Chip Goodyear article in SPH

[scroobal]

Not sure how they came to write that article about Chip Goodyear but it give an erroneous picture of the man.

Chip took over from Brian Glibertson after the latter moved man and mountain to create a monster of a Mining Company called BHP Billiton. Brian, the wheelr dealer that he was fell out with chairman Don Argus and quit. Chip took over.

BHP was not bleeding. Any donkey with a half a brain would know that it was during this time that mining began to surge and good for Chip that he was there to ride it for the next 5 years in such unprecedented times fueled by the Chinese locomotive.

Chip did not create the Chinese locomotive but made sure that he was on it and it was not hard to do as its required lots of mineral resources and dear Brain Gilbertson had virtually cornered the market.

Chip is recognised as a team player, a good organiser, a clear thinker, a consolidator and a people person.

He retired 5 years after and the Chinese locomotive was still going uphill with record pricing for minerals being set. Ever heard of a winning CEO leaving at the age of 50

To write an article of such an extent to protray that he fixed a bleeding company is false when the biggest factor was luck and his ability to maximise it. I am sure Chip will agree as well.

Looks like Chip might have a 2nd chance at luck again unless this recession gets even worse and the bottom falls out. Other than that it has only one direction to go.

HC : Mr Chip, we like to offer you a job in Tamasick

Chip : Err no Thanks, I heard about the small losses from the market.

HC : But hear my offer first before you decide, we will pay you US$3millions per year, no string attached. Just ride out the storm and we will pay you performance bonus when the market turn around.

Chip : What if the losses is real.

HC : You can choose to resign after 3 year, with a great package.

Chip :But what's the catch?

HC : Nothing much, just accept responsibility for the losses and resign.

Chip : Deal!

Chip left BHP due to differences with the management team. It will be interesting to see how he is able to handle the culture at Temasek.

Esp after taking over from HC.

Will his managers cooperate with him? Will he have access to all information, including sensitive information that Singaporeans are not aware of.

Expect Temasick's performance in the next 5 years to be worse than the past 5 years as the global recession turns into a Global Great Depression!!

Chip Goodyear is not the right person to head Temasick. The right person should be Jim Rogers, Robert Kiyosaki, or Peter Schiff.

Goodyear is NOT the right person to head Temasek.

Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore’s Minister Mentor was successful in dealing with the Japanese during their occupation of Singapore, successful in disengaging with Malaysia, and successful in booting the British out of Singapore.

It is ironic, that in the winter of Lee Kuan Yew’s political life and career, that his very own Temasek Holdings has lost billions of dollars, under the supervision of his daughter-in-law, Ho Ching.

Ho Ching has been charged with incompetence over certain of Temasek’s investments, particularly the investment in Merrill Lynch. However, IN LIFE, we cannot assume that Ho Ching is entirely stupid.

In Lee Kuan Yew’s own media-controlled newspaper, The Straits Times, there is the photo of Ho Ching, who is made to sit next to the ‘New CEO’ of Temasek Holdings - Chip Goodyear IV. (Mr. Goodyear is an alumni of Yale University, a member of the Skulls and Bones society, the birthplace of the CIA).

The tar and feathering of Ho Ching, in public with a photo-op was most embarrassing, especially by Asian standards.

The unnecessary shaming of Ho Ching was permitted by Lee Kuan Yew who, one would assume, has absolute control over the city state. One would also assume, that Lee Kuan Yew would have replaced Ho Ching with one of his trusted cronies, as it would be so much easier to control his own person, than an American.

Chip Goodyear

Does anyone really believe that Charles (Chip) Goodyear IV fell off a turnip truck, and just happened to land the job as head of Temasek?

An American, at the control panel of Lee Kuan Yew’s Temasek?

An American who would be privy to the knowledge of the management and assets of Temasek?

Singaporeans are baffled by Lee Kuan Yew’s choice of a replacement for Ho Ching.

Since when did Lee Kuan Yew allow someone else, outside of his own family, a foreigner and an American, to be in charge of his business?

Had the decision already been made for Lee Kuan Yew by the U.S., with the result that the CIA’s boy, Charles Goodyear IV will be in control of Temasek?

Singapore and Lee Kuan Yew may well be “owned” by America, making the city-state something of a 51st state, but without the benefits.

Does anyone wonder why Ho Ching bought the Merrill Lynch shares, just BEFORE Merrill tanked? The entire financial world knew that Merrill was going under. Certainly Ho Ching knew.

Does everyone believe that Ho Ching is totally daft? Or that she is working and thinking on her own with Tamasek’s investments of billions of dollars?

Ho Ching’s bad investments through Temasek, may well have been forced by the U.S., as Singapore’s contribution to the bailout of America - and more bailout money is still needed, Singapore.

Is it “Welcome to Singapore, CIA?”

If you think my remarks are far-fetched, I suggest you check my blog, http://www.johnharding.com, in about 24 hours.

You will be amazed at the documented information regarding Chip Goodyear.

Bro,

For me, I can. All CPF $ taken out.
For Singaporeans, it is more a horror story - like a mini Titanic sinking.

Chip can return to making tyres.

Like they say, often times it's about timing.

Moot question if he makes the cut. But guess the beef here is that an outsider's privy to national reserves.

 

[commoner]

CHiP : "what is the Temasick portfolio?"

AhNeh:" Sori, you no Singaporean, National secret"

CHiP : " How much money can I invest?"

AhNeh : "Reserve top secret"

CHiP : "Where the audit report?"

AhNeh : "Still top secret"

CHiP : "Then what am I supposed to do?"

AhNeh : "Talk to WKS. get a Singapore Citizenship. dump your wife, marry a Lee or simply hump Hole JInx, maybe you can have a look at the books?"

When MPs ask about transparency on the Temasick account. it is veiled in the name of national security, and will they be open their legs to a chao angmo?

Expect Temasick to lose more than 95% of it's portfolio value in the years ahead!

Temasick's financial lost will be more than Bernard Madoff's Ponzi Scheme!!!!!

 

[japarmy]

It looks like Charles Goodyear is going to put Bernie Madoff to shame, and will beat Madoff's loses in no time.

Take a look at this!

Are there two Charles “Chip” Goodyears?

One was born in 1958, and the other in 1933!

They even have the same parents! Can this be true, or is one of them an impostor?

A CIA plant? You tell us, we can’t figure this one out!

Hey - that explains it all. Something happens to this Chip Goodyear, and Temasek can replace him with the other Chip Goodyear - the one who is 75 years old, with the same parents. Some parents - two sons, same name, born 25 years apart.

Why don't you change your name to Chip Goodyear, then if the first two don't make it, they can use you.
