Why Only FAP Traitor TCs Allowed to Deal with Kakis While WP Are Not? Familee Law?
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
COMMON PRACTICE FOR TOWN COUNCILS TO DEAL WITH RELATED COMPANIES Post date: 11 Feb 2015 - 10:36am  The Auditor-General's report into the AHPETC found that one of the areas of concern was that there appeared to be a mismanagement of conflicts of interests. In particular, the AGO pointed out that there was a $25.9 million contract between the town council and its managing agent. However 4 senior town council officers held positions in that managing agent, SM Solutions & Services (FMSS). In some instances, these four had approved and verified work done by FMSS for AHPTEC. While the AGO raised this as a concern, it has been pointed out that such practices is not uncommon. For example, it is common for supporters or members of political parties such as PAP and WP to be appointed to town council postilions or work closely with managing agents. A PAP example is MR Ho Thian Poh who is the secretary of the Jurong Town Council but also the managing director of the managing agent Esmaco Township Management. The only difference between this and the WP conflict of interest is that WP did not properly disclose this conflict of interest or have checks in place to manage it. This means that at WP, some individuals in charge of both AHPTEC and FMSS operations could issue an invoice from one company and approve payment for it from the other company. There was no need in some instances for a second oversight and this was a point of concern despite there not being any evidence of wrongdoing yet. In fact, the mere relationship has already been discussed as not a problem as MND minister Khaw Boon Wan explained during the debate on the relationship between AIM and the PAP: “The [Town Councils] Act by design does not prohibit transactions between the TC and party-related entities or persons… TCs run by MPs from all political parties have at one time or another appointed party supporters or former candidates to provide services to the TCs they run.” – Khaw Boon Wan, 13 May 2013.
