DPM (Double Penetration Minister) Teo want to restrict poor overwork civil serpent chiak liao bees from going to casino during work hours woh. Wah lau, poor civil serpent work hours are so long, if they don't go during their work hours, than when they got the time? Why dun Lee Bee Wah also ask Double Penetration Minister what is the rules on chionging at geylang during the work hours or going to bar and lim Hennesy? This country got so many problems with high cost of housing, FT stealing jobs, education pressures, etc. and all Lee Chee Bye Wah can think is to ask this kind of cock questions about civil serpents going to casino? Is she trying to wayang that she is hard at work, sucking taxpayer money to ask these kinds of moronic questions? Unbelievable, this caliblur of PAP MPs.
SINGAPORE : Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean has said all civil servants are expected to conduct themselves "in a manner which upholds the integrity of the Public Service and public confidence in it".
This was in a written response to Ang Mo Kio GRC MP Lee Bee Wah's queries on rules for public officers who visit gaming places such as casinos and the Singapore Turf Club, and whether there are public officers who hold sensitive positions who are barred from visiting such gambling establishments.
Mr Teo said: "Civil servants are prohibited from gambling during work hours and on official premises. They are also required to inform their respective Permanent Secretaries immediately if they are financially embarrassed or served with bankruptcy proceedings. In addition, all officers are required to make an annual declaration of indebtedness or non-indebtedness."
He added that while there are no explicit guidelines to prohibit civil servants from gambling in their own time, to prevent situations where possible conflicts of interest may arise, there are restrictions imposed for certain groups of officers.
Police officers are not allowed to visit casinos while on duty, unless for official reasons, such as to investigate casino-related cases.
Officers in the Casino Regulatory Authority are not allowed to participate in gaming activities within the casinos in Singapore or in overseas casinos belonging to the holding companies of the Singapore casino operators, even when they are not on duty.
