LEE HSIEN YANG LOST DEFAMATION LAWSUIT AGAINST SHANMUGAM & VIVIAN, MUST PAY DAMAGES

In a recent development, the High Court has granted default judgment in favor of ministers K. Shanmugam and Vivian Balakrishnan against Mr. Lee Hsien Yang.

The amount of damages to be paid will be assessed at another hearing, according to The Straits Times.

This comes after Mr. Lee failed to respond to defamation suits filed by the ministers regarding Facebook comments he made about their rental of state bungalows in Ridout Road.

The case centers around allegations of corruption and preferential treatment, with Mr. Lee refusing to retract his statement posted on a July 23 Facebook post despite a letter of demand from the ministers.

The Defamation Suit

Mr. Lee’s Facebook comments accused the ministers of corrupt conduct and personal gain through preferential treatment from the Singapore Land Authority.

The amount of damages is yet to be assessed, but the court has granted an injunction preventing Mr. Lee from further disseminating false allegations.

Justice Goh noted Mr. Lee’s persistent references to the Facebook post and his reluctance to take it down. The court observed that the post accused the ministers of leasing state-owned mansions for personal gain, contributing to the need for legal intervention.

The ministers filed separate defamation suits in August, and due to Mr. Lee being outside Singapore, court papers were served via Facebook messenger in September.

Justice Goh Yi Han granted default judgment in favour of the two ministers as well as granting an injunction to restrain Lee from publishing any more defamatory allegations, after the latter had failed to respond to the defamation suits against him.

Recap

Law and Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam and Foreign Affairs Minister Vivian Balakrishnan have taken a decisive step against Lee Hsien Yang, accusing him of defamation. The dispute revolves around false allegations made by Mr. Lee concerning Ridout Road, which Lee has since been issued with a POFMA order.

Ministers Responded with Legal Action

On 27th July, Lee Hsien Yang received a POFMA (Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act) order for his Facebook post, which contained certain claims about Ridout Road. The ministers, Shanmugam and Balakrishnan, assert that the statements made by Mr. Lee are false and defamatory.

Mr. Lee accused the ministers of acting corruptly for personal gain by allegedly receiving preferential treatment from the Singapore Land Authority (SLA). According to him, the SLA allowed the ministers to fell trees illegally without proper approval and that the SLA paid for renovations the 26 and 31 Ridout Road properties rented by the ministers.

In response to these serious accusations, K Shanmugam and Vivian Balakrishnan decided to take legal action against Lee Hsien Yang. On 27th July, they sent lawyers’ letters to Mr. Lee, demanding an apology, withdrawal of the allegations, and payment of damages, which will be donated to charity. The ministers have asserted that the allegations are entirely false and damaging to their reputation and integrity.

Joint statement by K. Shanmugam and Vivian Balakrishnan

[Defamatory statements by Lee Hsien Yang]

Minister Shanmugam/Vivian and I have sent lawyers’ letters to Lee Hsien Yang for defaming us.

Lee Hsien Yang has accused us of acting corruptly and for personal gain by having Singapore Land Authority give us preferential treatment by illegally felling trees without approval, and also having the SLA pay for renovations to 26 and 31 Ridout Road. These allegations are false.

We have asked him to apologise, withdraw his allegations and pay damages, which we will donate to charity.

If he does not do so, we will sue him.

POFMA direction previously issued to Lee Hsien Yang

Issuance of Correction Direction under the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act to Lee Hsien Yang

On 23 July 2023, Mr Lee Hsien Yang published a post on his Facebook page, which made untrue statements that:

a) The State paid for the renovations to 26 Ridout Road and 31 Ridout Road because the properties were leased by Ministers K Shanmugam and Vivian Balakrishnan.

b) Trees at 26 Ridout Road and 31 Ridout Road were allowed to be felled because the properties were leased by Ministers Shanmugam and Balakrishnan.

c) SPH Media Trust fraudulently inflated its circulation numbers.

The Minister for Culture, Community and Youth and Second Minister for Law Edwin Tong has instructed for a Correction Direction, under the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act (POFMA), to be issued to Mr Lee Hsien Yang. Mr Lee Hsien Yang will be required to carry the correction notice, stating that the Facebook post contains false statements of fact.

