Minister of State for some shit or other. Pay him million $ salary and send him to Venice to open a fucking pavilion? related to Tan Chin Siong of SMU? I think its the brother, right?



SINGAPORE: Minister of State for Culture, Community and Youth, Mr Sam Tan, will launch the Singapore Pavilion at the Venice Biennale during his visit to Venice from May 5 to 9.

The Venice Biennale marks Singapore’s seventh participation at one of the most established and important international platforms for contemporary art, said the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) in a media release on Monday (May 4).

Singapore’s return to the Venice Biennale also coincides with its 50th year of independence as a nation-state.

MCCY added that this is part of the Government’s commitment to creating opportunities for Singapore artists to tap into global platforms, reach out to new international audiences, and pursue artistic excellence.

Mr Tan will be accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, the National Arts Council and the National Gallery of Singapore, said MCCY.
 
Another one of the 'feel-good' projects sanctioned by the SG50 committee to commemorate the 50th anniversary of getting kicked out of Malaysia. ;)
 
Sam Tan is Sam's Leong cousin. Mother's side.
 
What a waste of money, and to send him there via first class on SIA?
 
Is he a chinese helicopter?
Confirm chinese helicopter from Anglican high. Even his class mates have no good words for him. From civil service go to cadc. Before coming out, camp at bishan 24/7 together with ctp. The worst of the lot.

Ah Poh is a seasoned business man and he knows how to act humble. Sam very yaya papaya. The feeling I got then was they were not in good terms. Anyway both succeeded in getting what they wanted. Crows of feather flock together. Or maybe should use seagull.

Ah Poh is filthy rich but strangely, yet to hear of him chionging. Maybe my radio no good. On the other hand, Lian Beng towkay quite regular in hanging flowers.

heard about his famous quote : drink water must remember water come from where ???:confused:

If that quote is verbatim, with respect, I believe that his English is not up to par.
I wonder how he received a B.A. (honours second upper)
 
With respect, I am unable to understand the reason(s) for a guy who attended Chinese schools, to have a name like Sam,
whereas I have been a resident in Toronto for 30 plus years, and I am happy with the name my parents gave me at birth.
