SINGAPORE – One of two men who made false corruption allegations against Manpower Minister Josephine Teo and her husband has apologised and taken down the offending post after legal letters were issued to them.
In a post late Wednesday (May 20) night, Facebook user Donald Liew said a statement he published on May 14 was false and completely without foundation.
His post had alleged that Mrs Teo and her husband had improperly benefited from the coronavirus outbreak in migrant worker dormitories here and the development of “emergency housing facilities” for Covid-19 patients.
Mrs Teo’s husband, Mr Teo Eng Cheong, is the international chief executive in charge of Singapore, South-east Asia and North Asia at Surbana Jurong, which developed the community care facility (CCF) at Singapore Expo.
“I apologise unreservedly to Mrs Josephine Teo for making (the allegations). I have removed the statement and undertake not to publish any further statements on this, or to make any allegations to the same or similar effect, in any manner whatsoever,” Mr Liew wrote.
