He was scammed 40k of his CPF money. Read here I was quite shocked to hear that one's CPF money could be siphoned off but after reading the news I now understand how it works. So please be careful and don't click on link/s that offers cheap deals.

Out of the 6 cabin crew SVPs I have worked for (TPP wasn't my SVP), one had passed away (Capt Segar), 2 are sick and the rest are fine. I wish them good health. The oldest is now living in Australia and is in his 80s. Yap Kim Hua and Eddie J are my favorites...why??..well because they were rather kind and understanding.
The last manager I've worked for is now retired and his predecessor had kicked the bucket. I've no love for them. Cyril Teo and Eddie Lim were my favorite managers. Cyril had passed away years ago and Eddie is now living in Melbourne.
I am merely speculating that TPT the SVP of cabin crew would either be medically boarded out (due to illness) or be given the early retirement. TPT is in his late 50s and the retirement age for such high ranking staff in SIA is 60. If I were in his shoes, I will go for the early retirement scheme which has many benefits. His number 2 (DVP)has been running cabin crew division for a few months already. That said, health is more important than position and money. I wish TPT well in whatever position he may take after all he has managed cabin crew very well.
From what I've heard he (Jim)once cheated his friend of 100k and fled to Malaysia. When he came back several years later, Jim was arrested at the causeway checkpoint. He was sentenced to 15 months in jail. He has left Singapore and is now in Malaysia.
An ex-stewardess was scammed S$1,000 from her DBS account while trying to sell some items in Carousell. The "buyer" claimed that payment was made and the goods would be collected soon. "Buyer" asked her to check her bank account to confirm that the payment was done. She then opened her DBS Digibank account and the next moment she saw her 1k was transferred out of her account! A report was made to DBS and the police. It has been a few days but so far there is no news from either DBS nor the police.
* Ex- stewardess set her withdrawal limit at 1k otherwise all her money will be swiped clean.
Let's hope that discrimination against non English speaking passengers will not happen on SQ flights. I am quite confident that our crew are sensitive enough not to do that as at CX .
Someone left in the comment below the previous post stating that:
Another CFO Tan taking over CC.Confirm TP.Tan fading into sunset ?
The statement is quite correct as I have heard that an assistant (DVP) is now in cabin crew to oversea the day to day running of the division.
As you know that TPT is ill and is still on long medical leave.
