422mil is a lot of money, although only enough to hit Keppel Corp for a FY. But what's more is lost, is the reputation, which takes "years to build, and only take minutes to lose it". Some implications i think of would be (1) What about SembMarine? (so far, no updates on the investigation - no news would be good news?) (2) What about its massive PEMEX jackup rig orders/deliveries? Latin countries are corruption-prone (and their SOEs are the personification of such corrupt) but so far, there isn't any scandals emerging from PEMEX.


NO individuals were named. But incidentally i was looking through Kep Corp news releases for more background and saw that the head rolled.

Well, despite all the rhetoric about integrity, business reality is a lot more complicated especially when competing for business in the shrinking universe of O&M. A professor from Harvard Business School once said that if you practise good ethics in the business world, you're less likely to run into illegality. But if you aim for doing only what's legal, then the chance of tripping up is higher. For small fries like us, this is a good chance to buy the dips!
