Who replaced him as Finance Minister for now?

I don't understand why an "Unelected" former MP can stand in for him in his MP duties. This is just wrong.

But well, absolute power. Simi also can. But if others do that, HA!

Uniquely Singapore!

help mah

Honest, for goodness sake i just feel that the "stroke" machiam enters another dimension.

Red dot can survive comes stroke or no stroke.

Let move on and that the patient does recover in his own time less such noise.

I think GC has a point here. A proper backup plan is clearly lacking here. By right I would expect another MP be an interim Finance minister.

A Finance minister role is a major portfolio that have many sensitive or secret data, cannot let an outsider or unelected person to oversee.

So, its puzzling to see such an arrangement. I thought the deputy PM shld be the interim finance controller.
