Good news, no fleeing of capital and foreign investors!

When news of Heng Swee Kiat’s collapse in a cabinet meeting hit the streets, there must be fear of a fleeing of foreign capital from the island. This rumour or line of thought has been speculated for several decades to frighten the Singaporeans, that stability of a one party, one man govt is the key to Singapore’s success. Now that the one man is no longer around, it is the composition of the one party that matters. And the composition of the one party actually is about a few men countable by the fingers in one hand. And Heng Swee Kiat is one of the fingers, touted as the future PM.

Heng Swee Kiat’s collapse may send fears to some that it is a sign that Singapore may be collapsing or the future is collapsing. So foreigners, those from the first world, would be packing their bags and businesses and running away. There is no fear from those of the third world as Singapore is still too good for them than their third world homeland. They die die will stay.

Nothing happens. No one is running away. Let me offer two possible reasons. The foreigners and their investments did not see anything fearsome to want to run away. Two, there are very few from the first world. Most of the foreign investors and investments are from the third world, where else to run to?

Oh, a third point, Singapore is now quite stable. It is no longer dependable on one man or one party to continue to grow and prosper. The country is stable enough to withstand the loss of the one man or the one party and its constituent key members.
This is the good news. Singapore will not be shaken just because of the loss of one man or one party. Singapore will not be turned into a third world country just because one opposition candidate gets elected into Parliament. No foreign investor will panic just because Chee Soon Juan would to get into Parliament.

Singapore is safe. The govt has done a good job to ensure that the country will continue to prosper with or without one man or one party.  Thank you very much. This is like a corporation not depending on an indispensable CEO and would collapse if the CEO is dead. I think my conclusion is good for Singaporeans. A country with a stable and sound system that would not be shaken and fell like a pack of cards when one man or one key minister suffered a stroke. I don’t think the situation would be different if it was not Heng Swee Kiat but someone else, like Tharman, Chee Hian or Hsien Loong.


The system will continue to run as if nothing had happened. The island would still be here. The property prices would not fall, and no one’s daughter or wife will become foreign maid. Singapore has passed its second durability test.

Tiok. But then hor, the system will continue to run the way which RB doesn't like, as he had already made known many times to all who care to visit his blog.

So is that really good news? It is only good news when Chee Soon Juan had won BB BE, but sadly, to those who wished so and also to Chee, that was not to be.

Anonymous said...

It will be super good news when all the opposition parties agree to merge under WP and accept Low Thia Khiang as their leader, and with Dr Chee Soon Juan as his deputy.

Then there will be a very good chance of opposition candidates, including Dr Chee of course, winning many seats in the next election and maybe to even form the govt, with Low as PM and Dr Chee as DPM. Hurray, if that were to happen, and hope no earthquakes will happen to prevent that from happening.

The future of Spore is still bleak and gloomy. Spore has no resources & depends solely on foreign investments. This means the collapse of Minister Heng isn't going to bodes well here. Heng is the anchor man of Spore future economic reforms & manages the country finance..there is nobody in the present cabinet tat has his capability. If he were to recover, Heng need to take care of his health or become an advisor. If he is handicap or don't survive it will not be good for Spore. This country talent resources is very limited as some had already migrated. Lets pray tat Minister Heng recover from this ordeal.

Anonymous said...

The REAL reason is becoz Ah Heng is not seen as someone special, even though he is rumoured to being chosen & groomed to become the next PM.

He's a nobody ... basically at most another seat warmer like Woody Goh, to occupy the Istana PM office until the Lee grandchildren comes of age to continue the LEEgime.

The only headache for PAPies now is to select another potential seat warmer.

But over medium term, it may be a difficult proposition?

Look at HSK current 2 "deputies", ( if u even want to call them that? )?

Rightfully, if IC "absent" then the 1st "2IC" or 2nd "2IC" can step in or stand in, right?

There is no intention to be rude but since when national economic well being and/ or survival at stake is "masak masak trivial matter"?

How come there is no call or suggestion ( from even anyone ) for the current 2 "deputies" to HSK to take over or cover him in the interim?

Even one NTU academic quoted in the MSM "dragged" in the former "2IC" to botak as a possible interim cover for day to day affairs and botak oversee the strategic part?

Since this new ang moh citizen doesn't have to do NS, he and people like him can do some "national service" by putting inconsiderate and rude local Singaporeans in their place or in hospital if necessary.

If I run onto this ang moh, I'm buying him a beer. If in that particular period I've done better than well, he gets a free fuck session with 2 chicks at Geylang.

