AT THE fifth investor rally at Hong Lim Park on Saturday, the anger and complaints of the 700-strong crowd were directed from the financial institutions to the Government and financial industry regulators.

Agitated investors questioned why there is still no word from the Government about investigating the investment products sold by several banks and financial institutions here.

In his speech, the rally's organiser, former chief executive officer of insurer NTUC Income Tan Kin Lian, said his request to meet with Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) officials to discuss the three petitions he sent them earlier had been denied.
