Of minimum wage, income inequality and salary ratios


I WAS looking through some of my old Google Docs on the subject of new hires. In the document, we were looking at paying a fresh grad for an entry-level position about RM2,000.

This was from about 2007. In the 15 years since, it turns out that RM2,000 for a fresh grad in an entry-level position is still fairly common.
