Top 10 Well Paying Jobs in Singapore in 2013 (That You Might Be Able to Do)

[HitandRun]

I always wonder how true it is. Let's find out

I assume Lee Hsien Loong should be on par in capability with his younger brothers, Lee Hsien Yang. How much does Lee Hsien Yang paid?

IIRC, Lee Hsien Yang's ex-chairmanship of F&N paid S$1 million a year + S$250K chairman fee. It is already S$1.25 million. He also chairman of CAAS, probably another S$250K fee, so total S$1.5 million

Chairman of board is not a full-time job. Lee Hsien Yang's full time job is private investor with his accumulated wealth.

It should be easily concluded that Lee Hsien Yang paid better than Lee Hsien Loong. On top of that, Lee Hsien Yang seems has a much better life, no need to face voters, no need to seek successor, no need to find a better future for Singaporean which is a tough challenge. Lee Hsien Yang not even need to be a full-time employee.

So is PM job a better choice for Lee Hsien Loong in monetary sense? Hmm...

xis's statement that the PM has a tax free salary is not correct lah.

Anyway, I can think of 2 other persons with potentially more generous salaries and better quality of life.

1. S R Nathan. Should have collected around $30-$40 million over his ten year "appointment" period. Did not have to face any ballot, i.e. not much stress and a lot of sight-seeing and entertainment.

2. Kwa Chong Seng. He is the cousin of Kwa Geok Choo. I have no idea what his actual salary is. He is deputy chairman in Temasek Holdings, and is on the boards of Public Service Commission, DBS, NOL, ST Engineering, etc...
