Re: Sinkie Son Of Loser Senior Counsel Jailed For 10 Years AWOL! Father Useless Overs

That extract that you quoted was made in 2006 in parliament. Its refers to the pianist Melvyn Tan case. The 20 years refers to before 2006. There is no $500 fine under Enlistment case and no need to do NS. Again it is not a traffic offence. After the Pianist case, jail became part of the sentencing. Only those who are 40 and above are fined, jailed but no need to NS>

Again falsifying and misrepresenting as you go along.
https://www.mindef.gov.sg/imindef/press_room/official_releases/nr/2006/jan/16jan06_nr.html

no falsifying nor misrepresenting. as usual you twist and turn again. first you said everyone gets detained, go to jail and has to serve ns. now you said that is after 2006. well, there have been cases after 2006 where fines without detention and or jailtime are being served, in fact as late as oct-2016. look up chidambaram brothers. prosecutors asking for jailtime overruled by judge. (you'll twist and turn again, but just give you enough rope for you to hang yourself.) by the way, i'm still in shock to hear about the $500 fine. in fact before they set foot in sg i advised them to prepare for detention at airport, that he may serve jailtime, that he may have to serve ns for 2 full years, to advise his u.s. employer about his long absence and he may have to quit his job, and the best they could wriggle out is $5000 to $10k fine plus ns service without jailtime. when they returned and told me it was only a $500 fine, i gasped and went into disbelief. it's true. don't need to fabricate this story. if you choose not to belief, it's up to you to research case with mindef. don't just outright deny, twist and turn just because your ego is hurt and credibility dashed. look at it positively that i'm giving you a tipoff about the $500 case. it's worth looking into and digging it out for your so called inside archives of wierd and seldom heard of cases.

Tan Chee Meng never resigned and migrated to Canada though the whole family got the VISA. At that time he was with AG. The eldest son was indeed struggling with Mandarin and the family made the decision to send the sons to study with the intention to eventually migrate. He went over to her them to settle down and thereafter made the usual visits taking leave.

Once the kids began attending University the wife came back. It looks like their heart was not in it and they did it to avoid doing Mandarin. It also looks like bad planning. A number of PP and Judges in our legal service have sent their kids to Australia to do their secondary and A levels. A house is purchased and the mums will look after them. The Australian Govt allows the purchase of house (not new) for those on student visa but must sell the house when they leave. I am not sure why he did not follow his colleagues who did it.




Allan should have just packed up and migrate. Sad.

The $500 fine is compounded, introduced in 2003 I think, for certain offences under the Enlistment Act / Regulations.

what you said makes no sense. The article says that he and his family moved to Canada in 2000. And then you say he was AG at that time. but he was with Harry Elias Partnership from 1993 to 2007, how can he be with the AG office? At that time, as a senior counsel with Harry elias, he can also work for the AG? That is some serious conflict and not happening. In addition, if he was still with the AG when he moved his kids to canada, he would have some explaining to do to his bosses at the AG, because he would have needed a police security check by the canadian consulate, The police would have checked him out before giving him the police check, and they would most certainly have tipped off the AG's office when such a senior lawyer has the Canadian consulate asking for a police check on him.

This is Spore where got “reap future benefits as a Singaporean” :eek:

Everything here is Pay And Pay. People who want to send their kids to the local international schools cannot even get permission unless of course they are elites.
Let's be honest NS has become an unfair burden on Sporeans that prevent them from competing with foreigners.

It is also one of the main reasons that drive males to emigrate.

Lots of benefits reaped from completing PSLE. It a lifetime of bragging rights! :cool:

thank you very much. now it makes sense. in mitigation, the young chap is born in u.s., father registered him as sinkie citizen when he was less than a year old, he never step into sg until last december to settle his case, no sg nric, no sg passport; he travels with his u.s. passport; his brother's case was settled years ago without him going to sg as he registered for ns on time and sought deferment until 21 when he renounced successfully.

Harry Elias Partnership from Nov 1993- June 2007
Managing Partner of WongPartnership Jan 2005 - June 2007

So between Jan 2005 to June 2007 he was in both Harry and Wong ??

You conveniently put a short extract that was 10 years old which referred to previous 20years i.e. 30 years ago. I provided the link for the extract from Parliament and gave full context. You got caught out misrepresenting and making false claims.

Since the case of Melvyn Tan, the pianist that upset the country, there is no such thing as $500 fine for failing to serve NS and you are free to come and go. The fine is always a few thousand and jail sentence for defaulters and if they are below 40 years of age they still have to do NS. Where you are born makes no difference and whether you even entered Singapore makes no difference as you had the protection of the country as citizen.

Grandmother stories are plenty. Your is one of those.

As I said, this is not McDonald where you walk up and place your order.

It is not illegal for a public servant to apply for Police check to migrate. In fact the application ask you specify the reason for applying. Not everyone eventually migrate. However the authorities do refer sensitive post holders upwards and there is usually a "chat". Some are re-assigned but not demoted. SAF personnel while on overseas assignments such as Scottsdale, Perth etc who apply are sent back. Thought their post might not sensitive i.e. mechanics, engineers, etc, the SAF feels that they spent so much money and they cannot afford it becoming a trend.

Errol Foenander, former DJ1 and subsequently posted to AG and prosecuted Tharman under Official Secrets Act who had Cat A clearance as some of the testimony was under camera had applied for police check to migrate. After the case he retired and migrated.

what you said makes no sense. The article says that he and his family moved to Canada in 2000.

Tan Chee Meng only got 2 scholarships from the PAP lah. He got a Colombo Scholarship, to study at the University of Canterbury for his initial law degree. Then he got a Singapore govt Legal scholarship to study at NUS, which is to say he got nothing. He would have gotten into NUS on his own anyway, and NUS tuition fees in those days not that much. The scholarship was the cheapest the PAP can give out. He might as well not have taken it because of the bond he had to sign. the only significant scholarship he got was to study masters in law at Cambridge, that caused the govt some change.

in fact those days law faculty is dumping ground for those rejected by other courses or dept....... in fact for a couple of years there was NO first class hons............. even Justice Lai Kew Chye got second class hons only

Not for defaulting on serving NS. Exit permit not done etc yes.

If "defaulting on serving NS", you are referring to Enlistment for full-time NS (under Section 10 of the Enlistment Act), yes, it is not compoundable.
However, before we even talk about enlistment, one has to register for NS first (under Section 4), and then attend a medical examination (under Section 5). These are compoundable.

In the case eatshitndie mentioned, my guess is that the offence was for Registration.
