Great Deficit of Conscience

Many of us would feel vindicated now that Durai has finally admitted to what we all along suspected - mismanagement of public fund in a non-profit charity organisation. But what comes to mind is why do we have to wait for Durai to dig his own grave? Surely someone in NKF should know of the wrong doings and should have blown the whistle? Have the people there lost their sense of values? Or are they too fearful of Durai who could have become a tyrant after so many years at the helm?

And how about our high moral government? Suspicions of abuses in NKF did not appear overnight, they have been in circulation for several years. Are there no authorities that should look into those allegations esp. when they keep resurfacing? Have the government lost their conscience?

The dearth of conscience was again manifested when a member of the PTC (Public Transport Council?) revealed the real cause for the increased in accidents by cabbies. It is due to fatigue and not reckless driving. Sadly, neither the government nor the taxi companies are doing anything to prevent this senseless loss of lives and properties.

There is indeed a great deficit of conscience in Singapore!
