SINGAPORE -Allegations of profiteering and corruption in relation to the development of the community care facility (CCF) by Surbana Jurong at the Singapore Expo Convention and Exhibition Centre are “false and malicious”, said the Ministry of Health and Ministry of National Development on Wednesday (May 20).
In a joint statement, the two ministries said the Government had asked sovereign wealth fund Temasek to help set up a CCF for those with mild or no symptoms of Covid-19 and recovering patients. This was because Temasek had the necessary resources to do so at short notice through its subsidiaries.
“Temasek agreed to assist, and also agreed that the work done by Temasek and its linked companies, would be done at cost recovery basis, and in some cases, below cost. There will be no profit made by Temasek and its linked companies for the work done,” the ministries said.
Temasek had asked other companies, including PSA International, Singapore Technologies Engineering and Sheares Healthcare to help. External vendors such as Parkway Pantai, Resorts World Sentosa and Certis Cisco were also roped in.
