Excerpts from ST free story:
But in Mr Toh's case, the
tribunals recommended nothing stronger than a reprimand and censure
after he was cleared of fraud and corruption, but found to have
failed to properly declare his financial status and assets between
2004 and 2005.
Recommended a reprimand and censure after he was cleared of fraud
and corruption.
For failing to declare his financial status and assets between 2004
and 2005, he was demoted and fined 2 months salaries.
It was a procurement scandal. That's where the money is. He cannot
run away from scrutiny just by denying any wrong doing. He's put in
charge of the procurement. If the system cannot be beaten by
anyone, why put him in charge? If he's clean but his staff is not,
he still has to face the consequences.
