After all, the PAP set their own pay for the positions of MPs and Minister. In fact, its passed by law and approved by the President. It basically says that all MPs MUST earn at least $17K a month. Not maybe, or possible or what not. But must minimally earn this. Also entry level Minister minumum pay is also passed by Parliament as law, and is set at $1.1 million. This is the minimum that a Minister can get paid, it cannot be less then this amount, and it can go much higher with bonuses and other pays. Make no mistake about it. It is a minimum wage in name, in law, and in function.
So, the question is why the PAP can legislate a minimum salary for themselves but cannot do the same for the rank and file sinkie worker? why will they not say the minimum wage is $5 an hour for unskilled and $10 and hour for skilled sinkie employees? I guess 70% sinkies are too stupid to see the double standard set by the PAP.
