Very interesting to note that the Singapore authority rotates Flight Operations Inspectors to avoid "overly comfy relationships", sorry, how many operators in Singapore?
In HKA's case, their FOI can't work with any other operator on the airfield, due to "past performance issues". The management of HKA are quite proud of the fact that they can do whatever they want, as they openly say "we have the regulator in our back pocket". It makes a mockery of the concept of regulatory oversight. Time will tell.
