Year end bonus for civil service

[loming]

Think 13th + 1 mth

I think will be 0.5 months (excluding AWS), given how the covid situation is still bad. GDP growth is good this year, but it comes from the low base of last year.

Civil servant here.

No but they will get some claps

I do hold out some hope that it will be more than 0.5. Since the messaging is for private companies to restore the wage cut they made for the last 2 years, Gov may take the lead and give a healthy bonus. 6-7% GDP is too high a growth rate to give just 0.5mth.

Seems like bonus will remain poor for years to come. Govt lack the foresight and will to reopen the economy and lift restrictions. Stuck in perpetual lobo for 18 months and things have gotten worse as time goes on.

Keep the guesses coming!

Our bonus is linked to GDP. It has nothing to do with politics.

Lack foresight? We have strategically placed our energy and resources in many key areas. Big picture-wise, Singapore is positioned to make a lot of money as the world comes out of Covid. It is clear you are not a civil servant. Don't be distracted by small irrelevant details like dining numbers. Big picture economic chess moves, Singapore has done well.

I'm a civil servant and in terms of big picture economic chess moves, SG has done poorly. Don't be misled by the "neither here nor there" approach, neither here nor there only leads nowhere.
