Yes, he is the acting PM today and tomorrow.
You have not heard of Trade and Industry Minister Lim because...
He doesn't have more than 400,000 FB fans like PM Lee Hsien Loong,
Or manage police matters like DPM Teo Chee Hean,
Or speak for a long time on budget day like DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam.
Nope. He has no Facebook page or Twitter account.
He may be the only Minister in cabinet without a social media presence.
So why is Lim acting PM?
Because PM Lee is on a work trip to China.
The Prime Minister's Office announced in a statement that PM Lee Hsien Loong will visit China from 11 to 18 September 2014, covering Guangdong, Guangxi and Hong Kong.
The statement also mentioned that:
"During PM’s absence, Mr Teo Chee Hean, Deputy Prime Minister, Co-ordinating Minister for National Security and Minister for Home Affairs; and Mr Lim Hng Kiang, Minister for Trade & Industry, will be the Acting Prime Minister for the following periods:
a) Minister Lim Hng Kiang will be the Acting Prime Minister for the period 11 to 13 September 2014.
b) DPM Teo Chee Hean will be the Acting Prime Minister for the period 14 to 18 September 2014."
Anyway, our question is...
Since Acting PM Lim does not have a FB page, can he post on PM Lee's FB page for these three days instead?
