According to the Ministry of Manpower, for workers aged 55 and above, 18,600 earn gross monthly income of under $500, 64,000 earn less than $1,000, and 46,400 earn below $1,500. This means that 42 per cent of elderly workers earn less than $1,000.

The only way I see is to cut the top executive pay by 40%. They are overpaid for the least responsibility job. Their pay cut can bring in more capital to lower wages worker and also have more good quality projects too. But... no top people will want to see their own pay cut... Got to wait for the serious global crisis that last many years in order to see this happen... lol..

teeth53 thot - How to reduce unhappiness around us ?. & is good to know PM is making an effort.
Why is it that it would appear that as one gets older, earnings tend to decline?
How long has this trend been persistent? www.leongszehian.com/cpf - 76k - Cached
I refer to the Prime Minister's National Day speech, in regards to reducing the income gap and CPF.
According to the Ministry of Manpower, for workers aged 55 and above, 18,600 earn gross monthly income of under $500, 64,000 earn less than $1,000, and 46,400 earn below $1,500. This means that 42 per cent of elderly workers earn less than $1,000.
The statistics indicate that the older one gets, the larger is the proportion who earn less. For example, those earning less than $500 and $1,000, jumped from 8,600 and 36,600 to 18,600 and 64,000, respectively, from age 50-54 to age 55 and above.
This means that those who crossed from age 50-54 to age 55 and above, who earned less than $500 and $1,000, increased by 116 and 75 per cent respectively.

I wonder the goverment realise those problems attached with Population growth by bringing new immigrant (worker class)? Littering (proven by flooding), Noise Polution (people talk loudly in the public and MRT stations and train with loud announcement), strangers sleeping and lotering at HDB void deck, conning, cheating, over crowded public traansport, more and serious traffic accident, lower salary (some Singapore still earning less than 1,000 a month).... Before bringing in these people, any plan to bring them to civic concious to Singapore standard? The ERP is a good system to use pricing mechanism so why not in employment market be the same? Is foreign worker really bringing down the cost of production? HDB flat is now selling S$ 700K under DBSS scheme?
The top few precent of earners ie the CEOs, bankers, ministers etc skew the amt upwards. Maybe they can pay themselves more to achieve 3100 earlier. haha...

New Australian PM Gillard BUSTED the MYTH that population growth is the panacea to National Growth.
Population is no no to National Prosperity UNLESS everyone of the lower 50% percentile population has increasing annual income over and above the annual inflation rate plus the bank prime rate.
Otherwise, population growth is equal to citizen poverty growth.
DON'T be SWEPT OFF by the average Per Capital Income.
Increasing average PCI is nOt equal to Growth in individual citizen's person annual income.
All average Statitics are SCAM because the figures are nOt suppOrted by TRUTH in the LIFE of the citizens.

Even GLCs are cutting older workers’ pay?
Singapore Airlines (SIA), SIAEC (SIA Engineering) and all other SIA-affiliated companies practise 10 per cent across-the-board pay cut for all employees the moment they turn 60 years old,” Ms Jennifer Tan wrote to the Straits Times in May this year.
“When queries are made to the human resource department about such cuts,” Ms Tan wrote, “especially in relation to the new government push to extend the working life of experienced older workers, the reply given is that it is ‘company policy’.” (Asia One)

and now....
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/1067260/1/.html
SINGAPORE: Raising the wages of the average Singapore worker by one-third in the next decade is one target of the Economic Strategies Committee (ESC). This would mean moving from a median wage of $2,400 today to about $3,100 in 10 years.
"Grow productivity, grow wages and grow profits. That's what it really boils down to. "The opportunities are large, the challenge of achieving growth with a limited labour supply is also daunting but we can raise our game and make the most of these opportunities for next 5-10 years."
One way is to adopt the three "R" strategy - Repositioning businesses, Restructuring processes and taking Responsibility for the quality of workers. Singapore has never had it as good as now, and for the next five to ten years.
Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam said Singapore must have workers with top quality skills and make the island one of the top liveable cities in the world. Mr Tharman went on to say: "What we really have to do when we talk about raising productivity is raise our game in every regard - higher skills, higher standards, higher aspirations, transform our economy in every sector so that we can take advantage of these opportunities.
Teeth53 thot - This one is always love by economist From a median wage of $2,400 today to about $3,100 in 10 years. Projecting a very promising target all across all workers.
We will have many managers and no workers...Right - RIGHT 
Is Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam was saying to every Singaporean low wage workers, including FT ??. or to those few who can made it ??. Tell that to a 40 - 50 years old by then most will reach retiring age, where blue/white collar workers and their CPF will get cut and becoming alot more expensive to be employ, believe many of them may get either jobless, alot less in salary then they can command.

She could be right and wrong in some sense! It all depends from country to country to justify this mentioned MYTH.
