Latka 1st Gear April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 There was a time when they stopped building 2 and 3 rm flats, saying that families are getting bigger, need at least 4 rm flat, hence concentrate on building so called bigger flats. Now, they start building 2 and 3 rm flats at newer estates to meet demand. Who dunno how to be minister like dat? Poor planning and no foresight. Just change decision can oready. YOG budget, everyone knows the minister dunno how to count other people's money, only his own. And yet he gets to keep his job. Worth paying top dollar? COE, end of last year, they came out of the closet to say they made a mistake in counting nbr of COEs released over past years, now have to cut supply and boomz goes COE prices. Qualified to be minister? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightWind 4th Gear April 6, 2011 Author Share April 6, 2011 Something is clearly wrong with the PAP system when you have over 90% of the public who are against million dollar ministerial salaries, and the local Press, Judiciary, Executive and all the so called independent arms of government ignore public opinion and allow the ministers to continue to pay themselves such rediculous amounts. This is because the corruption is now widespread and ingrained through out the system, and is a part of the system. This is a systemic failure. The only way to end this is for the masses to slowly realise that out of every dollar they earn, probably 50% comprise hidden taxes that go to support this corrupt system and indirectly pay for the rediculous salaries of the ministers. i also agree with you on this... really wishy washy speech... i think their spin doctors are off on holiday...

Curahee 1st Gear April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 (edited) Other ocuntry politician earn a lot thru lecture etc coz they got substance, they talk ppl willing to ppay them and listen and wanna learn more from them, over here, they know they cannot earn much by giving lecture (anyway who in this world wanna bother to read their bk and listen to their lecture?) hence muz up their own salary using public fund so that they can earn as much as other countries politician? What kind of logic is this. Edited April 6, 2011 by Curahee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightWind 4th Gear April 6, 2011 Author Share April 6, 2011 I think the "12" people u refer to may be one or two PAP moles with multiple user names.

Felipe 3rd Gear April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 Actually , I think having high salaries does not encourage corruption.. hence. . both side gain.. something is really wrong if we need to pay a political leader a lot to stay corrupt free. anyway, i've heard quite a few different reasons from the govt over a period of time why they should be paid high salaries. Strangely, the reasons are always changing. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
