Singapore's Frenemy


This guy has a huge appetite, the confidence and long term thinking to give us a lot of trouble.

Good luck to those of you who take his bait. Given their profligacy, it is a matter of time he run into some financial spot. Sure our own billionaire Peter Lim has also gone into business with him, but when Mr. Lim is out many clueless Singaporeans would still be in for some royal roasting. Whenever he runs out of money or simply want more, he will change the rules on you.

Lest people forget, he was the one who had a brush with law over some firearm issue. He got away as he is royalty. If the federal government is too loose with him, his security detail will grow into a private security force. This guy must be kept in check but he is going to get fabulously rich. He will be a problem to us if we ever show any weakness. I hope our ministers are up to dealing with him. I bet to him, Singapore ought to be part of Johor because that is in the history books.

Behind his smiles and hospitality are daggers. We must never give him the chance to show them. Meanwhile we try to make it profitable for them and us but never forget how quickly things can go wrong.
