Outgoing CPIB director Eric Tan 'didn't implement changes well': DPM Teo

[steffychun]

what crap. in all other countries he would get the sack and all his pension , benefits terminated. In private sector he would get the chop immediately and even get sued for incompetence and never land a job again unless as a taxidriver or cleaner.
here he gets transferred to another cushy job and spend time playing golf or attending French culinary classes in Paris. can't even put his own dept in order. No wonder CPIB even lost the NBG /CNB case.

so trust the courts?

Where is the ministerial accountability? What's the point of having a minister when the minister will not be accountable? The minister should resign or at the minimum lose half a year's salary.
The WP should ask the PAP about ministerial accountability which is a fundamental premise of the Westminister system. It is time to step up the effort to hold the government, Mr Low!

In SG, highest pay get lowest responsibility. Ministar got immunity, director got musical chair treatment or sued in court depending on who, below director then got to resign and take responsibility. Here is pass the buck to below, not the buck stops here.

At least we have the top men of the agencies taking up responsibilities.

The question is, CPIB check on others, who check on CPIB?

All these crap about taking reponsibilities is just to shield the respective ministers from being arrowed. These are deals, and everyone lives happily ever after.

Has anyone taken responsibility for the $12million missing from SLA yet?

watz pubic humiliation? ...

ah loon even admitted his own shotsightedness, incompetencies, failures n said solly ... did any of dose damage his psyche? ... he stil happily collecting his multi-million $ salary evry month ...

Different. That is apology to win election.

To get a public scolding from the DPM for incompetence is very humiliating, especially at very senior level. Very few civil servant gets such public scolding before.

Could be just for show. TCH cannot 'sayang' ET publicly. The fact is ET is only leaving when his secondment ends. It wasn't an immediate removal. Lots of 'face' given liao.

Still waiting for someone to be held accountable for exceeding YOG budget by several times.

to be scolded so publicly on national TV and inside parliament is a major disgrace, regardless of what the boss tell you behind closed door. It's feels slightly better than being raped in public.

If ET has any pride, he should perform hari kiri.

The last public shaming I recall was the commando chief, but even the commando was no scolded for incompetence, more of taking responsibility for being the chief at time of death.

PM is at a loss. Too many chobolans to choose. Given many choices, can gabra.