Clarifications on the False Statements

Firstly, Mr Lee Hsien Yang made an untrue statement that the State paid for the renovations to 26 Ridout Road and 31 Ridout Road because the properties were leased by Ministers Shanmugam and Balakrishnan. The identity of the tenants had no bearing on the decision on the works to be carried out on the properties. The post
omits important information that the works done were in keeping with the Singapore Land Authority’s (SLA) practice, and were assessed to be necessary in the circumstances, as explained by Second Minister for Law Edwin Tong in Parliament on 3 July 2023.

a) SLA invests a significant amount in maintaining conserved properties, which include 26 Ridout Road and 31 Ridout Road. SLA has spent similar, or even larger, amounts on other Black and White bungalows, consistent with conservation requirements (see Factually article in paragraph 6).

b) Most of the costs incurred for 26 Ridout Road and 31 Ridout Road were for works that external consultants had determined to be necessary, in light of the condition of the properties and to comply with the relevant conservation requirements. The remaining costs were incurred as part of the usual works done before the
commencement of a tenancy to ensure that the property is habitable.

Secondly, Mr Lee Hsien Yang made the statement that the trees at 26 Ridout Road and 31 Ridout Road were allowed to be felled because the properties were leased by Ministers Shanmugam and Balakrishnan. This is untrue. The identity of the tenants had no bearing on the felling of the trees at the properties. All decisions to fell trees with a girth size of more than one metre were made following inspections by independent arborists, and safety issues were identified. Where approval was required for any trees to be felled, such approval was obtained from the National Parks Board (NParks). The reasons for the felling of the trees at both properties have been explained by the Second Minister for Law Edwin Tong in Parliament on 3 July 2023.

Thirdly, Mr Lee Hsien Yang also made the statement that SPH Media Trust fraudulently inflated its circulation numbers. This is untrue. The overstatement of circulation numbers happened when the media business was under SPH Limited – a listed company. This was before SPH Media Trust was incorporated. When SPH Media Trust took over SPH Limited’s media business, it discovered, reported, and investigated the circulation issue. The Government’s funding agreement to build up public service media capabilities was signed with SPH Media Trust, and not SPH Limited. The funding quantum was based on SPH Media Trust’s transformation needs, and not the circulation numbers.

Publication of Correction Notice

As required by the Correction Direction, Mr Lee Hsien Yang must publish correction notice on the said post on his Facebook page. The correction notice will provide a link to the Factually article, which lays out the facts and clarifications on the matter, at the following link: https://www.gov.sg/article/factually250723.

WOMAN STABS STRANGER 100x TO DEATH & CHOPPED HER TO PIECES BECAUSE SHE WAS “CURIOUS”

In a shocking turn of events, a South Korean court has sentenced 23-year-old Jung Yoo-jung to life in prison for the murder of a stranger.

Jung, a self-professed true crime enthusiast, confessed to the crime, revealing a chilling tale of fascination with crime shows, psychopathic tendencies, and a disturbing desire to “try out a murder,” according to the BBC.

Background of the Case

Jung’s disturbing journey began with her exploration of an online tutoring app, where she meticulously selected potential victims, targeting more than 50 individuals, predominantly women.

Her preference for victims who conducted lessons at home set the stage for a horrifying plan that unfolded over several months.

The Murder Plot Unfolds

In May, Jung, posing as the mother of a high school student in need of English lessons, contacted a 26-year-old teacher in Busan.

Dressed in a school uniform she purchased online, Jung gained access to the tutor’s home, launching a frenzied attack that resulted in over 100 stab wounds.

The brutality did not end with the murder. Jung went on to dismember the victim’s body and took a taxi ride to dispose of the remains in a remote parkland.

Her actions, however, were noticed by a vigilant taxi driver who alerted the police, leading to Jung’s subsequent arrest.

Investigation Findings

Despite Jung’s careful planning, her actions were marked by carelessness. Surveillance cameras captured her entering and leaving the crime scene multiple times.

Her online browsing history revealed extensive research on murder techniques, demonstrating a disturbing level of premeditation.

Legal Proceedings

Prosecutors sought the death penalty, emphasizing the gravity of the crime. Jung, in a bid for leniency, claimed mental disorders and hallucinations at the time of the murder. However, the court rejected this plea, citing the careful planning and execution of the crime.

The sentencing judge acknowledged the fear and distrust instigated by the brutal killing, stating that it “spread fear in society that one can become a victim for no reason.” The case has left a lasting impact, prompting reflections on safety and trust in the community.

MAN SAYS BUYING RESALE FLAT IS A NIGHTMARE, EXPENSIVE LIKE KENA “CHOP CARROT”

MAN SAYS BUYING RESALE FLAT IS A NIGHTMARE, EXPENSIVE LIKE KENA “CHOP CARROT”

As I stepped in to the adult working life in Singapore, I was filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation. I had heard so much about this world-class infrastructure our high standard of living. But what I was most interested in was the prospect of finally owning my own home, a Housing and Development Board (HDB) flat, in this city that I had come to love.

