    sigh....actually both ringo and proper-t are right.
    the way i see it, both are talking past each other, not to each other.

    for ringo, he give the example of other bosses having own private companies to show that it is not illegal to do so because others have already shown the way. thus WT boss also could have set up own private developer.

    for propert, he give an example of conflict interest. this is where it get interesting. try as i might to deny, his example seems a valid. if i was an outsider hearing this at the dinner party and buyer chose his bungalow, i would definitely think this boss damn "bad" one. but then again, what is morally wrong may not be legally wrong, that's just the way the world is.
    i am not a psychologist, people's fears are what usually controlled their action. his lawyer may tell him a dozen times it is legally ok, but perhaps his "fear" of being caught in "conflict of interest" situation lead him to another path, as implied by propert.

    No, it refers to the number of times you have resurrected topics from threads where you have lost or stumbled and are trying to redeem yourself.

    As highlighted before, since you are of the view that very few readers frequent this thread, why should the number bother you? Please carry on with your extremist line of questioning. I will do my utmost to help you.

    You also have not explained what you are trying to say in quote below. Your mental state appears to be deteriorating with these breaks or gaps.

    If you look back this thread I think I did ask 1 simple question.
    What is chairman of wingtai going to do with his property if redeveloping and selling his personal GCBs is considered as conflict of interest?

    Wont any sale of property be consider as conflict of interest? In fact is chairman is concerned, then all employee of WingTai should not be investing and selling property liao loh..

    So where is the logic? care to explain?

    Thank you very much for acknowledging that it could be a possible reason why he did not embark on the re-development of the property as opposed to selling it via public tender. That is what I have been trying to point out but some people refused to even consider it as a possibility. Chairman and CEOs have different personalities and think in different ways and like you pointed out, some may prefer to take a more cautious approach.

    Do you know that apart from MR B, you are being compared to Shawn in another thread? Please carry on with your postings, your infamy and 'fan' club is growing by the day. Soon, you will surpass all of them!

    No confirmed buyer for Mr. Wing Tai GCB.

    I guess the dinner for super rich was just not good enough.

    Looks like someone is reduced to petty little snipes, commenting on storage, reporting news and creating useless polls in this forum....just sad.

    I think Mr. Wing Tai might have to break up his GCB and sell them in smaller plots. Perhaps might even try to redevelop the entire site.

    $250m should be able to get you a hotel. perhaps you can live in the presidential suite and survive on room service for the rest of your life

    Haha, Ringo.....Ringo.....Why are you so concerned about Mr. Wing Tai? He is a rich man with many GCBs. This is just one of his GCBs which he is not interested in staying anymore.

    there are almost 5000 views on this thread and there are also similar threads talking about the same subject. And if you are not concern, why are you following this thread in the first place?

    Another pointless self contradicting post

    Haha, Ringo....Ringo.....Just trying to set a bait for you to get trapped in. Also I find your thread very entertaining with plenty of rubbish stories. Do keep going....
