LIEW Mun Leong has resigned from his commercial and public service roles at the Changi Airport Group (CAG), Surbana Jurong, the Temasek Foundation and Temasek International with immediate effect.
The announcement that he is advancing his retirement from these roles comes days after his former maid was acquitted of stealing from him and his family. The Attorney General’s Office (AGC) is now reviewing the handling of the case.
Mr. Liew was Chairman of CAG and Surbana Jurong, Senior International Business Advisor at Temasek, and Board Member of the Temasek Foundation.
He said in a statement Thursday night: “Those who know me will know that I am passionate about the roles and missions of these organizations. I do not want my current situation to be a distraction to their respective boards, management and staff, in the midst of their many critical priorities. “
He added that he is ready to assist or advise organizations without compensation if necessary, given the ongoing challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Mr. Liew said he made the police report against Parti Liyani out of a sense of civic duty to report the matter and allow authorities to investigate whether there are suspicions of wrongdoing. “The Superior Court has made its decision. I have faith in our legal system and I respect the Superior Court’s decision,” he said.
He added that he and his family members have cooperated with the police during the investigation and trial, and will continue to cooperate with the AGC and the police if necessary.
