Pays of CEOs

Hi Mr. Tan,


Here's an article from BusinessWeek that you might be interested in:

It speaks about the salary disparity between CEOs in Japan vs. other developed countries.

Hi Mr. Tan,

What is weird about this statistic is that Japan is known to have relatively high entry and mid-level salaries. If they have a much lower high-end salaries, it means that the ratio of lowest-to-highest salary will be very low. Of course, there are many other factors to consider (low supply of manpower, high cost of living, etc.) but they apply both ways.
