Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer S$1,020 to pay you S$2,568,630,060. In other words, every time you spend S$10 of your hard-earned money, S$2.20 goes to the government.
Real tax rate

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 22% tax rate now rises to 22.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 0% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make S$30,823,560,720 a year living in Singapore, you will be taxed S$6,781,171,908. That means that your net pay will be S$24,042,388,812 per year, or S$2,003,532,401 per month. Your average tax rate is 22.0% and your marginal tax rate is 22.0%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of S$100 in your salary will be taxed S$22, hence, your net pay will only increase by S$78.
