Ody_2004 Turbocharged August 5, 2019 Share August 5, 2019 Thanks for this information.

Atonchia Supersonic August 5, 2019 Share August 5, 2019 Pple have one extradetion bill, demo non stop.. even civil servants. We have it bad? Blame ourselves lor The bill is the last straw, the trigger point. Can see a lot of pent up frustration from the locals. Think the core built up is quality of life due to accommodation. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinosaur33 3rd Gear August 5, 2019 Share August 5, 2019 (edited) ð¤£ð¤£ our scholars are the very product and beneficiaries of the system.. some would say a system by, of, for these very scholars. They were given fat fat jobs from start to end that sometimes make people wonder what makes them qualified .. quite different from the ground pounders. Although I've a differing opinion. I would like to think that our some of our scholar are quite smart in coming out with government policies. So much so that the government become too power while ordinary people suffer and grind like hell. I would like to think that although the government has made efforts to allow some of these scholars to interact and mix with ordinary people, these scholars also need to under the implication and the restriction is create that will have an impact on the bigger part of the society. Instead, what I would like to suggest is to get these scholars to work at the lower level of the hierarchy of the society, so that they will come out with ideas and solution that will help pur companies instead of helping the government to become too big and powerful. When you mixed power and intellectual intelligence, what you get is a dangerous cocktails of alcohol that will make everyone work even harder Edited August 5, 2019 by Dinosaur33 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windwaver Turbocharged August 6, 2019 Share August 6, 2019 2 decades ago, they screwed up all the local technology folks by bringing in tons of sub par IT people. I can't believe they are doing it again. They never see it is it? Why they can't find good local tech people? This is what happened long ago. We have local talents that can do medicine degrees going into computing 2 decades ago, mind you, it was really hard getting into computing school (all the straight As students). Problem is, people were forced out of the industry and over the years, there were very little locals doing it. Now, it's so FREAKING easy to get into computing school that I think they might as well close it. Now, they are repeating the same thing all over 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nagarajan Balajee, 36, who had worked at Stanchart for 15 years, took this action in September last year because he was trying to stop an impending retrenchment exercise — one where he had been asked to identify the employees who were to get the axe. The court heard that the Indian national was stressed at the prospect of having to retrench his fellow employees, several of whom had pleaded with him to be able to keep their jobs. Nagarajan, who was head of financial and management reporting (digital banking), had tried to persuade his line manager, Mr Farid Ferdous Howladar, to discontinue the retrenchment exercise, but to no If only kanna fine may not send the right message Edited August 10, 2019 by Sdf4786k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sdf4786k Twincharged August 10, 2019 Share August 10, 2019 Interestingly the misused of computer act did not kick in Mr Farid told him that it was a necessary cost-cutting measure and assured him that Stanchart had measures to help retrenched employees find new jobs. Then on Sept 27 last year, Nagarajan prepared an article titled “Is Standard Chartered Bank failing in its Digital Transformation agenda?”, and sent it anonymously to Mr Aalishaan Zaidi, the global head of digital banking, in a desperate bid to change his mind. In the email, Nagarajan tried to extort S$500,000 from Mr Viswanathan Ramachandran, the group head of retail banking, by threatening to publish the article on social media unless he agreed to pay the sum by 11am the next day. To render his threat more credible, he attached a PDF file containing the article, as well as photographs of two confidential Stanchart audit reports in the email. Mr Aalishaan panicked upon realising that the email attachments contained genuine information that was meant only for internal circulation, and alerted the bank’s management to the email. Mr Aalishaan made a police report at about 7pm that night. This sparked an extensive investigation that saw the police convening a case conference with the Stanchart management, compiling a list of employees who had been or were at risk of retrenchment, and conducting background checks on them. Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Etsuko Lim said that the investigation even employed the help of Google, which helped to “conduct screenings”. These steps led the police to the wrong suspect, because Nagarajan could not be traced through an IP address since he had used his mobile phone to email Mr Aalishaan, which used a SIM card belonging to a Stanchart-issued mobile phone an employee had misplaced. The mobile connections rendered the connecting IP addresses volatile, the DPP said. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
