Frankly no ideal model and the needs shifts anyway in times and situations.
Would have to write an essay on it and still never be 'correct' since all are subject to the norms wants/needs of the times.
Very basic would be a roof over the head, food, peace and security.
Perhaps by extension :
1. More transparency
2. More chance and avenues of participation and feedback
3. Infrastructure
4. General rule of law
5. Peace
6. More concern for environment
My original point however is not to over credit government for the success of a country when even if not more credit is due for it people.
Its a business and never pretends to be something else.
Thats digressing from the point anyway.
Country's success can be due to the ppl and not overly credited to the government.

I think the 60% raise in 2007 should still be alright for the 35% pay cut in 2012?
Singapore announces 60 percent pay raise for ministers - The New York Times

when will i have 60% pay rise? 60% of $600 = $360, but 60% of some large sum is a big big figure!!! hmm so i should ask , when will i have such fat salary? when will others have such salary too?
tell me the number of times they got things right?
i feel a little sad for people working in public sector. when things are going all fine and well, when things are all gay, no one tells them they are doing a good job.
yet when problems occur, **** quite literally hits the fan for them.
hi allen,
i must tell u that at no point i am blaming the civil servants.. i never enjoy targeting those without heavy responsibility.
btw, do u also post at *** MP facebook when u see something not right, like u did to CSM?
i can guess which 3 letters.
and yes i do, provided i spot something amiss in my feed. george yeo too. i'm guessing most don't actually read and reply. the internet is not a good medium actually for a 1-1 convo.
yes, typing too much is tiring.. it is best they engage us in real life more.. and really listen and leave the NATO

We only ask one thing from the ministers and MPs:
有富同享,
有难同当.

The amount saved through this exercise on the revised Ministers' salaries (I estimate about 40% saved) should not be transferred from the left pocket to the right pocket of the gahmen.
This amount saved should be used instead as a NATIONAL BONUS and be distributed to all true local citizens (i.e no PRs).
