How much do some Latin American leaders make?

Here is an interesting little list of salaries for various Latin American presidents (document is a PDF, and the list is at the end of the publication). I found this on Eland Vera's Comunicación y Desarrollo Perú blog (Spanish language). He does reprint the list if readers prefer looking over that rather than the PDF. The rate is their monthly salary. Readers may want to compare that with what the President of the United States makes.

A hat tip to Global Voices Online.

That was interesting. Thanks for posting! (Also good practice for my rarely used Spanish skills.)
