Chitchat Shanmugam Fucks Condo Manager For Planning To Spend $19k To Host AGM At Ballroom!

SINGAPORE: MP for Nee Soon GRC K Shanmugam has written to the managing agent of One Canberra after concerns were raised over the high cost of the condominium’s first annual general meeting (AGM).
Mr Shanmugam, who is also Law and Home Affairs Minister, said in a Facebook post on Sunday (May 21) that he heard about the matter from several of the Yishun condo's residents.

He said that according to the residents, the managing agent and developer were planning to spend S$19,000 to hold the meeting at a ballroom on Jun 17. This was even as the Canberra Drive Neighbourhood Committee had determined that the Chong Pang Community Club could be used on Jun 24 instead, for free.

"The residents are wondering why you should choose to spend S$19,000 when there is a much cheaper option available," the grassroots adviser said in his letter to Realty International Associates on Saturday, adding that catering would only set them back S$5,000.


“Some residents have also reported you as saying that because currently there is no MCST (Management Corporation Strata Title) yet, the managing agent has the right to choose and decide on the venue, regardless of the cost,” Mr Shanmugam added.


“You have a duty to make sure that the residents’ money is properly spent.”
Second Minister for National Development Desmond Lee was copied in the letter, said Mr Shanmugam.

The residents had not voted anyone in and this is the first AGM where it will be done. The developer always does the first AGM. The Developer is clearly using the residents maintenance funds to pay for the SGM and not using the developer's money. Real bastard.

They developer is in the same group at ERA, the same company that cheated their clients by selling to their own agent's wife below market value - remember Mike Parikh and his wife. The govt dept saw the discrepancy and alerts the seller who then successfully sued the bastards.

can't really blame them. it's a celebration of success in sales and hoodwinking sinkies into heavy soixante neuf debt. if sinkies can fall for this condo shit, they deserve the expensive agm. afterall, it's chum change for what they pay psf plus monthly dues.

Why is Shamu. involved in this? Is he staying there? or his relative or siblings or his porlumpars members??. If he is, the developer must be doing this to impress him...

It is "normal" for AGM to be held at hotel function rooms...there was one I attended years ago at The American Club... what is the hoo ha is about?...

You mean the first AGM should have been held at the nearest hawker's centre? where they can book the tables from TC...order hawker's food for the fete....won't cost more than a $2,000

You know him - he will not address strategic national issues or schisms in societies but will focus on these thing constituency matters. The exception is Malay issues where he seems to feel an affinity to.

Were Malays involved in the AGM?? Why would a Minister of Law, waste his time & effort to score brownie points with his constituents over a Strata Title owners AGM held in ? costing ??. Is there a law broken, to be broken or waiting to be broken?

Wish these guys would concentrate on their jobs. Condo proceedings are none of his business. Let the residents handle it. Isn't this intimidation ?
