Doing the right thing K Shanmugam - BT 17.5.14

1. Passionate about serving and protecting society, seeing it as the opportunity to make people's lives better.

2. You create a framework, Singapore becomes the legal business centre for all of Asia - and a lot of people will benefit, not just lawyers.

3. We are now the 3rd most preferred destination for international arbitration, the SIAC is the 4th most preferred seat, and Maxwell Chambers is one of the most sought after.

4. That's what I mean by law supporting and creating an excellent business environment and, in its own way, also helping to make Singapore the best center for law in the entire region - we are now well ahead of Hong Kong.

by Law Minister K Hanmugam

I think 6.9m is insufficient, minimum 8 millions (Top 10% HNWP) by 2020!
1) Try NOT to LOSE money!
2) Do NOT SELL in BEAR, BUY-BUY-BUY! invest in managements/companies that does the same!
3) CASH in hand is KING in BEAR! 
4) In BULL, SELL-SELL-SELL!

ai ya, at this moment, better stick to 6.9m aka the HNWP will have to wait for 2030.
we need time for MRT/Bus network to pull their socks up.
we also need time for KBW to build all the BTO flats and stablise the lopsided ppty market.
Medical and education policy also need to tune up too.

once we got the 6.9m up and running in 2020 smoothly, 8 million in 2030 should be no brainer.

Make it 10m , the more the merrier .

Open doors: Lawyers and arbitrators fr around the world have flocked to SGP, setting up offices, including in Maxwell Chambers. Open doors enable parties to put the conduct of the case in the hands of their favorite counsel, regardless of nationality or jurisdiction of qualification.

In Apr, > 20 London QC were in SGP on the same day, a phenomenon unheard of in the past years but which has become almost commonplace today.

I somehow have faith in their words. When they say 6.9m, no matter how it will be achieved. When they say FT is important, more FTs will come. The only hurdle is to win enough sits, which is not difficult at all.
