      <title>PUZZLE #1 :   Who earned more after exit public sector ? replied by reddressman @ Fri, 21 Dec 2007 23:05:05 +0800</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;yes, agree. Based on my humble knowledge,&lt;br /&gt;
I do not know of anyone in this forum who knows of such person
exist past and present that they share this info in this
forum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This puzzle will be like the puzzle # 2 to go down in 2007 as
questions not fully and clearly without any doubt whatsoever
answered, i suspect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rest assured, the Reddressman will, for the sake of the PEOPLE,
persist to question what needs to be questioned. This is called
free public service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;div class="quote_body"&gt;No one in sg has a clue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the truth you cannot deny.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A secondary question is how many of our current batch of
ministers have really earned 1-3 million dollars pa before they
became ministers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More likely than not all before they became ministers they were
only earning much less than S$300,000.00 pa and after paying income
tax they probably got much less. So by becoming ministers they
became rich. Even assuming they stay back in the private sector it
is only the exception that anyone of them will ever get such
salaries as a million dollar unless they have become successful
entrepreneurs like Sim Wong Hoo or Simon Cheong. Therefore it is
not true that we the people have to pay million dollars to attract
people like Goh Chok Tong, Wong Kang Seng, Jayakumar, or Lim Boon
Heng to attract such persons to join politics. Why is MM Lee doing
this then? It is very simple, he has to pay them high in order to
control them or else he could not get their obedience to carry out
all this wishes to serve his own narrow agenda.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Any salaries like $300,000.00 pa could easily attract many good and
committed people. It is only when the top leaders are broad-minded
and prepared to respect talents and independent of thought and
teamwork that he can attract talent not salaries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If the fact is all or nearly all the current ministers did not get
any pays higher than $300,000.00 pa before they were invited to
join politics there is no justification to pay ministers million
dollars to attract them to do so.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is all an issue of leadership quality of the PM or the supreme
leader in charge not the amount of salaries which will attract true
passionate people to take up the challenge of joining
politics.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is proven that MM Lee's assumption about the need to pay
ministers more to attract them to join politics is unsubstantiated
and totally baseless.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Okay, PUZZLE #1 is about to come to a final conclusion and an
end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So far, there is surprisingly no one in this forum knows who earned
more after exit public sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I may have to call in the national guards to help me find the
answer. too tough for the forummers . They have no clues.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Looks like there are many unanswerable or unanswered questions
possible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please wait for my 2nd Puzzle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hope at least that someone here can answer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But I doubt....&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I think this concludes that no one in this forum has the answer
?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can only wonder is this a puzzle that has stretched the forumers
mental capacity? &lt;img title="Rolling Eyes" src=

&lt;br /&gt;
Who in this forum, ermm... should say who in this galaxi is capable
of&lt;br /&gt;
answering this simple puzzle?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lets see if this question can never be answered by any talent, no
matter how talent he thinks he is . (some people overrated
themselves unknowingly, totally oblivious) &lt;img title="Mr. Green"

&lt;strong&gt;Hello,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the 1st of a series of puzzles I am preparing to post here
in SGForums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hope you can help give some answers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
your answer should consider the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. this TALENT must not depend on party connections, inheritance,
relatives to achieve earnings more than what he earned when he was
in the 'white circle'.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. this TALENT must not be working in Public sector nor in GLCs nor
quasi-gubberment firms, after he exited the 'white circle'.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. this TALENT must have drawn ar least $150K a month of salary
(basic) before he went on his own into the Private Sector.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[b]Are you CAPABLE&lt;/strong&gt; of answering this simple puzzle?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;I heard that if money
many many not paid to Talents,&lt;br /&gt;
they can easily earn more elsewhere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, it should not take long to nail this puzzle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lets just see, who can come up the 1st correct answer!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
