Tan Chuan Jin (TCJ) will be conducting a Leadership Course
I do not know Tan Chuan Jin (TCJ) but I do know that he was once the Speaker of our Parliament, a one time politically rising sun and a former member of the pap 4G team. I laughed and I shooke my head when I read that he will be conducting a Leadership Course.
I do not doubt a few things and I do doubt a few things.
Firstly, I do not doubt his credentials and his knowledge about the subject matters of the course that he will be conducting, however, never mind the saying that those who can, do and those who can't, teach, I generally hold teachers, coaches, mentors and seniors etc in high regard whenever they teach with a kind and noble intention of imparting and sharing their knowledge and experiences accumulated over the years with those who are willing to learn.
In TCJ's case, his 'screwing around' at high places has definitely brought shame upon himself, his honey, his family and most unfortunately, the standing, stature and the public's perception and respect for our Parliament.
His matrimonial corrupt behaviours in this internet era and in very small Singapore are impossible to ignore or brush away and I believe that many pap supporters must have wished for that.
Even though he is no longer in the political limelight, I believe that many people have not forgotten or forgiven him yet for the simple reason that he is no ordinary Ah Beng or Ah Seng.
I wish him every success but his so-called Leadership Courses do not come cheap. I do not know who will attend but I suspect that hardcore pap supporters are likely participants and/or those whose course fees are paid for by their employers etc..
Think.

I want to say something fair here.
No doubt, Tan is a conjugal liar, but that is not illegal, just maybe immoral, and it is a matter best left to his other half to debate and sort out. The supposed morally upright mob (i.e. people like us) may not like what he did, but that is a moral issue that we should not judge.
I have known couples who are into polyamory, even a few hotwives, they are living a very happy and good life, it is simply a case of to each his own. Now that he is giving a course on leadership, I would like to opine that who he slept with has nothing to do with his credentials and ability to lead, so it is acceptable to me.
Maybe even as an added bonus, the ‘students’ may even get a bonus lesson how to have an affair, get caught and still keep your job.
I would also love to attend a talk by former President Bill Clinton on how to enjoy sex with your subordinate legally without actually having sex.

The ad for his “masterclass” says, “To develop ideas on how to win hearts and minds.
He definitely qualifies. You can ask the other person for proof.
“Yes! He won my heart!
Yes! He won my mind!
Yes! He won my …”
Simon, don’t be a sourgrape.

Should name it “Skills Course”; surely, leadership has a moral et al component.

It’s not about judging him. It’s about the sort of values he believes in. A man’s values are just as important as his vision.

But then, who really qualify as “leaders”, with those arguably disproportionately high salaries (“justice and equality”), the sort of worry of none lesser than Lee Sian Yang’s about the Courts , and such as Marine Parade Constituency covering even Yeo Choo Kang, etc., etc.? In Hougang, where I live, even though Workers’ Party is our MP, only a Mr Lee, PAP failed candidate, attends most constituents’ functions. At my grandson’s kindergarten graduation, pre-school pupils line up to cheer a “Mr Lee”, like at PAP rally, trained to shout “Mr Lee, Mr Lee, as he arrived to officiate the graduation. Parents with child posed for a photo with Mr Lee, before closing. Etc., Etc.!

Maybe some chicks will attend.
Afterall,he is quite “yen dao”(handsome).
But,frankly,it was more a hubby-wifey matter.
There are more SERIOUS MATTERS for us to take note.
Sure,he can teach attendees HOW TO WIN HEARTS.
He was good at it,hehehe.

He has the leadership skill lah…if not how to achieve what he has done so far..
The affair is a moral issue which he and those involved has paid a price.
Does not means he can’t teach the leadership course.,
Give him a break…you need one too one day…
Lets be more forgiving…he also need to survive.
