Singapore has a Useless President: Lim Tean Live @ Hong Lim Park

Peoples Voice organised a live rally yesterday asking the question Where is the Accountability in Our Singapore? Lim Tean was the last of 8 speakers. In his 20 minute address he lambasted the PAP for having zero accountability across the board. Here are some interesting time stamps for those of you who wish to listen to the most pertinent points... 02:36" I tell you, accountability in Singapore, public accountability in Singapore ended the day Goh Chok Tong Tong said in 2015 shortly before the general elections “we are our own checks, don’t fall for the seductive lie that there must be checks and balances”. @ 05:15 - Gan Kim Yong cannot forever say that he is not responsible for this data breach, another data breach. Under his watch there have been 3 data breaches. The very serious one that happened last year that involved 1.5million people. The HIV leak that was disclosed only this year but was known much earlier, and what we learned yesterday about the unlawful disclosure of the identities of the blood donors. @07:15 - And you know these expensively paid ministers of ours. They like to benchmark themselves to the top 1% earners in society to the top CEO’s. You know if you are the CEO of a listed company, and you perform badly you are soon going to get sacked. By they like, they like that analogy but they never get sacked! Yes they will just say sorry! A public listed company, the CEO will never jus be able to say sorry and get away with it. And this is the society we live in today. @08:37 - It has come to a ridiculous situation where even the Speaker of Parliament becomes their spokesperson. You know I was astounded, astounded last week when Tan Chuan-Jin rounded up the debate on the budget, and he was saying that what a fantastic job the govt was doing on the budget, it wasn’t an election budget alright and this is how Singapore has progressed through the years. Haha @11:33 -And I tell you the second reason why accountability is in such a poor state in our public life today. It is because we have a useless President! @12:38 - Now I am suggesting to her, if she is doing her job properly she would not have allowed the new Auditor General who is the wife of a Senior Minister of State to be appointed. (Applause) Ridiculous!, it was ridiculous listening to Chan Chun Sing in Parliament trying to justify alright. Is it any wonder why 96% of the public, who took part in the poll conducted by The Online Citizen, terry Xu, who always does an amazing job, thought that it was a conflict of interest? @14:10 -And the third reason why accountability, public accountability is almost non-existent in our country, is because we don’t have a Free Press, we do not have the 4th estate as the Americans call it. Our state media are nothing more than propaganda broadsheets for the PAP
