2. What he has been doing since.

He screwed up in Suzhou. That's why he didn't mention it. Nothing to show for it.

As usual,PAP MPs are very much delighted to pad their resumes to impress and highlight how important and "great" they are as if they got 2 heads and 6 limbs e.g.Yeo Guat Kwang.

Very similar to Balaji - was told that he was going to lose his acting Ministership and offered MOS but decided to leave. Protege of PY and did not measure up.

hahaha...from acting ministar to MOS...a 2 step demotion.
if this is not bullshit....it must mean that the person who made such an offer must be kuku if he thinks any sane person (let alone acting ministar) will accept such an offer.

at that time, internet was not so popular and I want to know if David Lim also had mistress like Michael Palmer and David Ong?
