Comments

  1. Mia: finally some context on his supposed "modest" lifestyle. I still don't get how a 1.5 million euro salary is considered modest when so many Singaporeans struggle to
  2. Vanta Jackal: 1.5 million euros already? It's staggering, but what I'd really like to know is how he's using his time on a salary that high - isn't the
  3. Isla: know this isn't the conversation we should be having while people are struggling to make ends meet, but can someone explain how Wong's salary even justifies an increase?
  4. Obsidian Reaper: how can he justify the raise when there's still inequality in the city?
  5. Elliscleo: how's that working out for the average Singaporean?
  6. Ghost Signal: still surprised by how low the Singaporean people's expectations are, considering their government's economic stability
  7. Velvet Corvid: that's what i'd call a pretty solid salary, but also a very convenient time to remind the public that he deserves more
  8. Yara: sounds like the 'public servant' label is just for show
  9. Rubycosta: that's some pretty cringeworthy justification from Wong there
  10. Shadow Rune: this is still super problematic even with the raise - when do they start actually addressing the income inequality?
  11. Noah: seems like everyone's getting a pay raise except the average joe
  12. Wraith Ronin: still haven't seen a decent explanation for how their GDP-per-capita justifies these salaries, don't buy the 'Singapore's doing great' rhetoric
  13. Norar: Wong's defense of his pay raise seems to gloss over some pretty basic math on cost-of-living adjustments
