Or can I say that benchmark will kill off any corruption. I mean salary will be maintain within the range and not over the mark. That will deem corruption??
If someone wants to be the CEO of a company and receive $5 million per annum, he will ask for or bargain for such salary before he is appointed. In such a case, it is called market value or paying someone's worth based on his talent or ability or proven track record.
If a private sector CEO or any one accepts an appointment and ask for a smaller salary in order to secure the job and later tell his board of directors or business bosses or shareholders he is a talent and should be retained with higher salary will he get such increases as an afterthought?
The illogic of our ministers bargaining for the highest salaries after appointment or election is like asking for a blank cheque to be filled with any amount one likes.
Of course anyone in such a position will justify the asking by whatever means to get the highest.
The worse is if some one with highest education were to keep quiet about intention to get more salaries before election or appointment and after appointment or election then use their power to pass laws and get the highest salaries they could put up for their own peers to approve them.
Is this kind of system of getting salaries in this manner as an afterthought corruption or able to prevent corruption?
