Maybe GY wants to retire on personal reason?
Bro Serendipity,
Welcome back. Your appraisals from the deepest reaches of PAP central, though far and between, is very much appreciated. I remember you in 2006 when you mentioned the emergency meeting PAP had with regards to their backfiring tactics on the JG issue. Thank you and hope you can do your part in helping the opposition/Singaporean cause.
In this forum nearly a month ago I revealed that LTK was leaving Hougang to contest the GRC. No one had revealed that or even hinted that before. That info did not come from WP members. It came from a govt source. Rest assured that GY and the rest of the establishment were well aware. This is the govt of Singapore that we are talking about. This is the same govt that bugged Ryan Goh's house in Perth and interviewed the shopkeeper near his daughter's place of abode about her demeanor. This is the same govt that entered Francis Seow's hotel room in the US and emptied his trash can in his room. The only people that seemed surprised are his party faithful except for an inner circle. Only the full slate was not finalised.
If this Govt wanted to save GY, they would have done it. All it takes is GY to move as they did with LSS.
you need to quote a third party to make your source more believable.
Surprised that you don't know.
This was the result of a disinformation campaign that took forever to implement. LTK was supposed to lead a "sneak" attack in Moulmein Kallang. Also, it was not supposed to be concentrated effort. Rather Sylvia and Chen was supposed to take Aljunied while LTK went to Moulmein Kallang with his "surprise" commando team.
This was fed to the moles who brought the poison back to their master.
On Nomination Day, LTK took the wrong bus and ended up in the wrong nomination centre. The rest is history.
the title is probably valid and correct. the reason is to bluff bluff rid georgie yoyeo (shaky yeo) and later during the impending presidential erection, usher georgie to be the next president - with lower starting pay, of course. and yes! without a 2nd income fr pension like the leechy prataman who is probably paid more than $7M a yr for doing nothing much but just prata-ing in a very luxurious istana.
Bro serendiptiy, whats the take on TPY-Bishan and most of all the biggest black out that is Tampines all this time?
Tampines will go to PAP for 2 reasons. GMS doesn't hv a great team and Tampines has a lot of new citizens from India, China and Philippines. All the new citizens will vote for PAP. Remove the new citizens from the equation and MBT is toast.
My view is that TPY-Bishan will be a close call. The PAP strategy team after their detailed analysis thinks that it will scrape through. There are 3 precincts which will be crucial. It will be that close.
Somehow, my view is different. I think CST will win it. Apparently his doctors had advised him not to exert himself because of health problems.

Suddenly for no apparent reason, Lim Swee Say was moved to East Coast and GY was retained at Aljunied. Apparently the decision was taken by LHL, TCH and WKS. No one knows the rationale for that decision.
There are 2 theories going around:
One, they didn't want to sacrifice Lim Swee Say and wanted a safe seat for him.
Second, some sections in the PAP believed that GY was gaining international stature (much more than the PM himself) and wanted to cut down his size. He was also considered to be GCT's man and LHL wanted him out respectably.
