Way2GO:

Why PEH hv to answer DPM TCH's bait n get sidetrack?

Just ask DPM tonite: \"Is DC ur best man for HG? Why didn't u put ur best man/woman candidate in HG?\"

Ya hor. But isn't he? He has never left...

Ok read this somewhere... that's because he is the grassroot adviser... So that's why he is simply there. Apparently... they say grassroot adviser has more rights than the MPs :?

concern2:

With the young blood thingy, you are echoing TCH. Like what TCH said, LTK is good with words. I agree. He is selling PEH to the HG residents. And that is what rallies are about, isn't it?老王卖瓜，自卖自夸嘛! 有什么瓜，就卖什么瓜，总好过自己的瓜不够好，就去踩它人丢去的瓜 :rotflmao: (Sori, got into one of my those moods again...)

like i said this are the points being raised now against WP what

But whatever it is i just wanna see if they are going to acknowedgle the questions being raise and see whether the minutes of the meeting that were revealed to the media are real anot? and if they are what is peh gona do about what he said to the media about being the one not wanting to join ncmp but instead was not selected to be one, is like zhi da zui ba.

Yes, will be interesting to watch. PEH will have more grey hair than he already has. His lesson in what he says to the media.

excerpt[quote]Singaporeans are now focussed on the Hougang by election given it is the biggest political event this year. Some are offering their views on how Hougang residents should vote. This is absolutely unnecessary. The people there know what democracy is all about. They have demonstrated this to other Singaporeans for the last 20 years.

[/quote]I love what this blogger wrote. Thanks for sharing... I am so fed up with MOE that I couldn't help but applaud when I read the following from your link.
[quote]Helping residents temporarily with their finances by directing them to piecemeal aid and charities is not going to remove the root cause of their problems. The more Desmond Choo goes along this approach, the more people will need help because the PAP will keep its policies intact without major change.

...

Lets not forget how the few tweaks to PAP policies came about. If not for the loss of Aljunied and the significant swing in the votes, you think the PAP will even twitch their policies let alone tweak their policies? The only way to bring about change has been demonstrated - it is through the ballot box. There is no other language the PAP understands. We can discuss and discuss. Feedback through the forum thousands of letters. We can tell the MPs in their face during meet the people sessions....but all this is useless because the PAP does not even move an inch unless you're prepared to reject their upgrading carrots and vote against them. This is the only signal they understand and nothing else. Unless people vote against them, they will just assume you're complaining and not serious about the changes you want. The PAP does not listen until you vote their MPs out of parliament. You have to show them you're serious. [/quote]
