Politicians' salaries
Leaders of the fee world
How much a country's leader is paid compared to GDP per person 
Jul 5th 2010 

ON MONDAY July 5th Raila Odinga, Kenya's prime minister, rejected the pay 
increase he was awarded by the country's parliament last week. MPs had granted 
Mr Odinga a rise to nearly $430,000 a year, while giving themselves a 25% 
increase to $161,000. This boost would place Mr Odinga among the highest-paid 
political leaders in the world. More worryingly, his salary would be some 240 
times greater than the country's GDP per person (measured on a purchasing-power 
parity basis). Lee Hsien Loong, the prime minister of Singapore, tops our list 
of selected leaders' salaries. He is paid more than 40 times the city-state's 
GDP per person. At the other end of the scale, Manmohan Singh, the prime 
minister of India, reaffirms his reputation for saintliness by taking a modest 
sum from Indian taxpayers.






Correction: We originally understated the salary of the prime minister of 
Canada. This was revised on July 6th 2010.
