Scott 28 was in the news cos people queued up over night ... he ought to know
he probably thought the people respected him ... and wouldnt mind that he jumped Q .... and got a discOriginally Posted by ay123
afterall he was the PM ... and that the people SHOULD BE happy to live in the same block as the PM ... '
too bad ...he thought wrong

whatever the case .. buying and not staying ... he would have done some homework on that project ... or at least someone has done that part .. to make him put $$ into it ...
so ay123 .... tell me ... how could he not know that he was given a discount ?
tell me he wasnt lying when he said he was not aware of a disc given to him
ST will NEVER ever print anything on this part ...
so much for your idol ... clean and transparent ...
I know of investors who know nuts about properties but just give the cash to the friend or housing agent and say 'do whatever you want with this cash but return me everything plus profit'. So it can really be he don't know.. hahaha!!!
so a minister cannot even buy a property? even if he is buying for investment, is there anything wrong? he built spore with high regards of transparency, why would he want to tarnish it with the discount?Originally Posted by proud owner
nobody said they cannot buy propertiesOriginally Posted by ay123
but to say he was not aware hes gotten a discount is a lie to me ..
a Prime minister ...and his son .. bought properties wihtout knowing the market price ?? what a joke ..
everytime they did somethign wrong..just blah blah and 'move on'...
so did WKS
so did MBT
all yur idols .. so transparent .. we are able to see thru them ...while you cant
not going to debate with you on this anymore ..
hes stepped down ..
good for him
can rest and enjoy life
were we surprised ? maybe
but i am not
i was surprised it took him so long to finally give up
case close .........

may i ask a random question also
when parliament open Mr LKY and GCT will become backbencher ?
i never see them sit at the back before mah
i assume they cannot dun attend right? since they may need to voice out on behalf of respective grc
Not all MPs attend parliament... Not compulsory. They can still sit in front lah, I'm sure... it doesn't matter where ministers and MPs sits, right? Or is there such segregation?Originally Posted by taggy
if they dun attend, wait ppl will complain they take 15k mp allowance waste tax payer money liaoOriginally Posted by ysyap
But if they attend and tv cameras caught them napping how?Originally Posted by taggy
Yup... its always more prudent to be caught off TV than on TV doing the wrong thing... hahaha!!! Already caught several MPs like that le...Originally Posted by hopeful
Bro, the separation from malaysia was out of no choice, LKY wanted a merger which was why he cried on national tv when there was no merger. Everyone calls him a visionary, but I don't see it that way coz he never wanted a separation and wanted singapore to still be under malaysia. LKY happens to be in the right place at the right time doing the right things under adverse circumstances of separation. I call him a survivor and a resourceful man, but never a visionary. The singapore now is also shaped by many of his right hand men like goh keng sweeOriginally Posted by devilplate
