      Exactly. The question is whether NTUC had deliberately omit this information at the point of its release and whether MAS should have released this information at an earlier stage.

    Listening to chee ht, you will think that capital extraction was mentioned in the last parliament session on this deal. The fact is no. This was not mentioned and people like myself, didn't know this.
    This is what goh CT would characterise as politicking...
    I didn't know there was capital extraction or reduction but I still think it is a bad deal. The interests of the policies holders were not mentioned at all in the earlier session.

    [a] One key issue:
    "The lack of transparency regarding these details particularly troubled NCMP Leong Mun Wai."
    [b] Public outcry has been instrumental in terminating the NTUC Income-Allianz partnership --- but what if there had been no public outcry?
    [c] What exactly is the intention of the recently corporatized NTUC Income in fusing with Allianz --- aren't the top management unaware of the implications? and that its so-called social mission (for the working class) can be sacrificed as a result?

  • @LonganLee
    @LonganLee หลายเดือนก่อน +17

    When the decision to discuss the deal was made, before the approval was given for the deal, the mini stars already super defensive and were emotional in their responses. During this period , it only make sense to have disclosed the Key Information the voters or public needed to know but it was not disclosed to them. Mr Leong discovered a serious issue here! Chee denied there was "withholding information" to voters but it was a key information voters should have been given back then for the discussion. If not intentional withholding info, was there UnIntentional withholding? What we need to pursue is was there incompetence by not disclosing that key information back then at the critical time for the public to understand the issue? Who is to be held accountable for this was what PSP leader Leong asked.
    One can withhold unintentionally due to incompetence or negligence too!

    I think representatives from INCOME Insurance should come out and explain the 2 Billion surplus issue. Already when the ALLIANZ indicated their interest to buy the 51% shares, questions arises on what will happen to the non-guaranteed portions of the policies, The Public deserves to know more. The whole saga seems to benefit the NE and the shareholders rather than the general public.

For example, no government officers or official especially those who hold permanent secretary and above should be allowed to be appointed as director/adviser of any statutory board or government related organization including Temasek and GIC for next 5 years after resignation or retirement. And this should include the Presidency candidate. Just look at the recent Presidential Election. It is like asking the Financial Controller of a Company to resign and become the Auditor to the Company. LOL

    Question is, Why is this happening? Something is wrong somewhere. Why is it imperative to believe that a foreign concern is a correct fit for a local "Singapore Brand" needing a financial infusion. The ultimate "Public Interest" reason is rates could/will shoot up making other service providers the excuse to raise rates to the detriment of policy holders.

    The opposition mps lack political acumen. Leung mun wai's second question was very pertinent and you clearly have pap ministers at their throats. Why never go for the jagular veins? If the other opposition mps support this query and pressed on, the pap ministers would have to give a definite answer to that. After that, dont let go. Politics is not a game where if you are winning you show graciousness to the losers. Continue to score points until your opponents are buried 6 feet under. And you dont do this with one person, group coordination is necessary.

    If NE had genuinely wanted to strengthen income financially, then there should not be any plans for capital reduction at all.
    Now, the deal seems to assist NE in divesting their shares in income, using the pretext of finding a strong partner to invest in income. And after the strong partner invested in income, he in turn do a capital reduction and take back what they have invested by buying over NE shares!
