Reposting from Channel News Asia Forum:
"If there was no basis to the rumors/allegations both parties -- YSL and Angela Oon -- would have issued a statement denying a romantic or sexual relationship and then threatened legal action. But they did not. YSL dodged the allegations and Angela fueled the rumors by saying she could "neither confirm nor deny" them and that she hoped the media would not reveal the identity of the 'other woman.'
After the GE2011 Angela was accussed of getting her facts wrong about the Sultan Theater in Nee Soon. She posted on her Facebook page that she did not make mistakes like that. It was a minor matter yet she defended herself. But in response to an allegation that called her moral integrity into question she was silent. Why? Why did she allow her name to be dragged through the m&d if there was no basis to the allegations? And why did YSL give up a $1 million salary and a bright political future if the rumours were unfounded? Now both their lives are ruined, and the lives of their spouses. It was all so unnecessary. When the rumors first started YSL should either have denied them or admitted them and then apologized. People can forgive indiscretions but they do not like being lied to.
The "proof" has not been revealed and may never be. But for most Singaporeans the behavior of the two parties -- silence, dodging questions, "no comment", and then Yaw running away -- is sufficient proof.
That's wot I think anyway. What do others think?"
