Another Singapore government official charged for obtaining sexual gratifications

SMU Assistant Professor of Law Eugene Tan commented that the two recent graft cases against senior civil servants have tarnished Singapore's image as a corruption-free country. However, the fact that both alleged offences have been exposed shows that Singapore's anti-corruption system remains intact and effective. If found guilty, Ng Boon Gay, former CNB chief, faces a jail term of five years and a fine of $100,000 maximum on each charge.
