The question : "What is a fair salary for the President?"
Same question rephrased : "Is President Nathan worth his pay?"
TCB : "But I read President Nathan's report and I think he has done a lot of things." "Apart from the ceremonial, the custodial role and so on, I think it's a lot of work that is being done. Therefore I think before (making salary) cuts, let's study the subject properly."
TT: "We should wait until we get the decision and whoever is President, will I'm sure abide by the recommendation and decision of the committee as determined by the government."
TKL: "I want to assure the people of Singapore, if I am the President, there's a lot of things to do, and even so I want to donate at least half."
TJS: "So I would benchmark against a public officer, if not a minimum salary."
A picture tells a thousand words. How to interpret this picture in wanpao to understand the official stand on the EP candidates? Only TCB does not wear a suit (most humble?). TT is happily standing behind TCB and blocking out TJS. TJS looks the smallest like being squeezed out and he also stands differently from the others. TKL is standing last and does not wear a tie (most informal?).
