The Hobbit thinks Prof Tan Ser Kiat should run for the elected presidency for the following compelling reasons:
a) He has run SingHealth for some 11 years as Group CEO – which owns SGH, KKH, CGH, several national centres and many polyclinics – surely that must be >100M in terms of paid up capital
b) He’s older than 45
c) He is a “Tan”, like Dr Tony Tan, Dr Tan Cheng Bock, Tan Kim Lian and Tan Jee Say
d) He is from RI – like Dr Tan Cheng Bock, Tan Kim Lian and Tan Jee Say
e) It’s been a long time since we had a doctor for President – 30 years to be exact, since President Sheares
f) Its a money-saving President – all the government offices only need ONE photo and not two
g) He’s already got one hospital named after him – Sengkang General Hospital (i.e. SKGH)
Go for it, Prof Tan!!!!
