Useless
This entry is about 2 years out of date. Also, I fail to see the utility of listing rumors from the business press. A good example of Wikiuselessness. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.198.188.110 (talk) 01:57, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Controversy Clean Up
Contents is simply the text available at Temasek website —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.23.98.110 (talk) 11:39, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I have placed a tag on the Controversy section of this article as it needs the attention of an experienced editor in order to be cleaned up. Other articles have recently been vandalised by a user claiming to be the Ladonian Ambassador and the content is always a load of nonsense. I suspect the same is true here.

I also noticed the need for this section to be adressed. The use of the "we" and "I" is very unencyclopedic and makes me suspicious of the content, but unfortunately I don't know anything about this topic. Ratherhaveaheart 18:45, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Controversy
I'm not very informed about their dealing in Thailand, but isn't Temasek Holdings in the very center of the political turmoil there? 130.126.131.160 17:21, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

The name
What is a "Temasek?" --203.177.223.170 11:39, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Temasek is the old name of Singapore, way back in the 14th century.

questionable business investments
Hi all. add the following sentence to the page yesterday. I added a comment to his talk page if he had a a source for this statement particularly the Sudan related energy investment. Does anyone know where this info comes from? Thanks

The company, along with its sister fund GIC (the Singapore government's second soverign wealth fund), has sought to distance itself in recent years from questionable business investments such as oil sector investments in Africa (Sudan in particular) and plantation investments in Indonesia (responsible for significant deforestation). The company shares in common with the Singapore national government a high focus on managing public perceptions of its activities.

Investments table
HELP UPDATE THIS TABLE - Data is 5 yrs out of date, from Indonesia wiki site - major categories and half the entries are wrong - ie companies and percentage holdings. You can comb through the latest annual report.

Some major Temasek Holdings investments (as of 2004).

Temasek's Parent
Hi all, I’m working at Temasek. Saw that made an addition to the Infobox stating that Temasek’s parent is “Telkom Indonesia”, which is factually incorrect. The main article correctly notes that Temasek is owned by the Government of Singapore, or more accurately the Singapore Minister for Finance.

Suggesting that the edit can be undone, or changed to “parent  = Minister for Finance (Singapore)”, and that the Infobox can be updated with Temasek’s most recent financials as has been done in the main article, or as has been reported here   – Jonathan Huang, Corporate Affairs, Temasek (Jonathanh-sg (talk) 07:47, 13 December 2011 (UTC))
