Former SCDF and CNB chiefs arrested

[MMM]

Regardless what is said.


The people who deserve our "sympathy" most is the wives who thought their men were faithful and working hard to give their family a good life, the children who thought their fathers were great men but only to realise that they are unfaithful and probably corrupt? The parents/ family that have been proud of their sons/ brothers. Imagine seeing the headline news everyday and the entire Singapore knows about that. It doesn’t help that the story is only beginning to unfold.

I concur. She nor the men are the innocent parties… The wives and children are. Imagine the shame they carry with them when they go to school or work, through no fault of theirs.

ksi, concern2,


I concur. Like Wat2GO said, let's cut her some slack.

It's not that she was a gold digger or scheming to rip some rich old guy's fortune or something :skeptical: .

I actually feel sorry for her, being in this limelight, its only a matter of time her identity is splashed all over for all to see.

Let's get real, many people do out-of-scope tasks to help their job/career in certain industries. Excessive entertainment sometimes get carried away. Who is to say which party is the instigator ? As ksi said, she could be too weak to resist, could be worried about her job, her target, etc. Dont forget, she just switch company from US coy to Japan coy, so maybe under a lot of pressure, etc.

I am not condoning her actions, nor the men's, but I think she will come off very much worse off from this incident. She has children to take care of as well, so ...... let's cool it.


The key issue here should be what the government do to set a good example from this incident. If they were just having EMA, ah gong will not get involved, but now... to entice with small contracts that they can control ..... these 2 men are toast, imo.

Way2GO:

Morality n ethical issues aside, cut her some slack.
She has suffered gravely too in dis revelation on more than one front - CPIB, public scrutiny n condemnation; privately she has a lot of explaining to do to d father of her 1 yo.
Some in d msm oredi know her identity.
Give her some breathing space, please.
I m more interested in d gahmen play behind dis episode.

:hi5:
I am also interested in the final outcome of the investigations to determine if there are loopholes on power enablement for contracts signing to prevent future occurrences. If the signatory rules can be mitigated and improved, it would make it hard for moment of wrong judgement to occur.

If convicted, I suppose this is a good demonstration of absolute power can end up in corruption and not paying huge salary packages. I am sure both men are superscale wage levels so money is not the concern considering he contract is only $350k.

This is character building process for them. The thing that does not break them makes them stronger. And this is the best time for them to know who their best or better friends are, may not be a bad time to weed out bad ties.

When things not in their span of control and not their fault and clock cannot be turned back, make the most positive learning experiences out of it.

verykiasu2010:

women = woe.men = woe to men

I was told that is the origin for the word 'women', i.e. woe to men!

or u can take a more positive interpretation:
When Adam first set eyes on Eve in all her naked splendour,
he exclaimed: \"Wo, man!\"
:rotflmao:

My BIL also said that...but then he is a 101% MCP...

We, the wo.man is also very important....
\"The Woman that rock the Cradle rule the World \"

:?Really pity the 2 uniform men in this Saga...throw away everything
they build over the years :gloomy:
tell DH see all you can but dont touch or you die not me

Wan Bao is only releasing bits and pieces of info cos of gag order; cannot publish anything without some form of approval. Everybody already know who the woman is but no pic of her. The pic on the forum is not her. It’s people who knows her point her out, not Wan Bao, remember that. This is how our media works. Ah Gong is very serious in weeding out corruption so is digging very deep. May have to wait for a long time before whole story come out as there may be more than meet the eye. This may well be Ah Gong’s opportunity to score points.
