Can’t afford to match the competition but can afford the world’s most expensive cabinet
DPM Lawrence Wong recently admitted Singapore cannot outbid the “big boys” for investments, emphasizing the need for ingenuity and innovation. However, with the world’s most expensive cabinet, one would expect Singapore to outperform the competition.
Instead, Singaporeans see misplaced priorities such as raising GST amid high inflation and reviewing sky-high political salaries.
Low argues that It’s time for these highly-paid leaders to focus on the right challenges.
