1) Try NOT to LOSE money!
2) Do NOT SELL in BEAR, BUY-BUY-BUY! invest in managements/companies that does the same!
3) CASH in hand is KING in BEAR!
4) In BULL, SELL-SELL-SELL!

Who was the Minister in charge during that period ?
“risk comes from not knowing what you’re doing.”
I don’t look to jump over 7-foot bars: I look around for 1-foot bars that I can step over.

probably, it should be the civil servant "staffing" the minister?
Who was the Permanent secretary and Deputy secretary during that period?

Just sharing my experience regarding this.
Admitted my father this early morning for observation as suggested by the TTSH A&E doctor.
During the admission process, I was told by the CSO that the waiting time for a bed, at least in B2, was 5-6 hours.
However, as the CSO was reading out and explaining to me each of the clauses for the admission T&C, there was this clause that struck me (You can say I am a mountain tortoise). This clause is that I will be charged 100% for ward usage and other charges in the event that they have insufficient room in the ward and have to resort to place my father + bed along the corridor (outside the ward). At the end, I have to sign and acknowledge that I have understood all the T&C.
Woah... seems like the "bed crunch" is really that bad? till they have to stipulate it in the T&C for admission?
Am I a mountain tortoise? Because I don't really remember hearing such clause the last time? (I have to admit that this is the first time I am admitting someone for hospitalization)

Just an update...
The estimated 5-6 hour bed waiting time has just passed.
Called TTSH for an update and was told that my father was still in A&E observation area. And they can't provide me with an further estimate of when my father can get a ward bed.
