A rebuttal to Tan Hau Teck's unkind letter on Dr Allan Ooi

[Avantas]

I refer to the letter by Mr Tan Teck Hau titled “Dr Allan Ooi’s death: Rather than point the finger” which was published on page 22 of TODAY. (read letter here)

I am absolutely appalled and disappointed that the TODAY editors felt fit to publish such a misleading, insensitive and meaningless letter.

Either Mr Tan does not comprehend simple English or he misunderstood the intention of the Ooi family in their request to MINDEF to set up an independent panel to address the deceased doctor’s concerns about his work.

Nowhere in the letter did the Ooi family point any fingers at MINDEF. All they ask is for MINDEF to answer some questions which has been troubling them. (read the Ooi family’s letter here)

A life has been lost and the only way the grieving family can bring the matter to a proper closure is to find out the mitigating factors behind Dr Allan Ooi’s decision to end his life.

If the same tragedy happens to Mr Tan’s son, brother or friend, will he be so callous to brush the matter aside too? Won’t he demand answers from MINDEF who owes the deceased doctor a moral duty of care as his employer?

Both Mr Tan and TODAY owe the family and friends of Dr Allan Ooi an apology for hurting their feelings and insulting the dignity of a dead man who is unable to defend himself.


Hey Avantas puhleeze, oh and next time try and be a tad more calm rational and objective. Oh and what is good for the goose is also good for the gander