As for capital flight, you'll probably find that more loot will come into Singapore now as Panama has been busted. Govts (like the greedy Aussie govt) are trying to squeeze more dough out of people and companies---especially those who have done well and are rich, that a haven like Singapore is going to get even more "popular" with the folks protecting themselves from LEGALIZED THEFT

No intention to offend the current 2 "deputies" or the honourable prince but who ( which AH ) advise the prince to place these 2 "practically zero knowledge in economics etc deputies" under HSK and probably "added to his work load instead of helping him as HSK probably has to painstakingly explain many things to them like teaching kindergarten kids a-b-c" ( though these 2 "deputies" may be experts in their own trained fields of law and translation respectively )?

It is maciam fielding basketball players on the soccer fields or playing them totally out of positions?

Already khaw-peh-ed them many times in the past few years about this issue but noboLEE listened?

Now "emergency" arises even small portfolio like those in the CFE held by HSK even Kee Chiu or Tua Kang cannot have large even feet to step in HSK shoes or large enough heads to wear HSK hat?

So how now?

Previously there was one fairly experienced 2nd FM in current WP GRC but there is such thing called HYSTERESIS in macroeconomics unemployment which could arise due to "human capital decumulation"?

If u invest in a factory or retail space like Taka, u cannot run off because of someone dies. The old man proved a case himself. He started this kind of "fear" as if investing money in Singapore is like speculating up or down. NO. People threw money to do business here, not speculating in stock or S$.

Readers especially younger one must not be misled by this kind of title.

The foreign direct investment by companies was S$1024billions in 2014 (singapore statistics) and this figure is not big comparing to HK FDI S$2500billions end 2015.

Do readers expect foreigner run off in HK when YC Leong gets into illness?
I doubt Soros will short HK dollar for YC Leong. Same no one will short S$ for someone here, not old man and not his prince. Money is not flowing like water. If so, then Singapore stock exchange will have up and down like Shanghai or Heng seng.

Singapore stock exchange is so so 'stable'.

If they can only manage single-digit marks out of 100% then u think they qualified to be in their current position?

And that's just A level u know?

Actually economics expurts need to be damn good at undergraduate level math, Stats, econometrics, intermediate micro/ macro, international economics, labour economics, mathematical economics, behavioural economics, etc etc ?

U think they have such technical knowledge or not, much less actual real world knowledge?

Do you think when US FED Chairman or Vice Chairman or other FED presidents talked financial or economic stuff these two deputies half the time understand what the FED officials talking about?

Can ask these 2 deputies explain what the FED people talked about?

And also explain how those various economic and financial scenarios the FED people talked about worked in the real world?

Anon 12.48pm, can u see what is the problem now and how big the problem sinkieland is facing or not?

No offence to all ( related or otherwise ) people but if u are not trained as a doctor and someone ask u become one u can say no, tiok Bo?

Otherwise if u hold the title of a doctor when not trained as one then u kena asked to operate on the patient then the patient likely cannot make it out of the OT ( operating theatre ), right?

So not fair to the patient mah and everyone concerned right?

People always think they know but when actually try to do then they realise they dunno .....?

In critical areas of life and death at stake or survival at stake, can like that meh?

Don't worry. Tharman can 一脚踢. Tharman can be both DPM and FM.

In fact many many would "kee-chiu" if ever Tharman is being proposed to be next PM.

Anyway, we must remember that......

Do you think I should worry for Singapore?

If the two Deputies in the Finance Ministry is not ready to be Finance Minister;

If PM Lee get a stroke;
then who is ready to be Prime Minister?

Do you think it is better to start grooming at least one Opposition Party to be ready to be government?
So if PAP is not ready to be government because of health problems;
then at least one Opposition Party is ready to be government.

Heng Ah Kit has never been considered for the PM Post.

He is just a Seat-Warmer for the Money-Sucking Ministry.

He only came in in 2011, just slightly over five years ago.

He is not charismatic nor politically attuned.

From how and what he said or not said during the Bukit Buttok Chee-By Erection,
It is very clear that he is not a good political animal at all,
He has not even an iota of political acumen.

Moreover, he is an Engineer, not an Economist nor a Mathematician
Nor a Lawyer in training.

Neither was he an Elitist Paper General who has risen from a Systematic Screening
Upon his leadership qualities, idiosyncrasy, trustworthiness, obedience, faith, loyalty
and ROYALTY .....

He is also not connected in any hidden way with The First Dirty Family;

And so on and so forth ..... more, more, more .....

Heng Swee Keat was Principal Private Secretary to the Late Minister Mentor.
Many believe that he shall be the Next Prime Minister although Chan Chun Sing was rumoured to be the One before HSK.
When HSK was given to head the Finance Ministry and put incharge of the National Conversation, many feel that he eclipses Chan Chun Sing. It must have been quite a challenge to supporters of Both.

Personally, me thinks the Military Faction stands a higher chance as there are lots of Military Men in the Regime. However, base on the Appointments of the Two contenders, Heng Swee Keat stands out and seems more mature and competent.

