The lecture series has attracted chief executive officers of statutory boards, government- linked companies and private industry, plus 150 of Singapore's most senior civil servants.

BEC respects court decision on election petition
The following is issued on behalf of the Boundary and Election Commission:
In response to press enquiries, a spokesman for the Registration and Electoral Office said today (Thursday) that the Boundary and Election Commission respected the court decision on Mr Wong Kin-man's election petition and would proceed with the arrangements for a district board by- election for Lower Ngau Tau Kok constituency.
The by-election will be held on March 5, the same day as the Municipal Council elections.
The spokesman said conducting the two elections concurrently would provide electors with the maximum convenience and save resources. The by- election will cost about $25,000. He described the incident as most unfortunate. The polling staff responsible have been reprimanded by the commission.
