During LKY's time, the very early early time, civil service jobs were a dead end....low pay, routine work, boring job, just follow SOP, don't act smart, cover backside, and you can work long long.

Most people joined the private sector thinking that it was a pot of gold.

Nobody expected Singapore to become 1st world in one generation, and along with that, the civil service turned out to be a better place to work in than the vast majority of private sector companies.  Those private sector MNCs which paid well and paid several months of bonuses, gave excellent fringe benefits, were few and far between.
