The Monetary Authority of Singapore sees it fit to first hire a non-citizen, Sopnendu Mohanty, as Chief Fintech Officer handling sensitive data in the Singapore.It then allows him to take up a post in a foreign government, specifically the government of his home state of Odisha in India. The state government released a statement that Mr Mohanty will "enjoy the status" of a minister of state.

They then claim that the post is in his "personal capacity" and has no compensation and carries no conflict of interest.

The conflict is clear as day. That a foreign citizen is allowed to take up a senior government position then double hat in a foreign government is unconscionable. There are no safeguards, and clearly a lack of dedication of service to the people of Singapore.

We demand an investigation into the appointment in India, who approved it, who approved Mr Mohanty's hiring in MAS and why there is lack of basic sense of accountability to Singapore in MAS.
