PM Lee isn’t just the highest paid leader in the world, he has no close second. Carrie Lam (who is second) of Hong Kong receives $S642,173 per annum, less than 30% that of PM Lee. If PM Lee were to take a massive 70% pay cut, he would still earn more than her.
2. PM Lee makes more in a day than what 5 low-income families make in a month
All civil servants have a 5 day work week and compensation is structured around that schedule. Assuming PM Lee worked 5 days a week for all 52 weeks, his daily pay would amount to $8461 ($2,200,000/(52 x 5). An average low income family would only make $1500 a month.
3. PM Lee makes more than the top 0.1% of Singaporeans
The top 1% of income earners in Singapore make $700,000 a year. The top 0.1% make close to $1.8 million, still short of PM Lee’s grand figure of $2.2 million. PM Lee’s salary doesn’t just put him among the rich, but the super rich.

That is why, I do not trust LHL nor PAP at all. Just by looking at how they try so hard to justify their high pay with a group of wayang kings.
Other countries have a NEUTRAL Coalition Party to check on the salary, spending, discipline, reporting structure . . . but SG? NONE.
PAP always do what they like akin to a spoilt brat!
Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

Since they won the GE by a landslide every time, they are given the mandate to rule the nation...sometimes by heavy-handed means....

LHL and Singapore cabinet high pay has been barked on for a long time by the opposition....if it is a concern it would have been a big winner for the opposition long time ago.
In fact the lower paid politicians in other countries struggle to get support and votes because the low pay is rarely a clean wage....
I believe the more the opposition and its supporters whine about this issue ....the less votes they get.
Because it means there is so little real issue you need to pick on this one.
I do not like the PAP but do not begrudge the salaries they earn as by today's standards where ultra high income earners are so common in our society.....it is a non issue with Singaporeans.
I am not a fan of the PAP.
The opposition should be thankful for the high salaries paid to the ministers as it creates high expectations of their performance. This means there are more avenues to raise issue when problems are not solved well.
Those problems are the real issues and why people vote for the opposition...People rarely turn to opposition because of the high pay of PAP.

Their pay has been high when they win landslides.
The high pay is not an issue....every Singaporeans voter knows our politicians are well paid and most accept it.
There is little point repeating this tired thing that everyone already knows. It's like telling iPhone users that the iPhone is very expensive....they already know, but they still buy.

STRESS IS HOW TO FIND , PLAN to continue the "Lee Family control , owned SG "
LKY no stress since LHL willing to take over into politics " maybe is not the first choice, maybe LKY want the younger bro take over as PM but he not say interested that time as been a CEO in Singtel "
Now LHL , is Stress how to make his son take over as PM , path road for him just like what his dad LKY do before but this time is different because his sons don't even interest in Politics stuffs etc.

Pay pinkie how much is not a problem.. If he can bring in 10x times riches of his pay to average Singaporean, why not.. It is just like corporate world, your value is pegged to how much value you can bring to the company..
Is Pinkie bringing that amount of value to average Singaporean, it is for you and me to judge.
1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

PAP are over-paid to prevent corruption. For this, I'd rather replace 10 PAP with 10 member Coalition Party to check on them in the 5 areas.
PAP are over-paid not because they can perform well. For this, I'd rather have 10 capable PAP Ministers rather than 60 JLBs.
PAP are over-paid yet 80% of their policies and guides are copied from other countries. For this, I'd rather have 50 JLB Ministers just call themselves Secretaries.
They always over- brand themselves.
And Yes, I think you have hit the right point. Is their salary worth it from recipients of their servitude?
When I compare them to 10 other Developed Countries ie HK Japan, Australia, China . . . . To me, NO.
What they say do not match with what they do. 牛头 不对 马嘴 。
。
Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

They over-pay themselves, cannot perform yet Jac Lau calls them Winners.
PAP failed to articulate and speak well in all their Parliament sessions as compared to UK Parliament in the past 10 years, yet Jac Lau praise them for being as failures like him.
They cannot over- perform other 200 Ministers in the Developed Countries yet the Jac Lau says Winners Dine together. But he himself is not even in the group of diners.

when PAP performance deteriorate and singaporeans look around the region and elsewhere,
PAP obscene pay may become an issue!I already see the lowering in standards which is now
accelerating.

In short Pinky and his deputies are grossly overpaid when compare to their foreign counterparts......
