Temasek Annual Report 2013 - Bonking around with bonds....

[Confuseous]

All I can say is that if Temasek’s net portfolio value is $215b and (if there is a $234.7b worth of bond expiring, hypothetically), the amount with Temasek would not be enough to redeem these bonds. Or maybe some of the bonds will be serviced by GIC. If Temasek is liable fully for this $234.7b, then the 16% annual return is going to be meaningless right? Anyone knows when will the next bond be due and how much would it be? I am just using the numbers as examples for discussion only.

And in order for Temasek to continue to hold on to this $215b, it needs to roll over the bonds by issuing more bonds to the tune of $320b. And this roll over is going to go up annually, while the value of Temasek’s holding may take a long time to catch up, which technically Temasek is operating on a negative asset basis. Tio boh?

All I am interested is, if 'them are sick' "borrow" had borrowed my hard earned, blood, sweat & tears Money(CPF) I want them all, when I retire at 55..not long term at 65 & beyond..:p and keeping raising the BAR to keep my money behind.

A 10% GST will make this a non-issue.

Totally agree. BTW more than 10 years ago THE UNHOLY TRINITY said that 2015 or 2017 would be within their timeframe to implement the 10% GST/VAT.
