They fake it, but they can't make it

Old news but still an interesting article in the New Paper on May 4 in which a part of it read as follows:

APRIL 2015: Infocomm Development Authority (IDA) employee Nisha Padmanabhan was accused of misleading her employers after it was revealed that she had a master's degree from online-based Southern Pacific University, which is allegedly a degree mill. She was cleared of claims that she misled her employers when she applied for the job, as her employment had not been based on her MBA, according to IDA.

If this Indian ah neh did not mislead the IDA, did she mislead MOM or ICA when she applied for employment pass or shitizenship respectively?

When IDA accepted that they have an employee who openly flouted to be the holder of a bogus degree, the image of IDA is adversely affected as well because it begs the question of "how many fakes are there working in IDA?"

lack of accreditation doesn't mean it is fake. the element of cheating is not there..

unlike diploma mills.

While the terms "degree mill" and "diploma mill" are commonly used interchangeably, within the academic community a distinction is sometimes drawn.[4] A "degree mill" issues diplomas from unaccredited institutions which may be legal in some states but are generally illegitimate, while a "diploma mill" issues counterfeit diplomas bearing the names of real universities.
