Amid growing public anger over housing costs and spiralling income inequality, Singapore's prime minster, Lee Hsien Loong, has agreed to take a 36% pay cut – but he will remain the world's best-paid leader.

Lee appointed the committee after a disastrous parliamentary election in which his party faced historic losses. The committee recommended that Lee's salary be cut by 36%, to 2.2m Singapore dollars (£1.1m).
