Saw a piece of good news on Saturday newspaper 25 November 2006 "Civil service salaries likely to go up. Pay must be kept competitive to get and keep talent, say Teo Chee Hean"
How nice...
What a coincidence... Just when they have announced that they are increasing GST to 7% next year to help the poor. Hmm... makes me wonder who are we helping actually? What is the definition of poor? Is our civil servants, which include ministers, lowly paid?
Well, civil service pay has to go up because of private sector competition mah... And yes, Mr Teo also mentioned that ministers's salaries, which are also pegged to the private sector would be adjusted. He said:" The formula is a well-established one, we will have to look at the benchmark to see where they are, see what kind of adjustment we need to make... "
Aiya... Like that they lugi... if they benchmark with their peers in other countries, must take pay cut you know... what?! No?! you mean they do different benchmarking? Oh I see... Tsk Tsk... I smell some fishy smell...
