Anyway, here’s his bio. He’s no kucing kurap FT. Since Singapore wants to become an international financial centre (with policies protecting FIs instead of its citizens’ investments, casinos right next to CBD), Magnus probably is the guy to help internationalise SGX.

Man! The amount of money given to this one person is beyond my logical mind. For that matter, our ministers are not far off that amount. What in the world are they going to do with that amount of money? Even when they passed on and give the money to their children and children’s childen, don’t you think they will be spoiled with all the cash? actually, no need to work, just live and spend. no need to study. for the whole purpose of it is to earn money and live. since they have it, it only makes sense to spend it. If they keep it, it is just as good as no money. Spread the wealth evenly and there will be no poor.
i wish there is a fairer way of compensation. what’s the point of a talented leader without an effective team on the ground?

Den,
greed has no limit, greed has no reason. The more they possess, the more they want to possess.
We should stop seeing these Leeders as talented leaders on what they suppose to do because they are morally corrupted by the Leegime system. The whole system is fart up now. Just treat them as corrupted politicians and gahmen. Let karma do the works because their days are really numbered as evident by their desperate move. The more desperate they are, the faster they will fall as law of karma teach about cause and effect.

Isn’t this or/and more what Ministers are paying themselves in SG? Got to match industry rate so they say. The Godfather must get 100 times more than this thats why he still reigns at 85.

I do agree with you but the scary thing is that when a man hungry and dying for power and wealth is at his desperate end, just imagine what he can do in his last wit, and don’t the whole entire spf and saf commanded by his team of greedy MIW are at his back and call, unless the whole system suddenly turns against him. We know all political history around the world are the same, not even the mightest man can escape nor ignore the karmic effect of nature.

Huh? I’ve lost my job recently in the financial sector & am looking for a job much much less paid than him. So, how come no banks has yet to call me for even an interview?
