Something's rotten in Singapore





No 1MDB to blame this time 
KL, Dec 7: Is there something rotten in Singapore? Repeated financial scandals and deep-set financial deviances seem to suggest a major breakdown of compliance and serious oversight in a global financial centre. Previously, they had 1MDB to conveniently blame (for cases in that actually concerned internal processes flaws, including money laundering lapses, on the part of several international financial units based in Singapore).  
In the latest case involving Swiber, though, there's no Malaysian scapegoat to help hide the embarrassment!

    Latuk, Latuk.

    Lazy with you is a given, but what's with the lack of logic?

    "Previously, they had 1MDB to conveniently blame (for cases in that actually concerned internal processes flaws, including money laundering lapses, on the part of several international financial units based in Singapore). In the latest case involving Swiber, though, there's no Malaysian scapegoat to help hide the embarrassment!"

    This is as logical as saying a rape victim (and we've all been molested financially by Senor PinkLips) is "to blame" for the incarceration of the rapist.

    Great info coming out of the Singapore cases.

    PS: Both Senor PinkLips and Arul lied about BSI. PinkLips lied in Parliament. Look it up. You're a journalist, aren't you : )
