After waiting for more than a month, Mr Goh has finally replied on 6 November 2008:
“”MAS has to be measured in its actions and statements because what it does has long-term implications on the confidence of investors in Singapore. To be fair and transparent to everyone, MAS has to communicate to all investors at the same time through public press statements. Hence, MAS cannot reply to any particular group of individuals or individuals who write to MAS on what it intends to do.“
