GOVERNMENT’S Explanations
According to the president’s fact-checking site, Factually, the Jan 14 content published on East Asia Forum” speaks claims which are misleading and misleading”.
The East Asia Forum content, according to Factually, erroneously said that the Singapore state “misused the resources and time of the Cabinet, parliament, the police… to seek Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s secret mission against his sisters and move his family house, into a monument to his parents, Mr Lee Kuan Yew, and himself”.
The officers investigations involving Mr Lee Hsien Loong’s family was because a administrative judge found that Mr Lee Hsien Yang and his family, Mrs Lee Suet Fern lied under oath. Also, no decision has been made already on 38 Oxley Road, noted Factually.
The post also falsely claimed that Leader of the Opposition Pritam Singh was prosecuted without foundation, “in pursuit of motives other than proper protection of the law”, said Factually.
According to Factually, the do of Mr Singh before the Committee of Privileges was referred to the Public Prosecutor under the Parliament Act and the prosecutors “decided to choose two charges against Mr Singh”.
The post also erroneously communicated that the prosecutors declined to indict six top executives of Keppel Offshore & Marine and alleged that” there is a total lack of rules or norms requiring political business buyers to declare their financial interests, resources, or conflicts of interest”.
The author of the article- Michael Barr, an interact professor of international relations at Flinders University- suggested there was some impropriety in the reduction of the two expenses S Iswaran, according to Factually.
Factually added that while” Barr is free to express his thoughts from far, he is certainly free to make sweeping false claims”.
The fact-checking page said the state has zero tolerance for fraud.
” Singapore’s management system is built on a basis of integrity and public services, properly established over decades and upheld by successive officials.
” The Singapore state remains steadfast in its commitment to earning and preserving the people’s confidence, including countering those who attempt to weaken it by spreading untruths,” Factually said.
