Boom!

"People who abuse court processes by filing unmeritorious claims to oppress others and extort a settlement would be in contempt of court, said the Ministry of Law (MinLaw)."

When is GE going to be called?

Lawrence Wong said that no decision has been made yet, but given all that's going on in local politics the options for PAP are few.

In fact, probably for the first time ever the government has pretty much no choice at all and in these unique circumstances it could very well be an election that shakes up local politics more than it usually would, as both sides can win and lose big.

As I explain here (this one's premium):

Word has reached me that Raymond Ng is actually going around threatening people with lawsuits for sharing the Rice Media article from 2021 reporting on his Vendshare scheme.

He is trying to coerce people into mediation, through which he is likely going to demand money.

Don't give in to any threats, just file a report with SPF.

Warren Buffett's right-hand man, Charlie Munger, once said that the surest way to get what you want is to deserve what you want.

It seems to me that those losing sleep over Trump's incoming second presidency, may be well aware they have not earned the benefits of their alliance (or trade) with America, and are anxious about getting the belated bill for it.

Singapore, however, has no reason for such concerns.

Hi guys, it's time for a break from political dramas and look at something more people can relate to - housing.

HDB released the latest resale price data, detailing the median transacted prices by town, revealing the most and least affordable areas.

While we do know that average prices continue going up, the situation isn't quite so uniform across the city.

Not only a comparable amount of money can buy you something completely different depending on the location but also the pace of change in prices varies greatly - with some areas even reporting declines compared to 2023 (though any outliers should be taken with a pinch of salt).

Also, HDB also announced a huge release of 10,000+ apartments coming in February, with the largest combined BTO and SBF exercise ever.
