Support for Petition

Hi Mr. Tan,

I am truly heartened to learn that you are championing a petition to ask the government to investigate into the substantial losses that many investors may face arising from their investments in structured notes sold by financial institutions here.

I think the investigation should not limit to those notes mentioned in your blog. I think the investigation should cover a wider scope to include all other series of those notes such as High Notes 2 and others minibonds and jubilee notes and others. This is because we have been warned that more defaults may surface in the course of the next few interest payment dates.

One thing that I do not quite understand is why there seems to be little voice coming from those who have been vocal in parliamentary debates on issues concerning public interest? Is the potential loss of hundreds of millions of dollars in dubious investment instruments by the public not an issue of concern to them?

The Petition covers many structured products, including those that are named in it.
