Honestly, i'm not bothered by the fact that the ex-stripper taught the performers their routine on the poles. i'm more keen to know what r her rates for a private session?

Who knows, maybe part of the $380M was also billed as entertainment or EXTRA remedial training??

It's getting more and more entertaining.

Perhaps it's really worth the money.

Where else can Singaporeans get such entertainment?

Ex-stripper as trainer, done a great job. Her past is irrelevant because she was a performer not a whore.

For her service there is better value for money from her service than Vivian Balaxxxxxxxx.

From the stripper you get coaching, from Vivian, we should ask what we get for the money he gets.

$7 million - What an outrages amount to pay!

Considering a size of that plane can carry 50 passenger. The loss of income could easily covered by 50 return air tickets, which amount to about S$75,000 ( 50 x 1,500) plus minus $10k.

How on earth it cost $7 million to charter? :confused:

We must be insane to believe this figure?
