Not only reopen Teoh beng Hock case, but also those who die during investigation by MACC
Isn't that a crime "male assault female" that's jail time according to the law.
I feel very suspicious that she looks like my school's teacher, and my school is considered prestigious.
Goes to show NTUC Income is not competently managed, it should have been either organic or inorganically grown all these years to protect Singaporean interests instead of being cannibalized. Look at Singlife as an example, what have the appointed NTUC executives been doing? Where is the so-called meritocracy and accountability as a cooperative?
If it is so profit-orientated, why keep the Oxley Road property, sell it and it will immediately raise the plot ratio of the estate. Lim Boon Heng argument is a contradiction.
The price of paying a high salary to the Ministers, they are the ones who can call the shot to keep their KPI. Soon they will start tearing down everything that belongs to the nation to sell and make their KPI look good.
The cat is just a witness to the situation
MAS is not independent. Ownself judge ownself?? Let the voters judge. Remember to vote. I know which party I won't be voting for .
Yes, MAS as well as AG should investigate the sale to Allianz without seeking consent from Singaporeans who are the largest pool of customers and the sale to a private profit seeking company is not good for Sg citizens and original intent would be sacrificed.
Fully support the investigation for INCOME sales like who will benefit the most from this takeover. Any corruption involved?
German business conglomerate ambition is to make the most profit from their investment. It is very risky to sell majority of INCOME stake to foreign investors, They will not have any thoughts or compassion for the welfare of our local people except to gain more profit. Eventually the insurance policy will increase the premium which will affect majority of the policy holders who are mainly retirees in their seventies. I applauded Prof Koh for his concern to the Singaporeans. Hope existing policy holders will ponder over this issue.
Fully agreed !!! All this people needed to check their work performance... all are failing expectations... 😢😢😢sad
GREED GREED GREED.... LHY is right, the PAP lose their way they are no longer the leaders of LKY time.... SAD
Paris is a shame in all counts. Not only the committee made a mockery of Christianity and spirit of Olympic but also against non LGBTQ competitors.
saya berharap semua supir bantuan memiliki keberanian seperti dia
Should change the board of NTUC Enterprise and Income. Remove the civil servants, ex-politicians and investment bankers from the two boards. Temasek should also recapitalize Income by injection $2B. Then Income can compete and be able to provide insurance services to Singaporeans.
According to our ridiculous Law Jaywalk : Driver is penalised with heavy sentenced Red man : Driver is penalised with heavier sentenced Green man : Driver is penalised with heaviest sentenced What the point of having lights when no matter what man or what light. Vehicle is always wrong . illogical to in my opinion. Might as well walk or cycle across CTE ? Maybe all our minister has chauffeurs. That’s why they can’t understand ?
Karim Khan is a big bigot. Fake person. A propagandist. Pursuing an antisemitic fight against Isreal like Xenophobia South Africa. When Hamas attacked Isreal on October 7th, 2023 killing 1300 unarmed civilians, shooting babies and took 275 captive, did Khan fulfill his responsibilities? Has he brought the Iranian "Supreme" leader and President to book for fanning that attack? Hezbollah and Huthis are raining missiles on Israelis civilians today has Khan taken his responsibilities? Khan is so biased that he is not fit for that office. He is not an objective and independent minded person.
If Khelif has XY chromosomes, he is a Male. End of the argument.
Camionero tiene derecho a defenderse.
There is no fairness debate. THE MAN is a CHEATER and should go to jail for this. Along with everyone that enabled this man to cheat. And all of those people and their families should lose everything so they are living on the streets with nothing. And give it to the women these men where allowed to bully and cheat against.
Shut up if you have voted

The IBA disqualified them unfairly and did not follow the proper procedure. Both have been competing for many years and have never had their gender questioned before this.
I support that Chinese shop keeper, because In Malaysian Tamils always try to bully , foreigner who come in Malaysia for earning,
These pests not only disregard rules on the road, park connectors too.

Oh hell no 😳
No man power.
We have heard enough strong evidence that assurances given by the leaders that the sale of NTUC INCOME are not enough to allay the fears of the majority. Please pause & revisit & reconsider the matter. Thank you.
