I told ds that in PAP rally, flags/ umbrellas are usually free. In WP rally, need to pay but you see alot of people willingly pay for it....

[/quote]Yes, PAP is rich. They give freebies to people at rallies to send the message that they take care of the people. Question is, why people are willing to buy to support WP, even huddling together in the rain to keep supporting the WP? This is something that PAP will never understand.

Maybe it is in our genes, from our forefathers who migrated here before our time, who took care of each other in tough times and supported the PAP, who then turned around when things changed, and struck us down saying we have the blood of peasants and bring in other migrants to replace us.

Either that, or they have moved too far ahead in their plans for the future, hence the gap between them and the people.

Hey, it tells so much.... WP leaders standing on the stage till the last moment under a heavy downpour.... It's not a drizzle but a heavy downpour. Supporters sticking through the downpour. The best part was many were not even those hardcore supporters.

Just imagine... if PAP uses the open field. Will their supporters who were ferried there by bus still stick by them under this kind of weather :?

Now that they've seen what happened to WP rally in heavy rain, sure would be prepared right? Should be able to put up temporary shelter for them quickly - anyway, they won't need a very big one loh..

This is not about support ANY parties but tonight I experienced one of the most moving things in Hougang that will last for a long time ! What is amazing is that it started to rain, those with umbrella started running around, sheltering strangers without umbrella , aunties tearing plastic bags into 2 to give to others , family of 5 gathers under one tiny umbrella , uncle taking off their shirt and shelter other older folks and kids.
Singaporean placing others before themselves! Respect! Tonight Hougang residents , I salute you for your giving spirit!
