Dr Tan's strength is in his old constituency,,the problem his old seat is under Tartman,,and tartman is very popular. so Ah bock is between a rock and a hard place. I do see a positive is This Oppo Front should contest Holland Bukit Timah...(just my 2 cents) bcos Vivian is not that popular,,and the atas folks seem to support the oppos more than the HDB ones, but since its the west etc,,,AH bock might be able to draw in the crowd,,,but all in all the West is a tough nut to crack,,,all damn pro PAP,,,or AH Bock has to target the weak PAP MPs,,but that also no guarantee
You provided a good analysis of the Western Sinkieland. To win a GRC is very difficult and only Mr Low TK did it after 20 years in Hougang.
All depending on sinkie livelihoods after 2015 till the next one, if sinkies live a reasonable good life then the new coalition has no chance of winning any wards
Try single wards like Potong Pasir, Bukit Batok and Bukit Panjang. A big swing of say 6,000 votes will be enough for the new coalition to cross the 50% mark hence winning a single seat
Using all the financial resources for contesting a GRC into a single ward will have impact too, it’s still the money who make the sinkie life better and more affordable living. The best is don’t talk too much about democracy.
The main challenges is for them to win one seat. Failing to do so, this new coalition is consider as unsuccessful
