Commentary: Singapore risks mediocrity at the top if too few high-calibre people join politics

It is a triple whammy.

Is paying higher pay the truth?

Mr. Lee understood that attracting people to politics would become more difficult, and he thought paying officials more might make some decisions easier.

In a highly contentious walk, he then introduced the ministerial pay method, which pegs pay scales for the highest workers in six different private field professions in 1994.

Since then, the government has become a popular political topic, and it was forced to change the formula in 2012, with lower wages for all, including the President and Prime Minister.

There has n’t been a revision in the last 12 years because of the delayed increases in ministerial salaries required by the revised formula.

Given the public mood, it does n’t seem likely there is much room to move on the pay front.

Fresh Tale NEEDED

What next?

Mr. Lee’s strategy worked during his day because he was a powerful and inspiring number who could draw people to his company.

They backed the assertion that a fragile Singapore needed the best help or it would suffer.

He and his team were so powerful, they made the tale incomplete.

A prone Singapore? It might still be, given that it is still a very little land dependent on the outside world, but the citizens, including leaders, no longer hold on to the plan as clearly. &nbsp,

Given that it is one of the richest nations in the world and first in this and that, according to the ratings that are frequently covered in the media, how resilient can it be?
