#661 - Ng Chee Meng’s Response to Controversies & Woman's Matchmaking Refund Drama

from Yah Lah But · host Ministry of Funny

Days after GE2025, a dinner photo featuring Ng Chee Meng, Su Haijin (a convicted money launderer), and billionaire Sam Goi surfaced online - raising eyebrows and trust issues. While Ong Ye Kung and Chee Hong Tat responded quickly, Ng Chee Meng’s delayed statement came off vague and defensive. Even weirder, he “asked” PM Wong to not consider him for a cabinet position. Why does this incident matter? What does it say about how the new government will handle accountability? And are the public’s standards for transparency rising faster than the system can handle? In other news, we dive deep into the drama surrounding one woman’s struggles with a premium matchmaking agency.(00:00) Words of Wisdom(01:00) Intro(09:03) Ng Chee Meng Responds to Money Launderer & MOE Controversies(51:52) Woman's Matchmaking Refund Drama(01:01:56) One Shiok Comment(01:05:00) One Shiok ThingNominate a Senior over 60 for Words of Wisdom!We’ll be recording 60 Folklories with 60 Singaporeans above 60 yrs as part of our “Words of Wisdom” Project for SG60You can check out the first wave of recordings on the same siteHelp us keep these stories alive by nominating your loved ones!One Shiok ThingGrand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2The Smashing Machine | Official TrailerComment on this episode!Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/YahLahBut/Telegram: https://t.me/YahLahButPodcastFollow us on our socials for the latest newsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yahlahbutIG: https://www.instagram.com/yahlahbut/FB: https://www.facebook.com/yahlahbutpodNg Chee Meng Responds to Money Launderer & MOE ControversiesLabour chief Ng Chee Meng asks PM Wong not to assign him any position in governmentOng Ye Kung, Chee Hong Tat don’t know Fujian gang member Su Haijin personally: StatementNg Chee Meng met Fujian gang member Su Haijin at engagement session, had no further interactionsNg Chee Meng apologises for how he acted in 2017 MOE dialogue with teachersWoman's Matchmaking Refund DramaWoman, 31, who earns over S$10,000 a month, seeks refund from S'pore matchmaking agency for not linking her up with guys with suitable incomes, looks & education levelsMics and Headphones from @shureChairs from @ergotunechairEdited and mixed by Tristen Yeak

Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next. So tune in Two Recruiters: Zero Filter Two Recruiters At Two Recruiters: Zero Filter, we're on a mission to demystify the hiring process, share insider tips, and empower you to maneuver through the professional world with confidence. With more than 30 years of combined experience navigating the intricate web of job markets, talent acquisition, and career development, we're here to spill the tea on everything career related. But wait, there’s more! We will dive into many life topics that are interesting to us as well.  Get ready for a rollercoaster of insights, stories, and no-holds-barred advice!Join us for conversations that matter – where work, life, and authenticity collide in the most unexpected and rewarding ways.
