What is all the fuss about Sai Mizzi Liang’s salary?

Her annual salary of €75,000 (not including allowances) boils down to roughly €200 a day for a 24-hour service, which is equivalent to €8.33 per hour. What is exorbitant about this figure?

Even government fees for minor services are higher than this rate, as are fees by certain professionals.

Her nationality is said to have played a part in her appointment; what is wrong with that?

What is not right is the lack of transparency in her selection, which is much preached about but little practised by the government.
