UNITED Overseas Bank chairman Wee Cho Yaw gave a vintage performance yesterday as he bantered at the annual meeting with shareholders of the bank founded by his father.
And it was an impassioned Mr Wee who moved to set the record straight on a promise he made to the Lien family when he took over the latter's Overseas Union Bank in 2001.
When shareholder Roop Nanwani told Mr Wee that he must not be too cautious about lending money, because that is how a bank makes money, Mr Wee said: 'We must be careful. Cannot give to any Tom and Harry.'
