In response to queries, the Ministry of National Development told The Straits Times on Wednesday afternoon: 'MND confirms that it has reported the matter to the CPIB.' Earlier, on Tuesday night, the ministry said it had suspended its assistant director of the Park Connector Network, Mr Bernard Lim, from duty.

  6. http://sg.news.yahoo.com/senior-cpib-offic...-021159522.html A senior officer with the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau is currently being investigated for embezzlement, reported The New Paper on Thursday. CPIB has confirmed it is investigating one of its own, and in a reply to the paper said, "Upon discovery of suspected financial impropriety by one of its officers, the CPIB referred the matter to the CAD for investigation". The CAD refers to the Commercial Affairs Department, which usually investigates white collar crimes. It also confirmed it is looking into the matter. The man being investigated is believed to hold the position of assistant director and he has reportedly been suspended from duty. It's the second case in recent days of an investigation involving a civil servant. Over the weekend, The Sunday Times reported that an assistant director with the Media Development Authority of Singapore is being investigated for trying to borrow money from applicants who are seeking an MDA grant. It's understood the officer, who is single and in his 30s, has also been suspended from duty.

  8. 6 vehicle inspectors under probe for bribery Source: Straits Times IN WHAT is believed to be the first case of its kind in Singapore, anti-graft officers have hauled up vehicle inspectors suspected of accepting bribes in return for turning a blind eye to illegally modified cars. The Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) visited STA Inspection's Sin Ming Road branch on March 9 and questioned half a dozen of its employees. STA Inspection - part of the ST Engineering group - is one of three vehicle inspection companies running 10 inspection centres. The others are Vicom and JIC Inspection Services, which are not affected by the probe. Vehicle inspection has been mandatory in Singapore since 1981. Cars that are between three and 10 years old have to be inspected every two years to ensure their roadworthiness. Cars older than 10 years have to go for an-nual inspections. The STA inspectors are believed to have accepted bribes from workshops specialising in car modifications. These workshops, which often send customers' cars for inspection on their behalf for a fee, are believed to have bribed certain inspectors to ensure they would pass the modified vehicles. STA Inspection's general manager, Mr Teo Kee Jin, told The Straits Times that six employees at its Sin Ming branch were questioned by the CPIB. He said STA set up its own board of inquiry following the CPIB's visit. 'During the course of our own investigation, a decision was made to dismiss four of the employees, who admitted they had breached company policy. The two others have been suspended,' he said. Observers expect some, if not all, to wind up in court. The CPIB has refused to comment. The crackdown has sent ripples across the car workshop trade - especially those involved in modifications. Several workshops contacted refused to comment. 'Everybody is lying low right now,' said Mr Tony Tan, deputy editor of motoring magazine Torque. 'They're worried that they might be hauled up too. 'Even the car owners are worried.' Mr Tan, however, felt that though the Land Transport Authority (LTA) has relaxed the rules on modifications in recent years, the regulations are still out of step with the times. 'Many of the modified cars are safer than normal street cars,' he said. Mr Joey Lim, president of the Singapore Motor Workshop Association, concurred. 'The LTA is being too cautious,' he said. Among the rules the authority has relaxed in the last five years is one governing exhaust systems. Previously, there was a blanket ban on after-market exhaust systems. Now, those with proper certification are allowed. Last year, the authority took action against 2,510 motorists for making illegal modifications to their cars - 44 per cent more than in 2008, and possibly the highest in 10 years. Most cases are related to exhaust systems, tinted windows and lamps. In the wake of the CPIB probe, vehicle inspection firms are tightening processes. Mr Teo of STA Inspection said the company has enhanced what is 'basically a robust system'. 'We have implemented a number of changes, including randomly rotating inspectors across test lanes within the same centre, as well as rotating them across our three different centres. 'This increases the 'randomness' of customer-inspector contact,' he said. Vicom spokesman Tammy Tan said: 'We are currently fine-tuning our processes to make sure abuses...do not occur within our organisation.' The inspection business is estimated to generate a combined profit of $40 million a year for the three players.
