Judicial Commissioner, High Court Judge, Judge of Appeal, Attorney General. Served under WCJ, YPH and CSK. Why wasn't he qualified to be CJ?
At least, appoint him CJ for 3 years or so or till his retirement. Mei yu kong lau yea yu ku lao.

Sundaresh Menon's still very young. His time will come. Can wait. But, at age 52, appointed CJ. What's the rush?

Any bros here can help me understand CHT's exclusion and SM's appointment? Looks like CHT was marginalised. Cannot get along with top politicians or not trusted by them?
 
Possibly some things he was asked to do and it did not go well with him. CHT I understand from sources is a man that has decency, sth that is not the mark of CJs with YPH as case in point.
 
DPM, Finance Minister and Law Minister are all Indian.
I think there is a thread spinning.
 
If that's the case , why not V.K. Rajah then ?...:cool:
 
sundaresh will provide some fresh air to the juicydal, oops sorry, judicial process. :p
 
The appointment of a CJ is an opportunity to set the tone necessary for the next stretch. It is a trend that crossed over from the private sector where CEO are usually from a different organsiations and the same is noted in many western public sectors where key executives are now from the rank and file. Despite VK liberal outlook he was went faster to the appellate bench than Chao.

In fact there has been talks for many years that the CJ job was reserved for AP Rajah......... Dun know what happened which made him a walked-over. Izzit that he was found to be too stiff? Or Menon is very pliable.......????
 
With Menon, Steven Chong n Quentin Loh........... it says a lot about Rajah n Tann watering hole...?
Shamugan said his current pay is a lot less than the taxes he was paying while he was lawyer in AnG,,,,,,,,, so we can guess how much these bloodsuckers earn. How many of these cockroaches donate to charity?
 
Expect some very very "tua leng kong " case in the coming
months . thats explained it .

Sala liao. VK about same age as Shan. VK's lau pay was TT Rajah. Latter a prominent figure in Barisan then.

Is Inderani Rajah (Senior Minister of State for Law), sister of the late Assoc Prof Ananda Rajah related to TT Rajah?
