Can GIC just appoint anyone they like-there is no presidential/parliamentary oversight?

In case of a freak election, Halimah is our first gate keeper to guard our reserves. Tony Tan is the next one. With two presidents, current and former, to guard our reserves, oppies like Chee and Low will have no chance of bankrupting our reserves within a few years.

This Lao cheebye is not dead yet?
He should be preparing for his funeral proceedings.

Now that he's not the puppet president, will he still get a state burial or will his corpse be fed to dogs???

So, the Uncle is now the Special Director to GIC and the Nephew is the CEO. Liddat, both can plunder the GIC and no one will be the wiser.
