CNBC : Singapore Faces Growing Pains as Setbacks Pile Up

CNBC : Singapore Faces Growing Pains as Setbacks Pile Up

[Commentary : Well-written article that captures the grouses of Singaporeans. I will not call it growing pains but instead "Singapore Experiences Hubris and Arrogance of the PAP as Setbacks Pile Up".
The article is also not totally accurate with the comments that the floods occured in the financial district, when it actually happened mainly in Orchard Road. "The financial district has been hit by flash floods up to ankle level, threatening to damage the Louboutin and Gucci shoes favored by many bankers."


What is disconcerting is the comment, if true, that the news of the CPIB investigations had to wait for a tabloid Chinese newspaper to discover and then the MHA admit to it. I wonder how much more dirt is around just waiting to be dug up?]
