Forty-seven-year-old Lim Yong Sim, the former executive chairman and CEO of No Signboard, was convicted and sentenced to a fine of $420,000 after pleading guilty to three charges of false trading. He admitted that between June 19 and 29, 2018, he bought 4,331,200 No Signboard shares using the trading account of Gugong to falsely push up the price of the shares. Lim, who was at the time the director and majority shareholder of Gugong, a majority shareholder of No Signboard, was under pressure from shareholders due to the company's declining share price. As a result of the false trades, No Signboard share price rose by 27 per cent from $0.154 to $0.196, against the backdrop of a decline of 1.69 per cent in the Straits Times Index during the same period. On Nov 29, 2018, No Signboard, in announcing its financial results, revealed that the company registered a loss — causing No Signboard share price to dip to to $0.137. Lim began trading in No Signboard shares again, buying a total of 3,535,100 shares between Nov 30, 2018, and Jan 11, 2019, using Gugong's trading account.

He had wanted a plate of roast duck rice, sans rice, but was taken aback when his order was rejected. The patron, surnamed Li, told Shin Min Daily News that he had gone to a roast meat stall near Toa Payoh MRT station on Tuesday (Oct 29) and placed an order for «duck rice without rice». However, he was told by the employee that they don't offer such an option. Li, 42, explained that he only wanted to have the meat and thought that ordering it with rice would be a waste. «The duck rice costs $6.90 and I was willing to foot the amount. The female staff member however said that her boss had indicated that they wouldn't sell it without rice.» Thinking he might have misunderstood what the employee was saying, Li returned to the eatery two days later, only for his request to be turned down yet again. «I've bought individual portions of meat at other stalls, I don't understand why this stall can't do it,» said Li. According to Shin Min, a reporter who went down to the eatery had tried ordering the same item and was also rejected.
