POPPING GLUCOSAMINE AS PLACEBO

Overall, older glucosamine studies tend to be more positive, perhaps

because of publication bias by industry-funded or industry-affiliated authors. More recent studies tend to be less positive, perhaps because most journals now require the public registration of any clinical trial before it ever commences.

Genting Berhad now has RM$16.25 billion in cash and it has total liabilities of RM$19.6 billion.

Cash generating machine?

The fact that the company has generated RM$2.5 billion in operating cashflow yearly since 2007 is an impressive feat. This year it has generated more than that in the first 6 months of 2010. I love consistent and predictable cashflows from operations more than anything else.

At the last AGM

GENTING SP COO explained to the FLOOR

on the Dividend Payment Authorisation.

It was in the papers.

It was in the TV news, especially Channel News Asia.

I am not GENTING SP's Director and I am nOt paid to do this job.

To satisfy yourself fully, just go to Investor Relations and email your question(s) DIRECTLY.

They will reply your question(s) to your full satisfaction.

In terms of Dividend Payment, you can also email to SGX for their answer.

It was also announced at the recent EGM

GENTING SP will redeem first loan instalment [both principal repayment and interest payment] in 2011, cOming very sOOn.

Check the GENTING SP Balance Sheet

there are billion dollars in CASH.

This item was raised by One PIONEER shareholder at the AGM.

Democracy is about accountability, checks and balance, and about transparency of government

September 25th, 2010 |

Author: Contributions

Premier Wen JiaBao of China

“It is important to guarantee the people’s democratic rights and legitimate rights and interests. We must resolve the problem of excessive concentration of power, create conditions that allow people to criticise and supervise the government….”

– Wen Jiabao Prime Minister of China in 2010

Democracy is about accountability, checks and balance, and about transparency of government.

If it is critical for such a big country as China – with her large population – is it not even more critical for a small country.

Switzerland is a landlocked country located in the alps and without access to the sea, it is without any natural resources except their people from multi-ethnic backgrounds.

Yet, the Swiss Government does not take it on themselves to be more talented and intelligent then the sum total qualities of all the Swiss Citizens.

There has been no major economic setbacks despite the numerous global events that rocked every economies of the world including Singapore, even as the Swiss economy is plugged to the global economy.

It is from the collective political participation in REFERENDUMS that involve of all Swiss Citizens – in the formulating of policies that affect Switzerland – that has created a more resilient political, economic, social and cultural environment that can tolerate the external stresses imposed onto this landlocked nation.

Switzerland do not need ministers that pay themselves millions – which obscenely exceed the average wages of the citizens – to have Switzerland run in such efficient clock work.

What matters is a democracy that works

MR GERALD Giam's version of democracy ('What makes a democracy'; Wednesday) is precisely what I think Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew fears Singaporeans take for granted - an auto-pilot flight to success without recognising what made us successful.

Mr Giam dreams of a paradoxical democracy where all political parties compete vigorously and yet form a strong independent government institution void of partisan interest.

The fact is, there will be a partisan division because political parties cannot agree.

The world's greatest democracy, the United States, is stymied by its democratic structure. The President needs to submit his proposal (Bill) for approval by both the House and the Senate, with the two political parties at odds with each other.

Every Bill is debated vigorously by intelligent men on both sides and is often either amended or abandoned. While they debate and bicker, millions of Americans remain unemployed and jobs are lost to China daily. American wages have fallen since 2001.

Is this the type of democracy we should wish for?

It took an outstanding leader like President Barrack Obama many months to navigate partisan agendas to pass health-care reforms that give American workers basic access to health care.

Would we prefer to wait so long should MediShield require fixing one day? I am glad my Government is not only capable but free from being politically shackled.

When we are in a crisis, the Government is free to act swiftly. When manufacturing jobs were lost to China, the Government's response was swift, as was its rapid reaction to the global recession.
