MY cut ministerial salaries by 10%,SG Ministers now stressed

After news of Malaysia’s newly-elected government announced a 10% ministerial salaries pay cut, Singapore Ministers are now under tremendous pressure from the public to trim off chunk off their million dollar paycheck. According to the Malaysian government, the move is an austerity measure to reduce burden on public expenditures, even though the savings may not be substantial.

The Malaysian Prime Minister draws about S$92,400 a year while a Minister draws about S$60,000 a year. The savings is estimated to be only S$110,000 a year.

............Singapore’s political salaries is a textbook case study of a legalised corruption, where a corrupted majority ruling party re-write legislation to give themselves a massive pay raise.
According to government propaganda, the million-dollar salaries is required to deter corruption and attract “political talents”. The policy however ended up with several military generals becoming Ministers, and system-wide incompetence. Singapore Ministers eventually become obsessed with the money, disinterested in governance and completely subservient to the Prime Minister.

Singapore ministers should take a leaf from Dr M.

If the country is facing deficits , the country leaders lead by example by cutting their pay as austerity measures but not by increasing GST to tax more on the common folks .

People have said this since 1965. Nothing has changed.

He has tons of conflict of interests between his WH and Trump empire.

Lots of other yankee politicians have been caught for dishonesty involving smaller sums, such as using public funds to pay for their upgraded airfares and holidays. You wouldn't have this problem if you paid them better in the first place.
