Are you serious? Here's an actual case of corruption at a government-linked org in Singapore: in particular, look how three people making claims that later turned out to entirely factual were sued into apologizing, and the bubble only burst when the NKF made the mistake of suing somebody even better-connected to the establishment.

So we are too corrupt or are we too authoritarian?

After all we just jailed a man over pineapple tart corruption.

NKF is not the government. That's kind of like saying that TSA molests people, and that the federal government is responsible for it.

It's possible to be both. Do not tolerate protest, and also promote family members to run state organisations.

I think you'll find that there are no grounds to prove the latter part of your statement in a way which supports your implied accusations of nepotism.

Exception that proves the rule.
