in office, we were just saying other countries if the leaders
made a mistake, they have to resign... in sg, just say it's an
honest mistake can liao.... it doesn't matter if u lose billions of
dollars of the public, esp when u sleeping beside the Ls....
the powers-that-be keep harping about matching the local
payscale to international standards .... about how some of the
ministers could be earning a lot more outside .....
thing is .... with astronomical salaries comes heavy
responsibilities too ... you screw up, you lose billions, you'd be
tossed out by the board or the shareholders .....
but no .... it's great in Singapore, if you're part of the
"elect" ... you can have your pie and eat it too ... you get both
the huge salaries and none of the blame if something screws up ...
lost a terrorist ? ... nevermind, don't even have to apologise ...
lost a few billion ? ... nevermind, you're an independent entity
.... and your job is secure, cos it's one of the few jobs in
singapore that doesn't welcome ang moh foreign talents ...
