The Pay Trends Survey Committee met this afternoon (25th) to confirm its findings earlier published.
The net pay trend indicators for the low, middle and high-level civil servants ranged from 2.04% to 7.26%.
Ye Liu Shuyi, member of the Executive Council and chairman of the New Democracy Party, believes that it is acceptable for civil servants to follow the inflation rate, but a salary increase of more than 7% for senior civil servants is out of reality. If you live in a high-rise, you will get more bonuses.
Ye Liu Shuyi pointed out that the government considers civil servant salary adjustments every year. In addition to the net target, it will also consider factors such as socioeconomic conditions, government finances, civil servant morale, and inflation. It will not only follow the net target, nor has it been followed in the past two years.
She believes that the government will consider all factors before making a decision this year.
