Yes, you are vey right, what I really needed is a Big Broom to sweep clean the whole system of government and to sweep the brain of the civil servant that they are working for the public and they are the Servants and not the Boss of the people. The Big Broom will also be needed to sweep clean...

FYI, this matter has already been highlighted to the Minister for Law and copied to the Attorney-General and the Chief Justice on more than one occasion. The OA blatantly disregarded the law and commit contempt of court. They refused to comply with High Court Order made on 5 November 2008. Was...

The OA has again changed their stand on the question of legal costs. They have now disallowed my lawyers to be paid their legal costs even if the court has awarded costs to me. Their earlier stand is that they had allowed my lawyers to be paid their costs if costs are awarded to me but now...

FYI, as I have said that law firm client account is a trust account and therefore there is no overdraft facility in it. Under the current law where even if the bank inadvertently allows overdraft to an account even without proper banking facility for overdraft, the account holder is still liable...

Let me give you a very brief run down of this case and my client account case. My affidavit of evidence-in-chief runs into almost 1,000 pages including exhibits. Without the supporting documents, the affidavit is about 54 pages in facts. When Standchart sued me in December 1997 to recover the...

The answer is NO.

Don't jump to conclusion just because of the way I replied. If you are dealing in a personal matter which is not your fault for 12 years and you face it day and night and sleep with it always and if you had experienced and gone through it, then you come and tell me how you feel. I have been made...

You are absolutely right that a lot of people are talking and writing without going through their head or they are only "half baked" intellectual trying to act like a banking guru thinking that they know how the banking system work.

If what you are saying is right that the bank only check on signature mandate and does not care to look into any cheque per se, then can I ask you to answer me this question. If you write a cheque for $1,000 and in numerical you state "$1,000" but in words you state "Dollars Ten Thousand...

There can never be any overdraft in a client account. The bank cannot grant any overdraft facility in a client account. If the client does not put in any money in the client account, the account will stand at zero dollar sum. Client account is a trust account. That is the reason why the law...

I have said upteem times that the present PAP members unlike members who join in the 50s and 60s are there for personal glory as they think they represent the government. How often you hear of PAP members abusing their position and privilege and threaten people that they will come after them...

If what you are saying is right that civil servants must be looked upon as GOD and be pleased by the public who seek their services otherwise they would not do you favour, then I think you must be the biggest fool in town. Civil servants are paid by the public. It is just like you pay your...

If banks are not required to read into the name of every bank account, who would then put money into the bank as there will be a free for all as the banks can then pay out of any account as their whims and fancies.

Aren't banking laws govern by Acts of Parliament. There are many Acts and subsidiary legislation governing banking practice and it matters not whether it comes from the Banking Act or the Legal Profession Act. Practice Direction issued by MAS is also law governing banks and the banks have to comply.

With due respect to what you have said, I am not arguing with you and I will leave it to the others to judge what i have said as against yours.

FYI, it is clearly stated and printed on all the clients account cheque and statement of account that it is a client account. A client account is a trust account. If it does not matter to the bank whether it is a client account or not, then why did the bank need to distinguish it and have it...

You're a once-haughty lawyer who's now bankrupt and fighting stupid fights against banks that you can't win. As a lawyer you should have read the fine print and know what you risk. By Cass888 Have you read my statement of claim, the bank's Defence and my Reply which I posted it on the blog...

Please lah. Your own partner cheated you. Keep cryingn all these years. Get over it and get on with your life with you? Loser. By cass888 Whether I am a loser or not, we shall see and see who has the last laugh.
