Philippine President's Salary

A Philippine president’s monthly salary is a measly P60,000, considering his great responsibilities, and the hazard of the job, especially the threat to his life by the bad elements.

Isn’t this a form of injustice? This reminds me of churchmate who served our parish for quite sometime from the time he was a young boy. He served until his late 20’s, and at that time he was already getting P60,000 per month from a multinational company as an IT.
Yes, he has tech skills, but there is no threat to his life.

A relative who works in a foreign country, a mechanical engineer, gets P300,00 a month, five times more than what our president gets.

Is the salary scale of the government employees being reviewed annually. Of course, increases will be determined by the inflation in the country and the effectivity of the
B.I. R. to collect taxes, and corruption is not rampart. “Sabi nga ni Pnoy, walang mahirap kung walang corrupt.” (If there is no corruption, there is no poverty.)
Something is wrong here. Officials of MWSS, and NAPOCOR and other government utilities are receiving much, much more than the president of the country!
