The main reason for this is because there are a lot of red links. It's minor, but they should either be removed, or articles created.
Also, the phrase: "While he was Director of the CAD, Knight was living in a bungalow in East Coast that was financed by mortgage. After his conviction he could no longer pay for the bungalow and had to move to a much smaller HDB flat in Toa Payoh, and later to one in Telok Blangah" seems to be irrelevant, although I may be wrong.

I added the talkheader template above so the page could be talked over and fixed up to become a good article example. Cheers! ~ I'm anonymous
You can't use images found on google as they are copyrighted. Fair use rationales for copyrighted images of living persons are not allowed for use on wikipedia as it is possible to replace with a free image. LaraLove T/ C 06:03, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Overall the article looks pretty good, but I think a couple small things need fixed before marking it GA.
I moved them up to the top. If one wanted to browse quickly down instead of scrolling, Skiptotoctalk should be on top for "instant clickability", targeting to the table of contents. The talkheader should come second since it has the links to Wikipedia policies. Lord Sesshomaru
This article has been reviewed as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force.

I think it's a little short; the body's all good and while it's not terribly long the lead is quite the converse. E.g., it says nothing about his early career, and gives not much hint of his much touted ability as a lawyer, which is expounded in the body. Chensiyuan ( talk) 00:42, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
