I am no fan of HC. To be fair, Temasek CEO will not see that amount of money even after hotels, flights, salary and pension. How he derived $52M per employee is ridiculous conclusion.

Temasek investment record of huge losses are well known. Balding's entertainment probably reveals more hard truths which idiots find it hard to accept.

Temasek investment record of huge losses are well known. Balding's entertainment probably reveals more hard truths which idiots find it hard to accept.
