NOL run into the ground by PAP scholar Generals, now being sold to French. WTF

[Papsmearer]

Just to correct your misconception. They dont have good systems, hence the purchase of APL for their systems

The theory behind APL purchase was a sound one. But they did not do enough due diligence. They forgot APL ships are US flagged and therefore have to abide by US labour and union regulations. Impossible to make money under those conditions. But in any case, Flemming is not to blame as APL was purchased before he got there.

 

[Papsmearer]

If Flemming can't do it, you think David lim could ? TH is more of old boys network then a profitable outfitoutfit.

This is how corrupted the PAP is. GCT should have been screaming bloody blue murder. But he just take his SM $million salary from 2004 to 2011 and jiak liao bee. Why the fuck was he not put back into NOL to be Chairman? After all, he actually has real shipping experience. Instead, you got Cheng Wai Keung (a garment business owner) and then after him, Gay Loong's cousin Kwa Chong Seng. And between them, they installed fucktards like former minister David Lim (who previously ran the disaster other wise known as Suzhou Industrial Park) and then installed General Ng, former Arty officer to be CEO. Even after seeing all these stupid appointments, wooden should have at least open his mouth and criticize them. What can the PAP and Lees do to him? Call him a wife beater? Call him an alchoholic? Say he rape little boys? No, he just took his money and tiam tiam shut up. This is PAP meritocracy?

Singapore will be the first country to squander their sovereign funds on bad investments and go bankrupt instead of welfare for those born in SG.

 

[enterprise2]

Lots of million $ ministars in NOL. Starting with Lau Goh and the Lims (Chee On, Boon Heng and David..etc). They r all responsible for bringing NOL to this state. It's no difference with all the other GLCs. ST is struggling and even SIA is floundering. Worse got to be SMRT! Anyway, important thing is none of the ministars r struggling. No need to consider downgrading to HDB and such!

beginning of THE END

 

[borom]

Again nobody in the holding company (that appoints the top management) held accountable.

This time they cannot even say its long term investment(the excuse they give for billion losses in failed banks).
How many of the 70% even know about NOL or ABC Learning ?

 

[winnipegjets]

F&N, NOL, what next ?

There are not many things left to sell ...maybe Ho Jinx? For her, we have to pay billions for someone to take her away.

How many billions will Temasek lose in China? China doesn't have enough dough to save all its banks, some will have to go and they are the ones Temasek put big bucks on.

From my memory, APL was turning a decent profit before they were bought over.

70% voted for it because the traitor dogs WP never bring these matters up in parliament and many more like it. If they keep whacking PAP during their 5 years in the PArliament, they would have opened a lot more eyes and maybe we would not have the 70% idiots voting today.

You don't just lose the knowledge. Trust me when I tell you the old NOL group are close knit and even the shipping fraternity is close. Wooden is still keeping in touch with his old shipping buddies, both NOL and in other countries, whether its thru golf or other things. He knows what is going on. He does not have to be CEO, but he can appoint a competent CEO who really knows the shipping business. And more importantly, if he was Chairman, he can protect and run interference for the CEO from the parent company Temask. Temasek requires that all the CEOs kiss their ass and por lumpar for them. Jacobs refuse to do that. That is one of the reason he was ousted.
