The salary is actually transparent across all 3 clusters in public. Obviously u are very junior and never get hired across clusters. Still with MOHH ah? when u move between cluster, your new HR will talk to your current HR to find out your salary and not offer u anything higher.
Gone are the days with 5 cluster that you can job hop around and get a 15-20% pay bump.

OP here, yup still with mohh. I think majority of pple in this forum are still junior doctors with mohh, who are concerned Abt their career progress or Remuneration (be it gp land, rp, AC opportunities once residency is completed etc). Ultimately, I think it's only fair and reasonable for us to know given our efforts in our ho/mo/reg years. These things are not very transparent at present. (At least not made known to the junior doctors - ho/mo; reg I not sure)
In fact I actually even think that these info (esp pay progression, job scope, challenges faced for public doctors) should be made to the public, so that parents/jc students applying for medicine would have a guage of their career opportunities/potential Remuneration and compare it to other fields (e.g law/CS/finance etc) before they make a decision on their future.
I have seen many medical students/junior doctors regret doing medicine, due to the suboptimal Remuneration among other reasons as well. It's difficult to blame them as how many 18 years old (when they chose medicine) actually truly know what they want? And they are now stuck with a hefty bond with mohh which they signed at 18-19 years old.
I thought this article is a good read and highlights the practical situation of being a doctor nowadays but I really wonder how many jc students when choosing medicine are aware of this..(link below)
