For info of forummers,Lim Chee Onn left as a minister of PAP and went on to be CEO/Chairman of Keppel Ltd.He was drawing about $7.5 million a year.
Now that he has left,as a long time share holder of Keppel Ltd,I just wonder exactly what did Mr Lim do to justify earning about $ 100 million of our money.
I cant think of much that he did,only do remember that he stayed on in the ship building,ship repairing biz after MM lee declared shipbuilding/repairing biz a SUNSET INDUSTRY many years ago.
But did that justify $100 million,I do not think so,money is not that easy to earn,in the private sector I mean.

He looked at me and smile - I look back and gave him a nasty looking face and walked away.
When he was a minister and trade unionist, he was very high handed until got kicked out.
Back into civi life, he has to push chiobu trolley - just wonder who that chiobu is
