"Workers’ Party chief Low Thia Khiang spoke publicly about the Auditor-General’s Office’s report for the first time in Parliament this afternoon on Feb. 12, 2015.

He said that his party takes seriously the findings of lapses in governance and compliance in its Aljunied-Hougang-Punggol East Town Council (AHPETC) and supports the government’s move to strengthen the oversight of town councils.

Even as parliament exploded with a flurry of exchanges as the incumbent and opposition party clashed (see here, here, here and here) for the first real time since the General Election 2011, the reasons offered by WP for their lapses have been convincing, to say the least.

Here are four justifications offered by Low in parliament to explain the predicament the party found themselves:

1. AHPETC’s problems stemmed from its difficulty in finding an established managing agent to hire after winning Aljunied GRC in May 2011.

Low revealed that large managing agents that run People’s Action Party town councils in Singapore would not take the WP’s business.

Speaking in Parliament, Low said: “… it seems that the managing agents serving PAP town councils are unwilling to serve in non-PAP town councils, and the reason appears to be political rather than professional.”

2. Winning a GRC in GE2011 is tantamount to having to get hundreds of civil servants on standby to take over.

After winning a proper GRC, WP’s MPs were responsible for scaling up Hougang SMC’s system to fit a GRC many times its size.

The difficulty of this task was compounded in the face of previous Aljunied GRC contractors, who served the PAP, terminating their services abruptly — all within a stipulated 90 days transition period.

Low said: “Under our current system, it seems to be that any opposition party which aspires to be elected in a GRC will have to build a town management team to train hundreds of staff officers first, (then) start shopping for an off-the-shelf accounting software.”

“If an opposition party aspires to be the next government, it may need to build an army of civil servants first.”

“This is a strange political situation for any functioning democracy to be in.”

3. Teething problems: The severity of AHPETC’s problems are minimised when looked at from a different scale.

Low said that this current episode should be put in the proper perspective.

This is because AHPETC’s performance in the annual town council grading exercise had been found to be “comparable to other town councils.”

Other than poor management of its service & conservancy charges, Low emphasised that the AGO report did not find the town council to be engaged in corrupt practices nor were there any lost of money.

4. Workers’ Party’s steep learning curve will serve it well

The conclusion drawn from Low’s remarks are clear: The learning curve is invaluable for WP as it will only do better next time it wins another election/ GRC.

Low said that the WP has learned from the AGO audit that it should have appointed a consultant to look at internal controls in compliance with the Town Council Act, to allow the elected MPs focused on taking over the town to ensure that major services are not disrupted.

He said: “This is something we would do if such a privilege happens in future elections.”

Low emphasised that in addition to strengthening the Town Councils Act, he hopes that the Government looks at the “de-politicisation of the transition process” when town councils change hands, adding that the WP welcomes the PAP Government’s scrutiny of its town council as this is what happens in a “First World Parliament”.

Shanmugam made the libelous claim that The Workers' Party was taking money from the man in the street and giving it to their friends.

So how do we characterize the PAP's lapses?

Taking money from taxpayers and giving it to strangers and in some cases, cronies who own the various properties and facilities that the ministries have contracts with?

Background Story: AGO Finds Serious Irregularities In Public Fund Usage By MINDEF, CPF, NLB, MDA

The Ministry of Defence was identified by the Auditor-General's report released today, as one of the public bodies which had lapses in the use of public funds.

In particular, MINDEF's land and asset management was flagged as being an issue.

One particular instance was to do with the management of the land currently leased out to Sembawang Country Club (SCC).

The land was under the MINDEF's control and they had leased it to SCC in 1994 for use as a golf course.. Despite the State Land Rules indicating that the lease should not exceed three years, the land was still under the control of Sembawang Country Club last year.

On top of this SCC had leased out a wooded section of the land illegally to a contractor and failed to maintain is as required under their original lease from MINDEF.

The wooded section was subsequently trashed with waste, discarded vehicles and heavy machinery, which required public funds to clean up.

Although the land has since been cleaned up and MINDEF said they are looking into the illegal subletting matter, their lack of management of the land has amounted to MINDEF not receiving the fair market value of the land that they own and this is a serious lapse in asset and land management.

The second instance of unsatisfactory land and asset management was in the renting of 109 hectares of land from PUB in 1971 for $68 a year.

MINDEF had subsequently changed the use of the land and started to use more than the land that they had originally leased, breaching their licence agreement with PUB.

