Tiagong many dog owners like the Straits Times. They find it very useful

[RiseofAsia]

Already sia suay to the whole world lah.
High pay also cant stop “corruption”.

[Wy:Nox]

Nothing to do with integrity but rather because it cannot be covered up. Making it sounds nice just to win votes?

New PM doing house cleaning as too many papayas got away too loooong

[Alice Alicia]

Integrity?
And Amy Khor receiving free eggs from neighbors?

[Ken]

Many rotten eggs in the system.

[EvertonDiehard]

The Govt could not gloss over or cover up Iswaran's transgressions, but had it downgraded to receiving gifts and not corruption.

In the Ridout Road case, it is inappropriate for Shanmugam to ask a deputy secretary for information for his personal use. The minister should have asked his property agent to approach the S'pore Land Authority for properties to rent, and informed the deputy secretary of this separately. Having SM Teo Chee Hean, conduct a review of the Ridout Road affair is also not an independent inquiry.

Politicians who are motivated by money to "serve" are greedy, and there is no limit to greed.

[Ken]

When they said ownself can check ownself, you know something not right.

[Ola]

PAP is BAD Role Model for this country teaching Greed and 5Cs ( Cash, condo . . .)

Many Foreigners like Jac Lau learn bad to lie/ cheat people many times

and even mislead people

[Alice Alicia]

You know something is not right when they have to pay a hefty salary to ministers to prevent them from corrupting.

[EvertonDiehard]

You know something is not right when they have to pay a hefty salary to ministers to prevent them from corrupting.

No PAP politician - except for Iswaran - will be stupid enough to accept bribes when obscene amounts of money are deposited into his/her bank account every month for carrying out public administration. That does not make these ministers "honest".  

[EvertonDiehard]

When they said ownself can check ownself, you know something not right.

When Goh Chok Tong declared that S'poreans do not need an Opposition to be a check and balance on the Govt as the PAP is more than capable of scrutinising themselves, he was actually saying that the MIW wants absolute power, even though power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. 

[Gstalk]

Integrity?

Ownself reward ownself with the highest salary in the whole universe

Iswaran's conviction shows that a cover up was not possible on this occasion.

A cover up was not possible in Iswaran's case. That's all I am saying.

Throwing obscene amounts of money at S'porean politicians to deter then from stealing public funds is merely feeding the chickens from the coop to the foxes, instead of the foxes having to break into the enclosure to eat those same chickens. Offering financial incentives to reduce corruption suggests that underlying corruption remains. The crucial factors are who benefits from such payments and the mechanisms in place to prevent abuse.

if it is independent, then such things shouldn't be done in paleement.

[Harry Lee]

Wonder who blew the whistle on him?
