More NEPOTISM in Singapore -- S R Nathan's Daughter Appointed Supreme Court CEO

[LadyArwen]

Jutika Ramanathan? She used to be the head of Registry of Companies and Businesses.
Then they pulled the professional accounting body under the umbrella of ROC and call it ACRA.
Essentially she covered both the ROC and the accounting body's regulation.

But that was obviously too small a job for her, hence the present CEO of Supreme Court... god knows what it means

A few questions...

1. Why does the Supreme Court suddenly need a CEO? Why didn't it need one before? What's her duties and job scope? So is she in charge or is the CJ the boss?

2. Is she the best qualified person for the job? Were others considered? Were others even aware that such a job existed or was going to be created? Do you need to be trained in the law or practice as a lawyer to be considered for this appointment?

3. Why wasn't it mentioned that she was the ex President's daughter?

At least she is not related to FamiLEE. 李

She's related to the traitor that work as a what during WW2 for the Japanese?
And what was Harry working as for the Japanese?
Wouldn't that make her as Lee as other Lees because of the same heritage?

This is what I want to know too! Except point 3. That's not really important to me...

Maybe they learned it is not a good idea. Remember when new dean took over Faculty of Law and it was mentioned he's TT's son-in-law?

Nothing more scary than being the slave of Familee, totally no soul left to speak of. All these is not about meritocracy as PAP wanted us to believe. All these decades, we see how connection can made a person high - Ng Eng Hen's wife the CEO of KK hospital? Ho Jin sister head of MOE? Temasek and GLC all the familee members? and now the CEO of supreme court daughter of Nathan. There are more which will be xposed slowly. Corruption at its first step before it slowly penetrate deeper into our lives - AIM is the tip of an iceberge.

Let's see if the PE voters have the courage to give the corrupt FAP Traitors a Punggol Slap tomorrow!

The position of Chief Executive is new. As Chief Executive, Ms Ramanathan will oversee the administration and operations of the Supreme Court and will report to the Chief Justice in this regard. The principal functions and responsibilities of the Chief Executive shall include those of the "Accounting Officer" and the Permanent Secretary-equivalent for the Supreme Court
WITH A NEW POST OF CEO BEING CREATED FOR THE SINGAPORE SUPREME COURTS, IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS BEING PRIVATISED.
LIKE ALL PRIVATIZATION. MEANS THAT IT WOULD BECOME A PROFIT CENTER.
THIS IS MEANS THAT IT MUST GENERATE SUFFICIENT SURPLUS AFTER PAYING FOR ALL THE COURT COSTS EG JUDGES'PAY AND RENTALS ETC.
IN ORDER TO BE PROFITABLE , THEY EITHER HAVE TO CUT COST EG JUDGES'PAY, IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY OR INCREASE INCOME.
THE SUREST AND EASIEST WAY IS TO INCREASE INCOME AND THIS CAN ONLY COME ABOUT WITH HIGH FINES IMPOSED.
AFTER ALL, THE MINISTERS WOULD ALWAYS SAY THAT THIS IS AFFORDABLE AND THAT MEANS THAT THE GENERAL PUBLIC CAN AFFORD TO PAY MORE AND HIGHER FINES.

KNN,

I thot not bad, out of the blue this lady take over at the sup ct. but now turn out she prata's daughter.

But come on guys, you want to go by race, the urines are in all the top positions, thats already racist.

This u can allege as nepotism.

Nepotism and racism are two different things,

v disappointed, why cant we get any truth out of the state abt wat is gg on?

There should be a complete clear out of all these skeletons in the closet.

Sorry Brandon, I dont know any other family connections.

Its very upsetting to know about all these nonsense, thanks for flagging up though.

That I remember, but if we were to think it this way:


If MSM starts to announce that she is Nathan's daughter before they even go on to touch on other points, the general public would have rejected her straight for the post, whether she is qualified or not, no? Hence, based on the position and the necessity of it, it would be better for the public to decide if there's really a need for this position, and if yes, who is qualified to take up the job. Since one bro here mentioned that she was formally in charged of small positions, I'm sure that there will be noises made on the basis that she is not qualified. If point 1 and 2 can convince to the general public that (a) there's no such need for this position and (b) based on her past appointments, she is not the most qualified person to hold the job if it's really a neccesity, it doesn't matter to me who she is. Even if she's chinese and related to LEE.
