4100 I have no issue with the Prime Minister and Ministers earning that much. But the issue is the President don't seem to do a lot of work. If most people were that capable, I think most will choose to be a President in Singapore. |

2642 to yawn: so what do u expect? total income earned in the country divided by the country's population? the world is not equal but it is fair in the sense of the ministers earning that much. |

681 Quoted from http://www.yawningbread.org/arch_2007/yax-824.htm : "351 people earn S$228 million. That's an average of S$650,000 each. Meanwhile, 64,000 people earn S$4.7 billion minus S$228 million. That's an average of S$70,000 each, about a tenth of the average for the top 351 people." |

662 Masindi, GLC is short for government-linked company, while MNC means multi-national corporation. To answer your question, no, GLC is not equivalent to MNC. But I can think of one GLC that can arguably qualify to be also called an MNC - Singtel. |