Now that Heng's health is in the Balance, chances of him becoming the Next Prime Minister, which some suspect to be a seat warmer, is very much dimmed.
Unless therr is another rising star or another favoured protege, there will be less secret and invisible tussles for the Highest Office in Sin.

MND got the 1997 to 1998 AFC, market crashed like shit ......

Then 2003 SARS think this one no nid say liao .....

Then 2004 to present only "bright spot" is build build build lor but economy "never produce any winners" leh ......

But the "jinx" pattern never fail ( and almost like clock work follow him everywhere he goes ) and chun chun 2008 -2009 kena GFC ...... but lucky uncle Sam dropped interest rate like crazy from 5.25% in 2006 to almost zero by 2009 and also printed about more than USD4 trillion plus through QE 1, 2 and 3 so the world economy luckily and quickly rebounded ..... partly oso 2009 PRC came out with RMB 4 trillions fiscal stimulus package. .....

So between 2004 to 2015 like no new capabilities built in the sinkieland's economy except casino and real estate linked economic growth through real estate inflation 1st round between 2005 to 2007 and 2nd round between 2009 to end 2012/ mid 2014 due to uncle Sam ultra low interest rate of almost zero percent and massive QE ( quantitative easing aka money printing lah ) and PRC massive fiscal stimulus spending in 2009 through 2012 .....

So since 2013 the FED "tapered" or reduced the QE3 programme and sinkieland economic growth oso "mirror" the pattern to "taper" off lor .......

So can u see sinkieland's economy between 2009 to 2013 maciam like macro-managed by Uncle Sam aka the FED and also PRC ......

When they turned off the tap ( monetary and fiscal expansion programmes ), sinkieland's economy also "kaput"?

So the economic growth between 2010 to 2013 u think is due to outside factors or the "genius" of sinkieland's economics "czar" aka engineer Limp Chow Khiang?

If Limp can deliver good good HSK needed to work round the clock to try "salvage" the nosediving exports and economy?

In other forums, many netizens khaw-peh "too many deadwoods 了" so "roll eyes" lor .....

Think HSK is a "victim of the times so quite sad" ......

U listen to the video what Botak said at the TTSH's mass prayer and try read between the lines what he said u can know how difficult HSK position was ......

Botak's words were " ......... "

Aiya, think dun say already.

Think of it oso "damn sad and dulan" at the same time ......

But really 佩服 all these "outsiders" sinkies finest sons who try to "survive" in a "insiders" system and do all the heavy lifting for sinkieland?

So from bottom of hearts, really pray for HSK not so much to resume his work but for his own health speedy and full recovery and his personal well being ......

Mb this general analysis ( and perception ) may not be spot on but the general trend could be about there?

Have been pondering over the past few days and trying to "feel the ordeals" HSK been going through

Could it be that HSK's stroke or aneurysm is due to a sudden trauma? Traumatised by something, eg info or data or even by somebody? Because it happened during a cabinet meeting, with many ministers around and also most probably also a lot of info/data prepared for their discussion.

In the First World Country called SIN-GAP-ORE,
Instant Multi-Millionaire Ministers galore.
Installed through a Legalized Corruption Pay System
Passed by Parliament using corrupted thinking and twisted terms,

Using tax-payers hard-earned money to easily fatten own bank accounts
At regular, constant, persistent and obscenely increasing amounts
By the $millions annually without conscience nor shame.
Yet ONLY pay $8 for a Heart-Bypass with excuses lame.

But the poor and destitute wait long long,
Sometimes in terms of months, years and beyond
Even just to get the pathetic medical appointments
In order to get some decent but miserly treatments.

This is a fact of life in SIN-GAP-ORE.
Nobody can deny this, never at all.
This is the greatest SHAME OF SIN-GAP-ORE.
Everybody should know and must so deplore.

For the horrible-cum-shameless boast that we are First Class, of First World,
And the despicable dishonorable son openly says WELFARE is a Dirty Word.
But both such kinds pay themselves wages way above the Highest in the World,
And allocate themselves with Free Medical Benefits in a Class A Ward.

Moreover, the scoundrels give themselves a golden Pension for Life,
Only after serving two terms as Members of Parliament if they survive.
Also the unscrupulous did away with Estate Duties in order to hide
Their immense wealth they secretly en-massed, prolonged, without respite.

There are in fact so many youngish financial advisers, consultants etc, some appear still wet in their ears and fresh out of school or Bational Service guiding ah kongs and ah mas to manage their monies at MRT Station and Shopping Centre and even Market.

I am always amaze by the Many Money Expurts in Sin and feel that it is almost impossible for Sin not to qualify as the Financial Centre of the World with so many Money Expurts in our midst.
