I just chip in on the last sentence as the rest of your post is too funny.

1. So far most of the MAS officers I know have a pretty cordial relationship with their FI counterparts. (Not all, some of the older ones still prefer to keep arms length distance - story for another day - but there was some feedback before that generally younger ones are friendlier). And this must be the case because we ask so much information from them. Not just what is required as part of regulatory returns but all the extras to answer bosses questions (especially when they are new heh heh heh). Imagine if one day your FI compliance or risk management decides it’s not necessary provide you the extent of detail you ask for becos it’s not required by regs or guidelines! How will you write your long internal report!

2. You’re prob underestimating FIs if you think they will meekly accept “nonsense” talk. I have encountered FIs who are more than able to hold their own in a discussion with robust views instead of simply acquiescing.

3. It’s also prob unwise for anyone to act as you described, since every now and then mas folks will resign and try to join industry, now suppose someone has a lousy reputation as the mas liaison, do you think any FI worth their salt will want to onboard them? (whether they can perform after taking off the mas hat is a separate matter)

Act there are a lot of these people. We called them freeloaders.. and unfortunately, they are the bosses' fav and they just claim the credits for the project and get the promotion.

Just a Singaporean trying to make a living. Dont talk passion as if it replaces salary.
Don’t forget this is discretionary bonus, not monthly salary. Dependent on P.E.R.F.O.R.M.A.N.C.E. Most will be eligible but ultimately it’s not an entitlement. Quantum to award is up to your employer.

Sell experience ah, what if there’s oversupply of ex-mas out there trying to sell the same goods, will it result in lower price? Hahaha

Passion to serve? Not so sure. Cos if they really are passionate, they wouodnt be complaining about bonus.

No wonder talents are all looking for exit opportunities.

Then again, base the way you say things right, you may be easily identified too .
If you read carefully, the post is to people who may not know. Someone already said recently HR is monitoring, if that true, why do you think HR that is so busy will do so?

As for your next comment, hey what makes you think anyone would mind too much to share their opinions and factual experiences of work at MAS in real life with anyone who has interest to listen?