I had been saving for years, working tirelessly, dreaming of the day when I could finally afford to buy my own place in Singapore. I had done my research, I knew about the high cost of living, but I was prepared. Or so I thought.

The day I decided to check the HDB prices was a day I will never forget. I logged onto the HDB website, my heart pounding with anticipation. I navigated to the section for resale flat prices and began to scroll through the list. 

My excitement quickly turned into disbelief as I saw the prices listed next to each flat type and town.

The median resale prices for a 3-room flat ranged from $327,500 in Bukit Batok to $715,000 in Bishan. A 4-room flat in Ang Mo Kio was going for $538,000, while the same in Bukit Merah was priced at a staggering $860,000. The prices for 5-room flats were even more astronomical, with a flat in Bishan going for $929,0002.

I felt a lump in my throat as I stared at the screen. These prices were far beyond what I had anticipated. I had known that living in Singapore would be expensive, but I had not expected it to be this high. I felt a sense of despair wash over me. All my dreams of owning my own home seemed to be slipping away.

During my mother time HDB was only 5 figures now its nearing 7 figures.

I spent the next few days in a daze, trying to come to terms with the reality of the situation. I explored other options, like renting, but even the rental prices were high. A 4-room flat in a mature estate could cost between $2,200 and $3,000 per month. Over the course of a year, that adds up to a significant amount.

Despite the shock and disappointment, I refused to give up. I started looking for ways to increase my income, to save more, to make this dream a reality. I took on extra jobs, cut down on unnecessary expenses, and started investing. It was hard, it was exhausting, but I was determined.

I feel like a foreigner in my own home cause i kena chop carrot when buying a HDB that is so expensive

Looking back, I realize that this experience, as difficult as it was, taught me a lot. It taught me about the harsh realities of life, about the importance of planning and preparation, and about the value of hard work and determination. It made me realize that dreams don’t just come true on their own, they require effort, sacrifice, and sometimes, a little bit of struggle.

Today, I am still working towards my dream of owning my own HDB flat in Singapore. The prices are still high, but I am more prepared now. I know what to expect, and I am ready to face the challenges that come my way. And even though the journey is tough, I know that the destination will be worth it. After all, the view is always better after a hard climb. And I am ready for that climb, one step at a time.

MAN EXPECTS TO WORK EFFICIENTLY WITH BROKEN LAPTOP & GOT SCOLDED

MAN EXPECTS TO WORK EFFICIENTLY WITH BROKEN LAPTOP & GOT SCOLDED

I joined a company recently. My manager was very friendly towards me for like the first month. As I am new to the industry she was very helpful in coaching me on the basic procedures. I was very grateful to her and trusted her.

As the day goes by she started to reveal her true character. I was performing well in my job and everyone in the company was praising me. But my manager did not praise me once even then I was not bothered as my responsibility is to complete my job perfectly and get my remuneration on time.

Things got worse, every morning she came to the office she will ignore me but I will greet my colleagues and also will greet her genuinely. She will not reply and I was not affected. She started to monitor me very closely.

She will stand behind my desk, shouting at me in front of everyone despite it being a small blunder. But when another team member does a mistake she will be like tell them nicely and say all will be fine.

My laptop given by my company was defective and it will shut down on its own. I have highlighted this issue to her several times but she turns deaf ears to me. She expects me to reply to her emails and supplier emails promptly. Due to my laptop problem, I couldn’t work efficiently because it keep shutting down.

Other department managers request the new purchase of laptops for their staff, unlike my manager who just ignore our team’s request and ask us to use the same old laptop. We don’t mind using it but it’s laggy and she is pressuring us to submit work on time and be productive.

She dislikes us advising as she thinks she is the only one who knows about everything.

Many staffs working under her tender their resignation as she keeps being unreasonable and taking credit for our work.

Since there was a high turnover, she ask me to do the work of the staff who left.

I just joined I have to cope with my workload and also juggle 3 person’s workload.

I didn’t give up I worked overtime and also worked on Saturday and Sunday to complete all the work.

But still, she scolds me saying I’m not efficient!

After much consideration, I left the company thinking that there would not be a career growth or work love balance here.

GIRL SICK OF HOOK UP CULTURE & ONLINE DATING

GIRL SICK OF HOOK UP CULTURE & ONLINE DATING

A anonymous female took to social media to complain that she is sick of the reality of online dating and the hook up culture that follows after online dating.