They also sublet a section of the land to contractors for $45 a year for the contractors to provide services to MINDEF.

It was not until the AGO flagged this that MINDEF explained that they have already entered into a new agreement costing $5.42 million a year for 127 hectares of land.

At the same time, the subletting of the land to the MINDEF contractor was still only charged at $45 a year despite the contractor having privatised in 2000. The contractor was also using the land for commercial reasons on top of just providing services to MINDEF.

As MINDEF was paying substantially more for the land (from $68 a year to $5.42 million a year) but still charging the same $45 a year to a private company to use part of the land, there was a significant shortfall covered by public funds.

MINDEF explained that they have since signed a new agreement with the contractors to pay $830,000 a year in rent.

These instances of improper land management mean that public funds were not utilized efficiently and there was a significant opportunity loss by the underutilization of MINDEF owned land.

Background Story: AGO Finds Serious Irregularities In Public Fund Usage By MINDEF, CPF, NLB, MDA

The Media Development Authority was one of the statutory boards identified by the Auditor-General's report as having lapses which have lead to a waste of public funds.

The main leakage of public funds from within the MDA was in the failure to follow up on projects that it had approved grants for.

The AGO audited 28 projects all together and found that 5 of those had not been submitted to the MDA over 12 months after the due dates. 2 more were found to have been submitted up to 6 months late. These projects had been receiving public money from the MDA in the form of grants.

The AGO wrote that there was "no evidence" to suggest that MDA had done anything to follow up on these cases promptly

This means that there is pretty much no incentive for grant recipients to stick to their deadlines and could open the door to more applicants simply applying for public funds and then not putting in any effort to deliver the projects.

Overall, the lack of MDA oversight of grant recipients means that about $39,500 was wasted in the 14% of projects that the AGO actually audited.

How much more public money was actually wasted last year thanks to MDA's lax oversight?

The MDA clarified that since the findings, they have already tightened controls over the management of grants and they will be launching a grant management system in December to streamline the process.

http://newnation.sg/2015/02/numerou...on-wan-said-commit-suicide-because-of-lapses/

Numerous PAP MPs put on 24-hour suicide watch after Khaw Boon Wan said commit suicide because of lapses

Unable to stand incompetent overpaid dead weights who cannot do their jobs properly as required, National Development Minister Khaw Boon Wan told parliament on Feb. 12, 2015 that MPs who caused lapses to occur must commit suicide via hara-kiri, as a matter of atonement and accepting responsibility for failure.

Following his speech in Parliament, security staff were seen rushing to put a number of PAP MPs deemed to be of the greatest threat to themselves on 24-hour suicide watch surveillance.

Several of these MPs expected to take their own lives include ex-Home Affairs minister Wong Kan Seng, Minister of State Desmond Lee, Vivian Balakrishnan and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.

This is followed by Transport Minister Lui Tuck Yew, ex-National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan, Minister for Communications Yaacob Ibrahim and also Khaw Boon Wan himself, as a result of the recent Sengkang columbarium oversight.

Khaw’s demand in parliament for self-immolation has caused the Elections Department to update the electoral roll, in preparation for by-elections as and when MPs start passing away.

Singaporeans who heard of Khaw’s self-sacrificial suggestion, said they fully agree and can come up with at least 40 to 50 names from PAP off the top of their heads who should end their own lives unconditionally and immediately.

Qu Zi Sha, a local, said there was no doubt that out of the whole Cabinet, only Finance Minister and overall statesman Tharman Shanmugaratnam can spare his own life: “I believe the first few to go are the Minister in charge of transport and that guy who was responsible for letting Mas Selamat run away.”

“This is followed by a host of others, including but not limited to Seng Han Thong, Lim Swee Say and eventually, Tin Pei Ling.”

“Ya, Tin Pei Ling is not even important enough to be tasked to do anything important, let alone commit lapses.”

“But that’s the point. She should just go. She’s just making up the numbers.”

Nothing to see lah.............KNN, pay them good money to waste time on how to manage a town council? Are you guys kidding me?
Should spend time instead on national issues like CPF and Medishield and Unemployment and Healthcare, as these are the single most important matters that affect all the population of Singapore, past, present and future.

Low Thia Khiang Jabs At Khaw Boon Wan's Off The Shelf Accounting Software

At around 0:24, Low Thia Khiang say: "... taking the advice of the Minister for National Development start shopping for an off the shelf accounting software ..."

Here, this is video that Khaw starts to fumble and starts equating the town council software to that of a off the shelf accounting software.
