Good, let them raise their salary and let them price themselve out of the market. The best of the best and the talented among the talented will be isolated and will see how talent they are? the justification and the argument
would crack. The idea itself would lost the moral authority.

MamaRos SG

I don't know but I find it really hard to believe that President Bush is getting the amount of pay as stated. He gets to live in the White House for free right? He gets to travel for free right? There are lots of perks the President gets which none of us will know and that we will never know.

I have no say about our Ministers getting an increase in their salaries or about their 'high' pay. What I do appreciate is their being transparent about it. Of course they know the public will KPKB but there's nothing anyone can do about it.

So who is really more corrupted? Mr. Green CSJ who takes the 2 dollar stamp to help his wife send her thesis or our Ministers who give themselves 60% pay hike

kilua SG

Why never compared with Finland? They never had the transformation we had and other lame excuses?

sgquitter SG

r u sayin our ministers, esp PM/MM/SM levels, are not entitled to the so-called perks?

Don't bet on it , by the time ripple from center ( which is the minsters) by the time reach you -- no more ripple left !

storywolf SG

Well think the govt finally just pull the welcome mat from their own feet !!!

Because they should be pricing themselves agains other countries ministers and presidents !!! If they want to pegged again commerical that is wrong, they may as well pegged it against Bill Gate !!!

Singapore govt must understand that like outside company, which company does not want the best talent, but there must be match to the ability and willingness of the company to pay. If blindly going for best talent, will destory the company as no matter how well the company does, the salary already suck the company dry....

Well I think politicians all over the world should migrate to singapore and join the singapore government, as according to our bunch of Fat over paid minister, any minister receiving less than $1.2million dollars are at risk of corruption.

So bush and the united states govt are all earning less than $1.2million and are all at of risk corruption. U.S., a world superpower govern by corrupted people and that goes for the rest of the world govenment as well. Singaporeans we are alone.

gerrykoh SG

By right, we should not be afraid that there's is corruption- cos we have CPIB & citizens can act as whistleblowers as in the case of NKF.

First get them to declare assets before taking office.

Also limit the no. of terms they can serve eg US president cannot go more than 2 terms.

carrotsoup SG

Next ASEAN forum, stay tune to see our minister kana blanket party by the rest of the Asian minister.

kilua SG

you gotta be naive..

CPIB is under the prime Minister...

Whistle Blowers in NKF? and Get bankrupted or sue Like Archie One? The government refuses to pass a law to protect whistle blower.

ellisbeck SG

Trying to be objective here.

Let's look at this report from Washington. How credible can it be when it is from some people who did not even have the balls to reveal who he is?

While I do not believe Bushy is worth what he's paid for, neither do I believe he's paid less than he desires.

FireAndHell SG

no need to get foreign talent to become SG ministers.... If any of you chaps wanna b a millionhair, just join the PAP and put your best talents to serve SG. Man, you gonna be rich!!!!!!! Wink Most likely havta work 7/7, 24/7. hahahaha!!

mistyblue SG

I am a thief and I kept a dog. you think my dog is going to bite me if I steal? The dog only bites the owner I am stealing from....

But I am only talking about a friend and his dog... don't get me wrong...

googoomuck SG

What are you talking about? He's only kidding.
You don't really believe he meant it, do you?
He's mocking Singapore and her government, that includes you if you are Singaporean. It's embarrassing !

LazerLordz SG

Dude, it's sardonic humour. And he is laughing at us, and what irks me is that the PAP has made Singapore into a laughing stock once more.

Are there so little Singaporeans who can understand such nuanced language ah? Piang eh..

Rolling Eyes

mistyblue SG
