I'm sure people know of top Singapore students who were rejected from NUS medical school. Yet, now they admit all sorts of people as senior doctors. And promote them fast too. Is there really so little Singaporean talent from all those other top students and Presidents scholars who entered NUS medical school?
Vice-Chairman is a high position. Who knows, this Dr Lu could be the next head of NUH, or Dean of one of our medical schools.
On the other hand, Singaporean who appears to step a little out of line, I think we know what happens to them. Not talking about near criminal acts like this case here, but about much less. Example, wasn't there some Singaporean junior doctor at NUH who was named because of some lapse during night-duty on a cardiac surgery patient? This was probably not even serious enough for Medical Council to look at. Yet I think this person has had to leave, lost specialist training position.
Knowing how the authorites operate, it is likely someone from the establishment backed up this doc's application. Similar to LHL backing Tharman.
let's face it
life is never fair
you got influence and power
you got godfathers and connections
you will suffer less
if you are a nobody
you will be sacrificial lamb
life is like this
accept it and move on
things will right themselves
justice will be done
in mysterious ways....dont worry
those alien rabid dogs will be culled...
This case does not make sense. This chap should have been cleared or sought re-registration after serving his penalty within the original jurisdication. It begs the question if his full and thorough account was verified with the American authorities. NUH statement did not mention this and I suspect no one actually checked what happened. No professional gets a ban unless it is serious.
We screw our local professionals and I can assure I have not seen one recover and hold the position that Liu currently has.
I can't help but think that that he might be related by marriage to someone from Singapore or is a classmate of someone here or his family has business ties with someone in a GLC.
If we have pick a foreigner, then why pick someone with a black mark. There are millions of doctors from around the world. What is so special about this guy. What special skills does he have.
The Workers Party needs to raise this in Parliament.
i live for the day when your last 4 lines are right

4. Why is NUH desperate to pick a foreigner who has a professional blemish and why not pick a clean skin from around the world ?
Maybe in this forum, we should start calling FT not as Foreign talent, but Foreign Trash.
You got it right. This FT's father was a former PLA general who served under Mao Zedong. He is connected to a very senior cadre in northeastern China where as you know, Singapore has a billion-dollar partnership to develop the agribusiness industry.

There was a GP who was jailed and got his licence revoked recently for selling cough syrups without prescriptions. Is he given a second chance after he serve his time in Changi? Unlikely. Too bad his dad was not a general.

1. Was his story verified with the American body that banned him?
2. Was he recommended or sponsored by anyone?
3. Is his family related or engaged with a GLC in any business arrangement?

Isn't this like, maybe eh..like corruption
In Spore everything is Lee-gal when the PAP is involved. So the universal old fashioned ideas of right or wrong don't apply![]()
I suspect this was not checked by the Singapore Medical Council, nor was this checked by NUH.
