncertainties and increases confidence”, said the president of Febraban, according to a report by those present. At the event, Bolsonaro’s speech was broadcast on social media, but the president did not detail proposals or the economic agenda for a possible second term.
STF postpones trial of criminal actions against politicians and opens a gap for campaigns
While discussing the application of changes in the Administrative Improbity Law, which may, in the end, free a series of politicians and target public agents from lawsuits, the Federal Supreme Court (STF) has postponed, in recent months, the trial of criminal actions against some politicians.
In practice, with these postponements, the Supreme Court opened a gap for these politicians to maintain their campaigns for office in this year’s elections.
Federal deputies Silas Câmara (Republicans-AM) and Paulinho da Força (Solidariedade-SP), senator Fernando Collor (PTB-AL) and former deputy André Moura (União Brasil-SE) are on this list.
Issey Miyake, influential Japanese fashion designer, dies at 84
Issey Miyake, the Japanese fashion designer whose timeless pleated clothes made him an industry favorite, has died aged 84. He died of cancer on Aug. 5, his office confirmed to CNN this Tuesday (9).
A funeral has already been held with his family and close friends, his office said, adding that a memorial service will not be held, as per Miyake’s wishes.
Miyake rose to international prominence in the 1980s with avant-garde designs that those who could afford his luxury pieces immediately considered collector’s items.

He also found a lifetime customer at Steve Jobs who has worn his black turtleneck almost exclusively since the 1980s.
