Pay Cut for Prime Minister and Ministers, But Note the Make-Up Pay

[Confuseous]

This means that if someone of Ng Eng Hen’s calibre comes along, gets voted in (possibly as member of a GRC) and appointed by PM as a new minister, he can continue to earn close to his last-drawn salary for about 5 to 6 years in his first term in political office. Ng Eng Hen once said he earned 5 times more in the private sector (Channelnewsasia, 9 September 2003).

Someone ought to tell NEH that if pay is so important to him, he shd stay as a surgeon. Why join politics and beg Singaporeans to vote for him when money still run his life? He is not ready to be a national leader

Will there be a by-election if a Minister quits a GRC? Being the anchor...
