hahaha....my idol taking a swipe at LSH......now hdb/gahmen is an angel becos LSH is involved......

This is why LSH gets into trouble. He picks a case where no sane person will consider appropriate to blame the govt. There are many people like this chap who due to bad luck or poor judgement have fallen into bad times. They plead for help and compassion but don't demand anything.
This is not even a FT issue. Wives have left hubbies in bad times and these things will continue to occur.
It does explain why holding the local record for having the most advanced cache of high valued educational qualifications, its proper application still escapes him.

Billy (not his real name) is a 41 year old Singaporean male, who married a foreign spouse. After marrying him, she obtained permanent residency (PR) status.

Subsequently, she left Singapore on a flight to Los Angeles in 2007, and has not been contactable since. Her PR status has also lapsed.

As Billy has not been able to earn enough due to business failure to pay for his HDB 3-room resale flat mortgage, he has been served with a Notice of Vesting & To Take Possession.

The compulsory acquisition compensation at 90 per cent of valuation is $229,000.

However, according to Billy, the valuation for his flat is about $330,000, excluding cash-over-valuation (COV).

Since his wife is a joint tenant of the flat, he is unable to sell or rent out his flat. She did not contribute a single cent for the flat or the household expenses.

Despite numerous communications and appeals to the HDB, Legal Aid Bureau and his Member of Parliament (MP), his flat will now be repossessed on 16 May, as per the HDB’s final communication to him on 2 May.

Billy said “What’s the point of everybody keep asking me to appeal, when I always face rejection all the time?”

Because of the low acquisition compensation of $229,000, Billy is unable to buy even the cheapest resale 2-room flat in the open market.

If he can get his flat’s current valuation of about $330,000 plus COV, it is likely that he may be able to buy a resale 2-room flat.

Recently, Billy was denied his right to vote in the Home Improvement Programme (HIP) for his block, as the letter said that: “Please note that you are not eligible to vote because you are served the Notice of Intention due to mortgage arrears.” “However, you will be required to pay the cost of the HIP and LUP works if the poll for the HIP and LUP works are successful.”

hahaha......another top secret from my idol.......if u have seen any cabinet minstar walking around, pse note he is most likely an imposter......

In 5 decades of PAP power only one cabinet minister had the balls to walk around, go to bookshop and do his own thing without fear or favour. Everyone else will only venture around his GCB neighbourhood.

It is your money only if you get to spend it the way you want to. The only way it is your money is when you migrate.

95% os daft Singaporeans still believe that the CPF is their money. If they can't spend it then it is not their money. It's like an idiot who goes window shopping thinking that he owns the things that he sees but cannot use.

hahaha.....what an insightful relevation from my idol.....

I truly disappointed with Chen for not clarifying his true position. He has also done it for the medical admission procedure. Chen did not qualify. He failed the vocational aptitude assessment and this has nothing to do with his high marks. These assessments are now done across the world and many top students do not qualify for medicine because they can't pass the aptitude test. For instance, every years, Oxford and Cambridge hold their medical aptitude assessment in Singapore for student of Asia Pacific. You can get straight As and if you fail this test you can kiss medicine as a vocation goodbye. BMAT is used by Oxbridge and Imperial college and UKCAT for other Universities. For OZ it is called UMAT. These include interviews well.

I wanted to be sure and therefore have checked in regard to his case. He only took up citizenship when he realised that a Taiwanese citizen does not qualify for a Rhodes scholarship. In 1980, he was not eligible for scholarships. Only in 1991 was the Admin service and top tier scholarships opened for PRs.

hahaha......another insightful post but full of bullshits......i mean factual errors.......lol.

Here is the problem. The PAP govt is looking to put someone in place who has tremendous respect of their peers. This allows the PAP to crow about neutrality and objectivity. The first AG was a joke as his share trading adventures put him a difficult position. The second came from Lee and Lee. He was also the master of articulating how a square can be a circle with his now famous Cheng San argument about unauthorised person in a counting centre. Even Pythagoras would be overwhelmed.

hahaha......another amazing relevation.......bet no one is aware that LHY was given a medal for his role in the hotel new world rescue........lol.

(On the underaged pros case)

The pimp had advertised the prostitute age on website as 18 and when meeting clients, the prostitue also told them she was 18/19. Most mentioned they had no reason to doubt this due to her appearance and behaviour. But since ignorance cannot be used as an excuse, the easy way out for most accused is to plead guilty and enter a plea hoping to get just a fine.

So far, no one bring up 1 important issue - Is it a social norm for clients to verify the prostitute IC. Law is build upon ’reasonableness‘. What if the prostitute use someone else IC (just like the JC girl who borrowed her friend's IC to go disco), should these men be guilty as well. I give you another example. Let's say you are 16, you go to cinema and buy a ticket to watch NC16 movie but the cinema deliberately screened a RA movie. Should the law hold you or the operator liable?

I fully agree with Subhas Anandan's assertion that these men are innocent. I hope someone will claim trial and fight to the end as I believe they do stand a chance to clear themselves.

They get very defensive when you tell them things that are different from what is taught.
Nowadays, hard to find a good and kind hearted christian anymore. Many live for themselves. Many preech god, talk about loving everyone but you can see that their daily actions don't match with their christian way of life. Quite hypocrite in certain ways.
Not trying to offend anyone here but this is generally what i experience and observe.
