Salary and benefits are not just to give civil servants some guarantees for their daily lives, but also involve their dignity: "Civil servants are representing the government when they do something; if their salary is too low, and the house they have is not a fit house, and the clothes they wear and things they eat are low class, how can they get respect?"
「公務員辦事時是代表政府，假如他們的待遇太低，住的房子不像房子，穿的衣服、吃的東西都低人一等，怎麼會有尊嚴呢？」
