MMM:

You guys are really merry making behind my back huh.... :imcool:

No lah... he voted.

great u r taking d ribbing in gud spirit. :celebrate:

MMM:

Some observations :
* Maybe because PEH is so \"fresh\" that's why he was a easy target on the NCMP case. See the way he forgot his speech and acknowledged his nervousness and couldn't even begin his Cl thank you speech. Yes, he is just so raw but on the other hand, so real. Yes, no one is perfect and he is a classic example. But I think it's ok. I think his CL is really half past six that LTK had to remind him on the CL terms. It was funny but again, real.

Yes PEH has some way to go.
d passion n sincerity to serve d ppl is there.
He can only get better - he better be!

MMM:

* It's politics, so maybe TCH also didn't have a choice. It probably wasn't a easy task for him. He just got to play the \"bad\" guy for his party. So i sort of sympathise with him. But let's move on. I think that is the true Singapore spirit.

* Applaud LTK for lashing out at the mainstream media. They deserve it.

Don't agree dat TCH n PAP didn't hv a choice.
TCH was d chief strategist for PAP in GE 2011,
he in all likelihood, played d same role in HG BE 2012.
d gud cop (DC) n bad cop (TCH n some) didn't work out as well as planned
- kudos to HG for being discerning n rejecting gutter politics.

MMM:

* There is a vast difference between PAP and WP supporters. It is just so amazing that WP supporters are so passionate and it's written all over their face and actions. Importantly... these are man on the streets. This matter more than anything else.

Look at d old man (at PAP Branch office last nite) in d video link below.
Notice d person (hidden) in front of him prompting?
Old man like a puppet - totally no enthusiasm in his support.
Its sad they hv to drag an old man into dis n subject him to 4+ hours of 'torture'.

Hv a good n safe trip to US! :celebrate:

Wonder how it feels to lose twice :?

u noticed dat after MBT in PP going against CST,
PAP doesn't put their better candidates to contest in oppo wards.
I surmised DC knows his part n came in mentally prepared for a tough fight n to lose.
Any gain in votes or % will be considered a plus.

So to say that DC is reali not their Best candidate and he is dispensable - can be replaced anytime ?

Ouch !

He is not their best.
Like his police scholar predecessor HCH, he will likely hang ard HG till he is parachute into a GRC n ride d coattails into parliament.

Ouch ![/quote]after a few faithful fights in HG he will be re-warded in easier ward as a reward, like MBT and NPT

Couldn't help but wonder which pap member can pull a win in hg. :scratchhead:


Pm lee himself, Khow,Thurman,bala,heng, or even tan, the mom guy,etc.......

[magiccastle]

The only one that may be can let the HG residents think twice is PM lee. Other than that, other ministers all no way. My colleague , a HG resident, a die hard fan of WP n LTk. :rahrah: she said the residents choose by party n not person. She said the residents know too well that only opposition ward get the limelight and get to serve by 2 political parties . She said look at Potong Pasir. Any better ? Will likely to merge under Toa Payoh n bishan GRC. If PAP win HG , it will definitely merge under AMK GRC. No more HG.

Like what PEH said , a lot of residents 'shift ' place of residence without even moving a single piece of furniture. Eg. from Braddell constituency to Aljunied then upgrade to Marine Parade . :?
