I believe that living simply and with contentment is the best policy during this time of economic crisis. Rupavathi Radhakrishnan (Ms)
He means well and he does have a difficult position.
Admittedly, the art of public speaking for representatives of the government of Singapore still needs work. We have not approached the standards of the United States or Europe. It is probably because they spend too much time concentrating in formulating policies for your welfare. Most of the executives in the government of Singapore sincerely want to represent the needs of Singaporeans.
Well, I guess it's time to pop the champagne, considering there's only 1 MP who has a heart for the people in her constituency. So far, we notice that the other MPs in GRCs have been pretty quiet lately. Are they waiting for 1 another to make the 1st move? Are they being gracious & considerate, waiting for the top dog in the GRC to make the 1st move? Or, are they just cluless about what's affecting people's lives these days?It may be better for you to consult his speech writer and image consultant.

MP Lily Neo has demonstrated her concern for her constituency members more often than once in parliament.
I try to question myself and my conscience before writing the texts in this forum. I am at peace with myself when the texts are submitted, so I do not find it hard to believe the things that are written. I do not believe that my words are an anatomical discharge, as it is scientifically and medical incorrect.
We have MP Wee who may have high IQ, but needs to be mindful, vigilant of his EQ when expressing himself in public which also concern matters of the heart.
Mayor Teo is another MP who is actively helping the unemployed to find jobs. Some voice their concerns, some quietly help others, and perhaps there are those who just keep quiet. It takes all kinds of people to make the world, and perhaps some of this truth is also reflected within the cohort of our MPs. We have MP Wee who may have high IQ, but needs to be mindful, vigilant of his EQ when expressing himself in public which also concern matters of the heart. Another MP that one may also associate with MP Wee, could be argued to be LBW.
MPs are supposed to represent the people in parliament. Unfortunately more often than not it isnt so, they have forgotten. The truth is in this red pore, MPs are now representing or rather represents the government. Have the electorate or the MPs gone silly or have they got it all mixed up, I dont really know, you tell me.
uncle snrcitizen, ere isn't a need to be so fierce and serious. you are scaring me man. but i do agree with you that dr lily neo is an exceptional case. if half of the pap members are like her, i have no qualms about voting for the current party.
as for now.....
You are living in dreamland. MPs is any country be it you beloved US of A works only for the main interest group.
You want to know who shows that they care about the public views? - Those who didn't make it to the Parliament/Congress. After they do, they'll forget to speak for the people they represent. Example - CST, LTK.
Oh let's not forget the monkey crap king CSJ who will never get to Parliament cos he overplayed his democracy card too much that people caught his bluff.
Dear vamjok,
Under normal circumstances, as with most of us, I would take everyone's view here as their right of expression, and even sometimes having a laugh or two reading posts from paid PAP dogs.
In the case of Division1, he came into this forum not only regurgitating PAP propaganda, but he tries to extremely hard to impress us that he significantly much more superior than anyone here.
If you have read most of his posts, you will notice he has told everyone here that he spent many years overseas - big shit. He indulges in extremely verbose writings (indicating a person of low esteem) and misuses words that he doesn't even understand the meaning of.
He thinks just by talking down at people here would enhance his image as someone of high calibre from the PAP. A person like him, with a false sense of superiority always have one critical weakness. In trying too hard to earn his pay as a PAP dog, he will make a slip, putting his foot into his own mouth and all one needs to do is to wait for him to commit the gaff.
As soon as he does so, grab him by his balls and you find him slinking away, trying to hide his inadequacies by posting more crap and take evasive action. He is doing that right now and I would encourage everyone here to squeeze his balls tighter.
Don't be suckered into believing him when he says he is expressing his "valued" viewpoints. He is a paid dog to say what he is saying and nothing else.
Any normal human being would admit his mistake like a man and move on. As expected, he displays typical PAP traits like lacking in humility and never admitting to errors.
cheers
Very well put. I have notice the same things too.
