Jimmy Ng was a finance and audit person all along, so how did he become the chief information officer of DBS? Does he really know about technology?

No wonder all the engineers don't want to be engineers liao.

LEARNT FROM PAP
 ANY HEALTH MINISTER HAS MEDICAL BACKGROUND

Same la for all our ministers!

Like Japan's cybersecurity minister, who admits he has never used a computer. Seriously, can he handle his role if he doesn't know what is a USB drive?

All the JLBs in the Gov

he may become the scapegoat to resign for the 2 downtime incidents in 2021

As head regardkess of background, he shd jolly b clever smart to source the best IT personnel from the world at large to work for him ....this is not a kucing kurap bank, the best in tbe entite world , can pay millions for top people .

Silly stupid fella...now too late, likely to b sacked

Without sufficient knowledge in ICT, can be "sian" easily by suppliers and 3rd party engineering contractors as well as ICT staff members working under him.

Taking example from the very top. Her background was previously HR director in statboard. Now the very top govt official on IT and cybersecurity.. Go figure 

From Wikipedia:

Quote:Josephine Teo Li Min née Yong is a Singaporean politician who has been serving as Minister for Communications and Information since 2021, and Minister-in-charge of the Cyber Security Agency and Smart Nation Initiative and Second Minister for Home Affairs since 2017.

when the whole of govt IT got hacked n stop working,who then is the scape goat ?

He is 张智霖's uncle leh.

Bumping up this thread. Same as OCBC, the top guy in charge of IT in DBS is non-technical. And what do we expect? The CE of CSA is an ex-signal officer. Don't need to be IT-savvy one.

Are you sure you didn't missed out the word NO?? The recent batch of Health Ministers, all no medical background.

The closest is Ah Khaw, at least started his career with MOH, then to the govt hospital, ie he is from healthcare sector/industry.
