You should think more critically..... if you do not know the details, how can you assume the ''obvious transfers of money'' ?
The fact that we do not know the details demand that we should be more persistent in getting such details.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The one who really needs critical thinking is you.
The source of the funding for the govt bodies are clear, the details may not be there but the source is not in doubt.
The source of funding for Chee isn't. So where is there basis for comparison.
Is Chee even open about his source? Nope.
Is the source of the funding for GIC and Temasek ever in doubt ?
You surely do not even read carefully let alone have any ability to think critically.
The question was your previous response with your statement that -
''the 'PROFIT' was obviously transferred but I do not have the details''.
My question asked again is - 'where are the PROFITS from Temasek and GIC investment of Singapore's PUBLIC MONEY' ?
Are there anyone here interested or concerned with Chee's source of money ?
What are you insinuating that Dr Chee's activities in NOT one that generates income for a service rendered ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So what service does he render to get paid? kindly explain to us all so we can understand.
You tell me, since you were the one who is fixated with his source of income and had said that his activities DO NOT generate enough income for him to travel.
Have you been using the service of a neuropsychologist and paid for such services to know that it is insignificant sums ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is he a practicing neuropsychologist? Are you saying he still have an active practice?
Why don't you ask him all that you are guessing and wasting your time posing your questions here ? Just head to SDP address and be forthright with your views and questions.
Am I - or is anyone here in this Speakers' Corner - his Keeper ?
What logic and justifiable reasons are there for you to question Dr Chee's sources of income when he is not even in Public Office ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chee is involve in local politics right? Do you know that foreign funding isn't allowed for local politics?
Finally, you expose the background of all your pretentious ignorance in being fixated with the question to his source of income.
Do you think the Singapore Government will not know more about his source of funding than anyone of us here in this Forum ?
What is to you even if he is paid by the CIA who will provide money anonymously for some University in Australia to employ him to give a series of Lecture ?
What makes you think that the CIA or the Chinese Government or any other parties will also not also pay some organisation to engage someone from the Singapore Government to attend and give a Lecture at a Private Function organised by a supposedly ''Private Enterprise'' or ''University'' ?
Will anyone of us know who is funding the Think Tank that engages LKY to be a member ?
Is there not more logic and justifiable reason to pursue the questions as to the transparent accounting of GIC and Temasek ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nope, not in this context, there is no basis for comparison.
Temasek and GIC don't get involve in politics.
GIC and Temasek is part of the POLITICAL STRUCTURE of the Singapore Government and the Ruling Party.
It is manned by Political Appointees - can they not get involved in the political process ?
How will Temasek account for the loss of S$3 BILLION in the Shin Corp debacle ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bad business decision. Just like any fund out there. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, its that simple.
Bad decision, or simply a dereliction of political responsibility in a total lack of due diligence in managing Singaporean's Money collected from a web of taxation policies.
You certainly can be callous in giving excuses with the loss of $3 BILLION - how much did they assure you of your survival ?
Carpetbeggars love to live on carpets, unfortunately yours will be only a mat.
Hang-ups are indication of some psychiatric or psychological problems.
It is bad.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You fellas do have a hang up in defending Chee's shady funding? Don't you have psychiatric or psychological problems according to your logic?
Mat, take a mat and lie in the corner and suck on your thumb.
You surely cannot look cute when you are hung and dried, and still attempt to imitate so poorly what has been directed at you.
Are we hang up defending Chee's position, or are we simply questioning your perverted hang up with Chee's source of income - when there are more important issues concerning Singapore Public Money that is not transparently accounted, while being managed by the GIC and Temasek Holding ?
