U got a malay president. WHAT more do u want ? LOL....
I believe that the only criterion that she met, is being the former Speaker of Parliament, because I doubt that she has the knowledge and experience of a CEO of a major public corporation.
i do not like Singapore to project to the world a President who has a head covering.

Very obvious MAS fucked up the process or someone leaked the plans. They even named the next in line for Ravi. Now what will happen to the supposed heir ?

Did they over estimated their ability to convince Ravi to enter politics ?

She will retire and with her wealth enrich thr local malay community. Maybe mAny will strive to be president in the future
Tsk tsk. Your request shows the Malay mindset. Expect posts to be given to you because unable to earn it via meritocracy. Ravi no matter what people say, I think he atleast earned it

Does she know the approximate amount of the nation's reserves, and what it comprise, and where is it?
Is she able to fully understand the government's annual budget, statement of receipts and disbursements?

In the Singapore Police Force, they have a Commissioner, 3 Deputy Commissioners, 6 to 8 Senior Assistant Commissioners, about a dozen Assistant Commissioners, numerous Deputy Assistant Commissioners.
A whole squad of Superintendents.

Thats why many malays end up being cops, immigration and custom officers. Apart from delivering food.

What about assistant? Or deputy or vice assistant?
It's a meritocracy. If Malays are qualified and work their way up and show they are capable, they will get it.

MAS Chief is not a post where you do charity and give it to someone based on race like Halimah

We need an individual with brains, knowledge and experience, to be in charge of the MAS.
Therefore, a former Speaker of Parliament, regardless of ethnic background, may not qualify.
