>[b]What really happened[/b]
>
>It was sometime in Aug/Sep in the year 2009. The setting was in the
>Tampines Central office of Asiasoft Online Pte Ltd. I was having a
>***verbal*** conversation with Melvin Lee, my new I.T. department
>manager, when he challenged me to complete an I.T. assignment within a
>specified period of time. In response to his challenge, I replied in
>Mandarin: "If I cannot complete the I.T. assignment within a specified
>period of time, then Lee Kuan Yew is wang ba dan". I used to be fond of
>using other people's names to "bet" with people but now no more. The
>Minister Mentor's name came into my mind spontaneously and I used it to
>"bet" with my I.T. department manager.
>
>[b]Explanations[/b]
>
>1. It was not my intention to insult the Minister Mentor at that time.
>Please note the use of the IF... THEN... statement in my verbal
>conversation.
>
>2. I did not know wang ba dan [hanyu pinyin] means bastard at all until
>I consulted Goh Meng Seng much later.
>
>I would like to apologize to the Minister Mentor and the Prime Minister
>of Singapore if I have offended them in any way. I swear it was not my
>intention to insult the Minister Mentor. Please forgive me for using
>your name carelessly to "bet" with my former I.T. department manager.
>

>Yours sincerely,
