If annum package is 550k as stated then I think it is Low. Should be pay cut from minister level.

I did not check.

PM nominated TCJ for speaker of Parliament position, does it got anything to do with the newspaper report today on Charles Chong who had stood against the govt twice.

My guess is for the Next GE, charles chong either bye bye to retire or being parachuted by his towkay to challenge an opp ward.
