PoliticsHow are the new salary benchmarks and bonuses for political office holders calculated?
Coordinating Minister for Public Services Chan Chun Sing said the salary adjustments will give the government more flexibility to attract people from diverse backgrounds into political service and allow the prime minister more room to differentiate ministers’ pay. Ministerial salaries comprise 65% fixed pay and 35% variable pay tied to individual performance and national outcomes.
