@mothershipsg: The government has accepted the recommendations by an independent committee to adjust political salaries. The proposed adjustments will not be immediately implemented in one step. While Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said he will be donating the full increase in his salary for the next five years, he said that does not expect other officeholders to do the same. #mothershipparliament #fyp #singapore

Politics is not about how much u earn and it is all about sacrificing and u want to come and give these people you love with ur talent. if only money can decides that all this politicians here are just a drama. i still believed there are good people who want to serve the nation without expecting much

南洋老王 :

at least he donate out the increment. did the previous 2 leaders show such example before? don't tell me they had did it quietly, becos that cannot show a good example to all other leaders who want to follow. so, well done PM Wong, Sir!

Greatest Motto :

Great leaders take care of the welfare, safety and needs of their people. Some politicians focus on protecting their own super-paid salaries (Iron-Rice-Bowls) instead. Their low salaries should be a priority and means test to determine their willingness and prudent-responsibility to truly serve their countries. Should NEVER be too much ABOVE those in Developed-countries. It also helps prevent conflicts of interest for personal gain, such as property purchases. “Public anger is like volcanic ash or a glacier slide… wise leadership manages the pressure early; once the mass starts moving, trying to stop it can be far harder than preventing the slide.” e.g. protests/riots in Indonesia, Nepal, Philippines, India & Spain

Ministers pay should be reviewed and I support their increment. Singapore Ministers job is one of the most stress. More than that, the country also need to compete with corporate organisations to hire the best SG talent for the role.

WPCanChangeSG :

While many ministers claim to be of a humble origin, their path to the cabinet, more often than not, runs straight through the road of elitism – elite school, elite scholarship, then elite training ground for a career as a political elite.

KB :

donate your salary doesn't justify the increment for the rest. it should be based on performance. are they really doing a super good job that justify such huge adjustment

EC :

It's a duty, not a transaction

AceBomber :

Really meh? The entire cabinet same same?

Alex :
