Describing the entire thing as “xia suay” or “disgraceful”, Mr Chan said, “We embarrass ourselves, disgraceful, we disgrace ourselves.”
Mr Chan, you want to know the truth? YOU are the "Xia suay" one. YOU are the disgraceful one. YOU have embarrassed
yourself. And YOU dare to drag the country down with you?
Which other country has a Trade Minister who:
a) never had worked a day in the private sector but who goes round dishing out to self-made millionaires and bankers on how to run businesses?
Talking cock about the need for diversification etc indeed. Even uncles and aunties know how to spilt their FDs in different banks.
b) needs to use such simplistic language and local colloquial language to talk to business leaders and treat the whole meeting as a dress rehearsal
for your forthcoming mid-life change career as a standup comedian?
c) it was a serious meeting, top people were taking time off to give you face and to suffer having to hear you talk cock in the session, insulting your
own citizens, and AVOIDING answers. Like the lady who said that MOM officers told her to sack her China workers instead of helping them to return.
Instead, there was talk cock advice about the need to diversify etc. And the lady was taking the minister's advice about NOT sacking workers.
The minister should get serious, and not make fun of the idiots. There are idiots everywhere - from the hoarders to the ministers.
Stop this Holier Than Thou attitude with us.
CCS in a national disgrace.
