This chap also good for nothing.
Don't know what good he did to Joo Chiat estate.
Always like to sing "Heaven sword and Dragon Sabre" in karaoke.

Useless crap. What do MPs even do half the time?

If i tell them i no money to buy food, they will tell me to go upgrade my skills to find job only right?

SINGAPORE — Former Member of Parliament Chan Soo Sen was fined S$2,000 and disqualified from driving for a year after he pleaded guilty to an offence drink driving at a district court this morning (Aug 1).
The 56-year-old, who was the MP of Joo Chiat Single Member Constituency from 2006 to 2011, committed the offence on July 13.
<!-- inline -->
Speaking to the media after the hearing, Chan, who was a Minister of State of various ministries between 2001 and 2006, said that this was his first traffic offence. On the evening of July 13, he drove to a charity event as he could not find a cab. Chan drank some red wine as organisers of the charity event had toasted him.
After the the event, he did not ask a car jockey to drive him home. Chan then drove along Cantonment Road towards the direction Outram Road where he met a police road block at 11.55pm.
Chan, who admitted that he had consumed alcoholic drinks earlier that evening, then failed the breathalyser test at the road block. Chan had 50mg of alcohol per 100ml, over the legal limit of 35mg.
Chan also told reporters that he had stated in his mitigation plea, which was not read out in court, that he did not cause any accident, injury or damage to public property and had cooperated with the authorities.
Chan, who was accompanied by a friend to today’s hearing, added that he accepted the punishment and wants to move on.
He could have been fined up to $5,000 or jailed up to six months.

Re: Ex-Joo Chiat MP Chan Soo Sen pleads guilty to drink driving

Likely to have been arrested by Volunteer Cops.... not regulars.

VSC volunteer cops will arrest anyone without fear or favour.....

I think Regulars would watch out for their ricebowls, and are more likely to be "flexible" with VIPs......? yes?

I was away..Anyone knows what is the outcome of the accident involving 6 vehicles near Bugis Junction some 3 months back..???

This guy was probably some big shot as the ST defended his good character and stress his importance of being a Singapore swimming Club member..

The paper said he works very hard that day and the weather was terribly unfavourable.

I am keen cos the paper was terribly biased with the report..

No mention how his conduct endangered the lives of other ordinary
singaporean

 

[spotter542]

Kangaroo court shielding their own again
$2000 fine is just a slap on the wrist
No jail time , thought folks in the civil service gets double for any wrongdoing :oIo:

Not too sure about this case too. I think the verdict is not out yet.

The Mata had done a good job. If hes a forummer here, I will up his point.

And drunk driving that result in road kill is just a bigger fine and maybe short jail term. No wonder all drivers don't care about drunk driving.

What is $2000 fine compared to $200000 cars? Only 1%.
