Since it' sprouted by the state media, it must be the truth!

Ok jokes aside, it's not clear if the 'returns' include capital injections from ministry of finance, tax monies or the CPF. If not included, what's the formula to calculate the returns.

If my mum keeps giving me money to invest, covering the losses I made previously, how do I measure my returns?

Can anybody comment on this? How accurate is this?

Now they are saying they're better than Warren Buffett. But just today in Straits Times, a guy wrote to forum to say it's not a fair comparison.

One should also wonder why Temasek Holdings are compared to this & that & there's a general flurry of "generated positivity" with regard to their perfromance.

Cospiracy theorists like me wld say it definitely translates to covering-up of some issues.

Wonder when's the next election? Heh heh...
