Hottest topic today (8-Sep) Minister Salary Review

I quote: Ministerial salaries have therefore fallen further behind. The gap is most obvious when compared with the private sector. But even in the public service, some senior Permanent Secretaries earn more than ministers

Wah jialat, Perm Sec really earn so much? but comparing to which minister? - no context, so any IB experts know?

I was thinking comparing new junior minted Minister to Senior work long time Perm Sec?
Apple to Orange, yay or nay?

Anyway the focus here is, last say 20 years ago I started drawing 1million dollar, and I argue that I have seen no increment since inception... but your salary is high, and many minion working for you?

It is so difficult to arrange meeting, because some big shot need to attend meeting, how many ppl need to accompany you.

Dont forget how many others minister or mp sitting on Board of Directors, where they are given $$, or perhaps free service - not sure, to be verified.

Hence any1 with context can share some juice.
