Why does Singapore pay its PM so much? Lawrence Wong's salary explained
Decode With Sudhir Chaudhary: Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong is set to receive a 64% salary increase, taking his annual pay to around ₹27 crore. Singapore uses the earnings of its highest-paid citizens as a benchmark for determining political salaries, followed by a 40% reduction. The government argues that higher salaries can help reduce corruption and attract capable people to politics. The increased salary will not be given immediately, with future increments linked to performance, responsibilities and workload. However, the salary hike has also faced opposition, with critics arguing that Singaporean ministers already earn among the highest political salaries in the world.
Decode With Sudhir Chaudhary: सिंगापुर के प्रधानमंत्री Lawrence Wong की Salary में 64% की बड़ी बढ़ोतरी हुई है और अब उन्हें हर साल करीब 27 करोड़ रुपये मिलेंगे। सिंगापुर में नेताओं की Salary तय करने के लिए देश के सबसे ज्यादा कमाने वाले लोगों की Income को आधार बनाया जाता है, जिसके बाद 40% की कटौती की जाती है। सरकार का तर्क है कि अच्छी Salary से भ्रष्टाचार को रोकने और काबिल लोगों को राजनीति में लाने में मदद मिल सकती है। प्रधानमंत्री और मंत्रियों की बढ़ी Salary तुरंत लागू नहीं होगी, बल्कि Increment काम, जिम्मेदारी और Performance के आधार पर होगा। लेकिन 15 साल बाद हुई इस Salary वृद्धि का सिंगापुर में विरोध भी हो रहा है।