Here is what she said

“So many people these days are just looking for casual hook ups and want ‘no strings attached’… Like what does that even mean? It sounds so corny. I think people that are only looking for hookups are shallow who have a hard time being open with themselves and others, I say this because I have seen and heard this for myself from guys that they have trust issues.

It’s hard to find someone on dating apps, even in real life who actually has a personality to them outside of having relations with anyone they just can. I am not satisfied nor okay with being perceived as somebody who will give just give up their body and them self in exchange for nothing.

The amount of guys that ask me if I want to have a ‘smoke and f-’ in their car or even in public is crazy, so out of this I increase my likelihood of getting addicted to nicotine and having relations in public like a wild animal, yeah no I’m good thanks.

I also do not see myself worth a few sticks of cigarettes.

I am not saying you cannot have relations with someone you’re not in a relationship with but I do not like the idea of having relations with someone if there is no romantic or emotional connection, it would feel extremely superficial and as if I am giving up everything on the spot.

I know that I am a human who is unique and has beauty not only on the outside but within for someone to discover and bond with.

I honestly wish more people thought like this about them self, I feel as if so many people these days let their self-esteem and worth get approved by broken guys who see them as nothing more but a fling.”

GUY CALLED WOMAN “MOMMY” WHEN GETTING INTIMATE, SHE STOPPED TALKING TO HIM

I called a woman “mommy” dujring intimacy on Wednesday night and I don’t think she liked it. She hasn’t talked to me since.

honestly I’m pretty embarrassed. I’m a 27yo man for context. We aren’t officially in a relationship, Wednesday was our 4th date and we went to my place after dinner for drinks and a movie.

Well we ended up sleeping together and it was incredible. Honestly it might have been the best I’ve ever had.

I was on edge the whole time and desperately trying to hold back because I’m usually pretty quick and I didn’t want to disappoint.

Well eventually she got on top and started riding me and was talking dirty while pressing her chest into my face.

I think she knew I didn’t have much more left and she said “Are you gonna come for me?” That pushed me over the edge and opened the floodgates.

I accidentally moaned “Yes! Uhhh, MOMMY!”

I’ve never called a woman mommy during moments like this before so I don’t know where it came from but I could tell by the look on her face I don’t think she liked it.

I was super embarrassed and she didn’t stay long after that and hasn’t responded to my texts since.

MAN PAID $8888 PACKAGE FOR VIETNAM WIFE, END UP RUN AWAY

MAN PAID $8888 PACKAGE FOR VIETNAM WIFE, END UP RUN AWAY

A man recently shared his story of how his Vietnam wife ran away months after getting married.

Here is his story:

So I’m already in my 40s and I don’t really have the opportunity to meet anyone since my company has converted to 100% working from home and letting go of the office for cost-saving reasons and my social circle is all full of married people.

So I took the advice of my friend and went to a Vietnam bride agency, they gave me options to choose a package. Where I can meet 1 or 2 of them or several of them in the VIP $8888 package.

I decided to get the best package as I do not want to save money for finding the right partner. The agency flew 5 of them over after I picked them from the catalogue.

Most of them are in their early 20s and seem to be very young, 4 of them could speak mandarin and 1 could not. One of them caught my eye with a sweet smile and I thought that this was going to be a happy ending.

But deep down I know that there is an age gap and I would be a lot of patience.

Ran away

I did not host a grand wedding ceremony as I was not really proud of “buying a bride”, only my closest friends attended the ROM and we started living together.

Initially, there were some cultural differences and I am unable to eat her food except beef pho as I am not much of a vegetable eater. Luckily, she has some friends in Singapore and I thought that she will slowly adjust to Singapore after 2 months but I was so wrong.

So as per usual, I woke up with the smell of breakfast and I went to brush my teeth. But she was not home.

I assumed that she have gone to the supermarket and I continued working my day job from home. But after a few hours, I called her and the phone was off. Then I realised that there was a paper in the kitchen with the word “Sorry”.

I opened Facebook and contacted my wife’s friend who is also a Vietnamese bride.

She replied to me in a voice message in Mandarin saying “She needs time, She says you are too old she is very difficult with me”

I started to get worried and I called the bride agency but they told me that there was nothing they can do.

This is when I started to recall that all the smiles she had with me were quite fake…

She is an adult and she is not missing and there is nothing much I could do. I tried to contact her friend to get her back but my wife simply refused.

After 3 months I filed for an annulment of the marriage, really burn money…
