JK wrote of “blatant channelling of employment and contracts to spouses, children and relatives has gone on for decades”. This is a form of corruption known as nepotism and JK mentioned several specific examples.

To this I would add Yeo Wen Xian. Younger Singaporeans may not be familiar with this name. She is the daughter of Yeo Cheow Tong, one time Communication Minister. In 2003, before she entered her final year in a US university, she was recruited by JP Morgan for a massive salary of $300,000 (I stand corrected on this sum, but it was definitely an eye-popping payscale). No doubt it was a coincidence that in the same year, JP Morgan received a contract for Singapore's Airport Logistics Park.

I remember this rumors very well
That’s why in 2006 or 2007, Yeo was quietly asked to step down
There was no official explanation why he was not included in the cabinet reshuffle 
Very pitiful, seeing him as a backbencher the next few years
There was also NO official statement or explanation why Ahmad Matter, Lee Yock Suan, Wing Kan Seng, Ibrahim Yaacob were abruptly relieved of their ministerial posts
