Ministers Set For Pay Cut
-
just wonder if any of the PAP ministers ever think of how the ordinary singaporeans struggle to make ends meet. None deserves the pay they are drawing.

$1.54 million is so pathetic, should pay our Minister $4 million so that they won't succumb to corruption and they can be more capable in their job.
I think everybody needs to pay their worker more so that they can be better in their job.
And I wonder when will the day come where the top students should get a 20% headstart in exams just so that they wouldn't cheat... -

ha ha ha ha. -
essentially i do the same work as they do. send some emails, try to feel important although ppl will always put you down and bastard you... but i get only $920 (NSF).
where to get the money to learn exotic cuisine overseas?
they should give themselves a pay rise, in line with the petrol companies' move to raise prices while oil prices dip. after all, "in tough times, they need to keep their TOP talent", mah.
dip into reserves to pay themselves la.

they are only talented to think of ways to earn money out of us. -
In every car, there are 3 passengers and 1 driver. Most of them are passengers. Why not cut away 75% of them?

You forgot about golf sessions to entertain other Ministers, civil servants and foreign dignitaries.
It's a life threatening sport, imagine while out on the greens and you get hit on the head by a golf ball.
I wonder why nobody mentioned that Goh had master tailors from Ermenegildo Zegna specially flown in from Italy to custom make his suits. I wonder if that's a perk that comes from office. I betcha any unpronounceable Italian sounding brand is going to be expensive.
This is new, never heard before. Any links?

With the announcement published in 2007 that the ‘Singapore’s government ministers to get pay raise of more than 60 percent by 2008’ - even a 20 percent deduction will leave the ministers with 40 percent in their pocket.
As matters stand, the 60 percent increase was to be made in two parts, with the second part being held back until end-2008, which in any case will see that the ministers have already received 30 percent for at least all of the 12 months in 2008.
This deduction of 20 percent will still leave the ministers a 10 percent net raise when most ‘Singaporean wages may stay stagnant or see a 1% decrease - instead of the proposed 4 percent wage increase’ towards the end of 2008.
So much for the talents recruited with the huge salaries pegged to the 10 top highest paid executive posts in Singapore.
