Why higher pay with Wings Air than Lion Air

I must be missing the big picture, or some kind of picture. I have been reading R******h website and here that Wings Air are hiring ATR pilots (CAPT and FO).

The wages are very high compared to what is paid to Lion Air pilots who fly 900ER. I think the wages of an FO with Lion is about 3000usd per mth flying 100+hrs. And Capt is around 5-6000usd.

I know i didnt attend school too often especially MAth class..or english class. but there seem to be a 3000usd difference between the FO's of wings and Lion same goes with Capts pay..

I feel there is going to be a recruitment drive with Lion Air again... as pilots walk out, as the math does not add up.. first giving more money to fly a smaller plane, second I dont see Lion giving a pay rise to it pilot...if so I dont think it be the same as a WINGS ATR pilot...

I think it time for me to get a ATR type... then join WINGS or Vietnam...
