No more can they take the high moral ground on any other issues. They should shred their corporate social responsibilites statements, if they have one to begin with. Compared to HKMA, they are no where.; October 17, 2008 12:24 PM

So we are asking the thieves to audit themselves and what kind of truth can we expect? Now we know why MAS is keeping soooooo very quiet despite the many pleas from the citizens. What a pathetic situation Singapore is getting into. Where is true justice ???; October 17, 2008 9:21 PM

I am not surprised FIDREC will comprise of people with interest and not independant. Maybe MAS staff are just 'puppets' under the advise of these corporate 'giants'.
As they say, this explains why MAS is very silent. Their own people made mistake, how to admit?; October 18, 2008 10:26 AM

The whole thing is truly hillarious. What is more hillarious is to tell the investors to complain to the FI that sold them the products. If that is the right thing to do, then the police should tell a person that has been stabbed to complain to the criminal that stabbed him.; October 18, 2008 12:01 PM

Agree with you whole-heartedly. One of the best analogies I have come across - Police telling a person that has been stabbed to complain to the criminal that stabbed him. The best part is the police then ask the criminal to appoint & pay a person themselves to ensure that the criminal handles the victim's complain honestly while the police take immediate actions to insure the criminal's operations so that they continue to peform their deeds. It is a real comedy.; October 18, 2008 8:45 PM
