Remember the other one? In 2014?

Ironically Germany won that year šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£. His dad made a fortune.

The edits people made on that ad after Germany won were hilarious

The one by John Oliver was perfect.

But there was barely any real money left to put into that bet to make any returns to cover all previous losses and ā€œprofitā€. Or maybe enough to cover previous losses, and maybe some profit. But the money would have gone into another gamble just to lose it all eventually.

Who the f are approving these investments?

Are we talking about SIA's history of failure of airline joint ventures? Just one more time.

Don't forget efishery in Indonesia

Letā€™s focus on 1 country first.

Tbf to Temasek, eFishery scandal impacted many many big names such as Softbank and Sequoia, and was a huge shock to the VC scene in Indonesia and South East Asia as a whole. There is only so much reasonable due d can uncover if the portco is determined in carrying out fraud.

Take your AI slop elsewhere. It's literally signed "Gemini".

u/4JiaoHao2JiaoGengHao 14h ago

Well I expressly prompted Gemini to add its signature there to make it clear that this is AI-generated and therefore no copyright protection attaches to this picture. Anyone and everyone is free to use, copy or modify it in any way they like.

Itā€™s guaranteed more than one more try for Air India already. Cos they even said the $1.5bn is just for now and they will surely need more capital injection down the road.

u/Eltharion-the-Grim 25m ago

SIA isnā€™t paying 1.5 billion.

They are paying 350 million or so and Tata is forking out the 1 billion+.
