With all the data that was recently
gathered about corruption and “lifestyle checks”, a big question
might be in your mind that will make you wonder, “How much these public serving
officials actually make? Surely salary must be very amazing that many
people want to become one of the politicians, right?”
Well, not that really. According
to data, highest elected position in Philippines, President, has salary of Php120,000
a month. Might sound like lot, but when you figure CEOs of some companies
listed in Philippine Stock Exchange earn amazing millions per month, it is almost
negligible. Isn’t president basically CEO of country? President’s Php.120,000 does
not include taxes and deductions, so possibly his base monthly take—home salary
is less.
To give a better idea on how much
do a public officials earn per month, a table is created show the maximum gross
salary each position monthly based on salary grade, from the Sangguniang
Panlungsod (SP) members in a highly urbanized cities, to President of Philippines.

is really making per month?
