i wonder how much the top 1000 bosses in singapore earns...

i think should benchmark only top 21-1000 (as well as the bottom 20%).... the top 1-20 will never consider going into politics, so the exclusion makes sense.

This is like increasing the tag price by 50% just before sales amd then give a 30% discount during sales [thumbsdown]

As advised by sgp's premium retailer sawPHAIKhwa?? [:p]

The GOV should disclose the full benefits for president, PM and cabinet ministers. Pay is only portion of the factor.

Such as pension benefits, transport allowance, service allowance & others etc for president, PM and ministers must be disclosed. Additonal benefits after they step down from the position. Probably, benefits after death too for the family members.

Do they subject to taxation?

This one I agree. Already at the perm sec level, there is a lexus or equivalent class car with driver permanantly attached, plus their working lunches all paid for by their ministry. At minister level, there is at least a larger sized car and 2 or more body guards provided. The car itself(3 litre and above), factor in car cost, maintainence, erp, road tax, parking stc, already easily 3-4k sgd/mth. Then their lunches, esp when they host foreign guests, all at expensive hotels and restaurants, all paid for by their own ministry budget. Granted all these does not add up to much per yr compared to their million dollar salaries, but it is another component of the perks attached to their jobs that is not disclosed to the public. Yes all CEOs probably have their own drivers and lunches paid for by their company account, but these are private companies accountable to their own shareholders only, whereas the ministers' pay and perks all paid for by public monies. They already draw a salary that is out of this world, why should they get more perks from the state's coffers?
