Fully agree!

thinking abt his wife & children too...

[concern2]

So what now? PAP wasting taxpayers' money that a by-election is needed?


BTW, can residents from his SMC sue him for letting us down and betraying us? We voted in good faith for him leh..

I voted for the party, not one good man.


I was just thinking about the GE and the aftermath last night, wondering why no more flyers from alternative voices once the GE was over. The alternative voices may not have access to the block notice boards, but they sure can still send flyers; but nope, nothing from anyone else except Michael Palmer who actually went on door-to-door visits.

There have also been questions on accountability and comparison between YSL’s and MP’s case. But really, in my opinion, MP earns more respect from me for owning up and facing the music, though I do not concur with his EMA.

Oh he did? I never saw him anywhere else except when he is VIP - or rather, was.

:faint: Not another one??! EMA is the \"in\" thing now issit??

Did his EMA start before or after YSL’s case. If it’s after, then I really wonder what’s going on in his mind. He has seen what the EMA has done to the reputation of a public figure as well as the party.

Obviously thought he won't be found out :evil:

Lilac66, if it is BEFORE, I also wonder what goes on in his head...nah, I rather not speculate.

This episode just let me see clearly the hypocritical side of PAP, so disgusted with their double standard! In WP case, the few ministers jumped out and "suan" WP, 处处迫人attitude. In this case, PAP some more can praise him for his honesty and asked that he be given space. I’m sure, this guy has got no other choice but to admit in the open if he still want to survive in singapore, he cannot afford to offend the big brother! I respect WP for their decisiveness to sack yaw and has set a high standard of accountability for PAP to follow suit.

wow…some of you guys really believe that he own up base of his own will?

i believe ‘something’ must had happen

at least what he did now is better than YSL
