I think we average around 3 - 5 ministers per ministry right?

40% of parliament MPs are ministers (or similar positions).

Sun Xueling is at MHA (4 ministers), and MSF (3 ministers, 1 SPS).
Janil P is at MDDI (4 ministers) and MOH (4 ministers).
GKY is DPM (1 other DPM), and at MTI (5 ministers).

Maybe they should reform it and then either 1 minister, drawing 1 salary, running 1 ministry. OR, hire as many person as you want and call them all ministers but they all split that same 1 salary per ministry.

No point of the 2011 white paper (with all the ministerials salaries' review by Gerald Ee, etc.) If they can just keep inflating headcount and add onto the expenditure.

The one in 2023 got deferred.

Anyway the rank-and-files working at Civil Service earn so little and OT alot due to the red-tape/bureaucracy, etc. while the top management get paid so much.

No wonder you see so many people working in the civil service quitting.

Hear that even in the SAF a lot of regulars are quitting in past 5 years due to lack of pay increases.

Then the remaining work get shared amongst those remaining which again lead to more regulars quitting.
The lack of NS-eligible males due to our dwindling population pays a big part too.

This vicious cycle continues, whilst those generals continue to draw high salaries while waiting for the chances to parachute as a PAP MP or inside a GLC.
They created senior minister, 2nd minister n then a whole bunch of ministers of state.

Dunno for wat. N they all cost us. Not withstanding all d other posts they hold outside of gov posts.

Too many jiak liao bees.

Remove some Ministers, remove mayor's and some MPs

People must work harder to justify their salaries

Traitors. PAP's influx of foreigners coming to steal Sinkies jobs.
Don't be ungrateful to the opposition parties who have spoken up for Singaporeans, esp. leong Mun wai, Hazel Poa.
