Ex MP, taking advantage of the fuck up of the flyer, GOT Himself and his croonies in, FIREs the GM, then lodge police report about the leak of confidentiality.
WHAT AN UTTER HORRENDOUS ABUSE OF POWER.
IS there a NEED for confidentiality ? The world WORLDS knows about the cronysim of our MIWs. What doesn't he TRIES to sue SPH for reporting the news ?
WHY SO SECRETIVE ? YOU already got a LOCALLY BORN GM FIRED, while the CEO of the FLYER an ANG MO FT gets to keep his job, STILL NOT HAPPY ?
Must continue to WACK the GM despite the fact that he have been fired.
This is goddam pathetic.
Singaporeans have lost all of their dignity when the dogs comes biting and barking.

By Derrick A Paulo, TODAY | Posted: 08 January 2009 0957 hrs
SINGAPORE : The Singapore Flyer management has filed a police report after an information leak resulted in a news report on Wednesday on the sudden resignation of its general manager Steven Yeo.

Following his departure this week, TODAY has learnt that a three-man executive committee, comprising former MP Chng Hee Kok, NTUC Club Investments’ ex general manager Shirley Leow and Adval Brand Group managing director Patsy Ong will take the company forward.

The developments come just before a press conference the Flyer intends to hold on Friday, where it hopes to give an indication of its targeted reopening date and its experts will present the back-up solutions it intends to implement to prevent the kind of six-hour wheel stoppage on December 23 from happening again.

But with Mr Yeo leaving immediately - at the request of Flyer’s board of directors - instead of seeing through the full recovery of the stalled wheel, fresh questions are now being asked about the company.

The spokesperson was unable to comment on the decision, out of respect for "the individual's privacy", but said that the company “has the full capabilities to move forward”.

Its new executive committee comprises individuals with strong links to NTUC Club, the leisure and entertainment unit of the labour movement, which manages, among others, two theme parks and the integrated leisure and entertainment complex at Pasir Ris, Downtown East.

Mr Chng used to be NTUC Club CEO, while Ms Ong founded her integrated marketing services company for the tourism industry over a decade ago with an initial partnership with NTUC Club.

It was their appointment, however, that appears to have sparked Mr Yeo’s departure, according to The Straits Times, which obtained a copy of his resignation letter.

The Flyer spokesperson did not want to respond to his comments in the letter, and told TODAY: “We take a very serious view of any illegal breach of confidentiality. We have consulted our lawyers and lodged a police report on the matter.”

She added: “We would like to highlight that measures to strengthen the Singapore Flyer management had already been decided on before the incident on December 23.

“The Singapore Flyer project is a complex one that spanned over two years and different phases of the project required different types of expertise.”

everything they want to step in and with their financial strength and also advantages in "connections", whatever they step in will either kill the other operators of the same trade or make their lives miserable.

No lah. The police report is for leaking info to public on why he is sacked, not the reason to sack him.

Meritocracy mah!....you do not know?

Yet another stupid shit times article written by stupid correspond Derrick Paolo. This article asks more questions than it answers. Unfortunately, Makapaaa, u are also missing the crucial questions.
1) Singapore Flyer is a private limited company. Since when does a 3 person executive committee start running it? In fact, Mr. Bollen is the CEO, what happened to him?
2) Why are NTUC involved in it, when the Singapore Flyer Pte Ltd is owned 75% by the German company Melchers project Management (MPM) and 25% by Orient and Pacific management (O & P), a shady Bahamian Registered shell company. If Steven Yeo were to be fired, than these 2 companies, thru its CEO Bollen will be the one to order it.
3) Any changes in the senior management of a Pte Ltd company has to be filed annually with the Singapore registrar of companies. So, eventually, the firing of Steven yeo is SUPPOSED to be public knowledge, and not a private matter.
4) If NTUC has purchased a controlling share in the company, they should come out and say so to all their stakeholders, especially, their members.
5) If the Singapore Flyer Pte Ltd is bankrupt, and NTUC members has been appointed by a judge to take over the operations of the company, than that should also be made known.

Read the following but I wonder Shirley is the same Shirley Lee?

The Straits Times, Ex-MP Chng Hee Kok Faces Three Charges Under Companies Act

FORMER Member of Parliament Chng Hee Kok was brought before a district court on three charges under the Companies Act yesterday. Chng, 59, is the chief executive officer of NTUC Club. NTUC Club general manager Shirley Lee Lai Ngoh, 58, who faced three similar charges, was also in court for the brief, 15-minute hearing. Each is accused of failing to declare their stakes in a company that has business dealings with three other companies where they are directors. Chng, a four-term MP from 1985 to 2001, and Lee appeared relaxed after arriving at the Subordinate Courts yesterday at 9am in a black Lexus sedan with their lawyer, Mr Lee Teck Leng. They appeared in court on police summonses, and the charges are not serious enough to warrant bail. Each allegedly failed to disclose their stake in IT company Stoval Technologies to the three companies where they were directors.
