Why Alvin Yeo MUST resign over that overcharged bill

Confuseous said:

Roy and Hui Hui were heckled to death by the self-righteous MPs and ministers, based on reports in ST.

It has been a week since, and the over-charging of Alvin Yeo by more than $1million has also been reported by ST.
Surely, the ST is a credible source - how come there is total silence on the cowardly MPs who had jumped on the bandwagon over a trifle matter of reported heckling.

Alvin Yeo and his law firm has not uttered a single word on this matter.

What do you think?

MP Alvin Yeo can always claim that his firm, Wong Partnership, prepared the bills and not him. But as a MP and a Senior Counsel, he should have been able to see that the legal fees he was charging were ridiculously high. In one of their bills, they had charged some $77,102 for each day they were in court. In another bill, it was $46,729 for each day in court.

Justice????...Will Alvin Yeo as a standing MP of the PAP will never get into ANY fucking trouble because of this overcharging issue.

It seems too simplistic for the Review Committee to allow a stupid explanation that Alvin had nothing to do with the bill because he didnt draw it up....wtf kinda explanation is that when the bill gets paid and he gets his hands on the money.....so when the going gets tough he didnt draw the bill. And if nobody asks any questions and pays up the bill, he can happily enjoy the fruits of this grossly inflated bill? Enjoy the perks but not take on any of the burden????...

In South Korea, the captain of the ferry was blamed for causing it to capsize and many young school children were drowned but the Prime Minister of South Korea, who got nothing to do with the incident, still tendered his resignation over the tragedy. Honourable people are indeed rare in paps. Even the MP Intan got the cheek to lie when confronted with the facts.

Did Susan prepare her own bills or the accounts dept?

If the train should derailed one day killing hundreds, Desmond Kuek could claim he didn't drive it.

SMC, in this instance, is also complicit in the rip-off. They didn't object to the bills and stood with the law firm to defend the charges. Doctors are crooks as well.

I think they are busy now on other matters, like Roy, Hui Hui ,Toa Payoh 5 (no court news?) .

Don't forget, its people like Alvin Yeo (top earner in each professions) who are used to benchmark and justify the highest paid ministers in the world's salaries.

Alvin is also an example of what they constantly talked about to workers asking for salary increase i.e -productivity-meaning output per unit of input.
If productivity is measured in $ billings per hour, Alvin must be the most productive lawyer in the world and should be held up as the PAP icon of productivity.
If you disagree, you can always vote Alvin and his ilk out of parliament.
