An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

The new Chairman of Temasek Lim Boon Heng was quoted as follows in the Sunday Times.


"I don't think I'm totally new to this because at NTUC, we have co-operatives...I think the principles are essentially the same. Of course, there are lots of different ways of investing - private equity, cash funds, credit and so on...those are the areas that are newer to me so I now get to learn to understand those principles and how you should consider investing in those areas."

Question: Would any local or foreign bank have hired him for a mid-level position, eg as a Relationship Manager of the UOB Branch in Toa Payoh?

What do you think?
