Smart Sammboy bros, tell me what's wrong with MM Lee's statements here?

[Papsmearer]

[COLOR=_______]HAHAHAH! He talks about people being "hired by the state to run the company, his career is not at stake, the company succeeds or fails, his salary may go up and down slightly or he may get the sack. So if there's a crisis, he can go home at 12 o'clock and he's asleep."...

How many Cheebai chia liao bee ex-SAF generals are being hired inside ST companies?

Chao CheeBye![/COLOR]

:oIo:

There are thousands of former SAF and civil servants chiak liao bees in GLCs. Remember, u don't have to be a retired SAF general. Even ex-Cols and LTCs are also now posted to GLCs. And many superscale civil serpents also are on the BOD of GLCs.

I wonder do the Russians pay $$$ him for his speeches?

Yes, he does nothing for free. They will pay for his expenses to fly out there, 5 star hotel, honorarium to receive his fake degrees, etc. He has never reported any of these benefits, as they should be taxable. Also, how can he mentor his retard gay son whenhe is out of the country so often?

The close links to the ruling party certainly give a lot of the "insiders" many advantages. Problem is, old man likes to "reward" those old civil servants for their loyalty for supporting him in the many years.

Such "reward" does not always translate to appointments of the old civil servants into high "retirement" positions in GLCs. It can also be business opportunities given to them who have decided to venture out on their own after retirement.

A good example, I recalled, is Horizon Technology. This company was founded by a retired top ex-general of SAF (forgot his name). Eventually, all PAP's IT systems at the various TCs were supplied by Horizon. The deal (I remembered it was reported on papers) was worth tens of millions of dollars!

.... eeerrrr ..... Horizon Stable trained by Batschikker ???

Hint: nothing wrong with the statements themselves... But... after you read what he is telling the Russian, you feel like... well, what do you call a person who says 1 thing but practices another?

Hypocrite.

Old fart went to Russia to be question by students there and lan lan he must answer.

If one of the NUS students were to ask the same question he will tell them to shut up and sit down (no big no small).

Must send old fart to Malaysia and let the Malsysian students tekan him left right centre.

If one of the NUS students were to ask the same question he will tell them to shut up and sit down (no big no small).

No, he'd ask the student, what's your name, your father's name, where do you live, give me a list of examples.

"If a man is hired by the state to run the company, his career is not at stake, the company succeeds or fails, his salary may go up and down slightly or he may get the sack. So if there's a crisis, he can go home at 12 o'clock and he's asleep."

this explains why neither he, nor his subordinates ever want to retire.
