Chris Tan trapped Gerard Ee

My theory is that Christopher Tan trapped the former PTC chairman Gerard Ee into revealing how unsuitable he was in that role. Chris Tan perspective of our transport system could not be more different than this fellow.

Getting Gerard Ee to expose himself must be done after he had completed his stint or they will be irresistible calls for him to be removed. Chris Tan was shrewd.

I wanted to write about this yesterday but delay doing so hoping I could borrow from others decrying him. There wasn't much vitriol against the man because to most public transport commuters this completely out of touch fellow is history.

Imagine he was also charged with leading the committee to review ministerial salaries. The government had in Gerard Ee the safest pair of hands to protect their interest.

Some were spot on to identify him as a Saw Phaik Hwa in disguise. But I think Ms Saw is better than him. He is an accountant with zero imagination who lives in a zero sum world. He is good for explaining why somethings cannot be done and not for finding solutions especially innovative ones.

So this is what I had waited for before blogging about this one.
