Indeed. If it were not so sad, it would actually be quite funny.
what hit me most was how humiliated they should feel. not just because they have abused public trust, not just because they were caught with their pants down, but because they were both bamboozled by the same vixen! embarassing or what? these guys are Home Team colleagues!
the other ridiculously humiliating thing is that they should be corrupt with respect to some IT deal. When the news first came out, I thought the CNB guy must have been getting big time cut backs from some drug warlord, smuggling millions worth of Class A drugs through our isle. When it said 'money and women' images of high class escorts being at his beck and call came to mind, and how he must have profitted millions from this drug warlord, funding his sports cars and sentosa cove home. but this?!
Two men brought down by one IT woman? for some govt procurement priority? Oh my. What have we come to.
Agree also that all humans are fallible, and whilst it's good that they are loudly made an example of, so that others dare not follow in their steps, we must all watch ourselves. we are all susceptible. all sin is sin. big or small. even cheating on parking coupons (extra 10 mins everyone?) sets a bad example for our children. don't say too soon that you will always hold true to your vows, you are thus above reproach yada yada. pride comes before a fall!
Another thing that came to mind was that such moral laxity is so common in the private sector. sleeping with the boss or anyone who has power is nothing new. and no one bats an eyelid. but because these men are in public service, and funds are taxpayers money, the corruption becomes glaring and unacceptable. private sector folks will just say this is part of business! why shouldn't I give the deal to the woman who pleases me? is the shareholder going to morally police me, if I still turn in record profits? -

I am interested to have a look at the \"pretty gal\" who is so capable to cause the downfall of 2 top guys.
ST Electronics declared is not their executive staff in asia1 news: http://www.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/Singapore/Story/A1Story20120126-324129.html -
OMG! The first true news is out as quote "The Straits Times reported that both men admitted they had improper relationships with the woman in question".
I feel sooooooo sad for their love ones. Especially so during CNY. -
Wanbaoβs reporters are very resourceful. First to break this news and forced govt to issue official press releases and swiftly appointed 2 new heads wef 1 Feb. Even managed to contact her ex-husband and obtained her pics.

New Paper says an ST Electronics executive is helping in the investigation. Where's your boss from? :evil:
Now that ST Electronics has publicly denied that their company is involved in this case, do you think maybe your company is that so heng like what you had thought?? :nailbite:
