  SINGAPORE, April 13 (Reuters) - A controversial pay hike for Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong will see his annual salary rise to about five times that of U.S. President George Bush and six times that of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
  Salaries for Singapore ministers and top civil servants, already among the best-paid in the world, were raised by about 60 percent to an average of US$1.26 million.
  
  Here is a snapshot of the 2007 annualised salaries of some of the prime ministers and presidents in Asia and beyond.
