One of the main Goal for Temasek is to look at the well being of
Asia economies. Its rationale is that if the General Asia economies
improved. Singapore as a small country will benefit from its
growth. As such provide capital resources to regional
infrasturcture investment. This is a general macro mgt.
But i see no benefit thru micro loan in China as these are micro
business which Its elected institution are better suit to faciliate
such a move. I don't see how Temasek could measure the gain i just
think it is a pin drop in the ocean.
I mention Pakistan govt because it is at risk of becoming a
fail state and its repercusion are much wider in terms of
stabilities and the spread of Sharia Law into SEA.
I just think that Temasek should reposition its posture as
its goal of economics growth is not enough it has the
resources to dealt against the spread of extremist in the
region. And the one things is to improve the livelyhood of
pakistanis and prevent it to fail.
