  1. I think it is a big mistake for PAP not giving Mr. Siew the second term of NMP. Now all the gates are open and I think we would get to see Mr. Siew's true color and talent. He is always enlighterning, rational and good with words. I enjoy reading his blog very much. I wish he allows Anonymous's comments.

  2. I thot those who had been compensated are very lucky.

    HK was able to get FIs to compensate the victims bec SFC was negot. with them. They know SFC has the power ......Even 60% SFC was still not happy.

    Now who want to compensate the victims, since the penalty is just to ban from selling. Why don't save the money and be banned?

    I may be wrong, and I hope it is wrong.

  3. I totally agree with his views. I accepted slightly more than 20per cent of my total investment from FI. I would not have accepted had I known that some of their staff did not attend the necessary training. Since the RM who sold me the product probably did not attend the training (judging from the way she described the product)I should have held out for more. I support those who are going the legal route. If they win, at least some wrongs will be righted.

  4. Can we request MAS to reveal all the names of FIs officers,
    including the RMs who clearly committed errors and breached the
    FFA so that individual cases can
    be dealt fairly in the legal process. We don't understand
    why MAS has to hide this information unless they want to
    protect the FIs interest from the
    start.Otherwise MAS won't say FIs
    were not liable for their
    mistakes. Similarly, MAS was not
    at fault and hold no
    responsibility in approving the
    sale of these toxic products to the public.

  5. I regret accepting the FI misery offer now, after reading MAS findings. MAS found so many failings but kept quiet till the offers were accepted, these guys are on the FI side, no doubt helping to protect them at our expense
