The quick narrative almost immediately after the election result was announced was this:
1. The new citizens caused the 15% vote swing. Blame them.
2. The daft Singaporeans caused the 15% vote swing. Blame them.
3. The old folks with the Pioneer Gen package cause the 15% vote swing. Blame them.
4. The Opposition parties have no good policies. Blame them.
5. The Opposition parties are fragmented. Blame them.
6. PAP has done a good job to recover the lost ground. Praise them.
7. The young voters caused the 15% vote swing. Blame them.
8. The middle ground wants the PAP to continue as the single party in parliament and is threatened by Oppostion who wants to replace the govt.
Now, now......stop blaming Singaporeans. Stop blaming the young voters. Stop blaming the pioneer generation. Stop blaming the new citizens.
The ground speaks a very different story. There is no middle ground swing to the PAP. The fact is that the middle ground is squeezed by the rising cost of living and job opportunities had shrunk and the economy isn't looking that good. They should be concerned with the failing policies of the ruling party to upturn the downturn and improve the lives of the middle ground and their children and children's children.
Stop blaming the new citizens. The percentage of new citizens are generally offset by the emigration and renouncing of citizenships of an equal number of Singaporeans.
Most of the increase in Singapore population that are choking our amenities and infrastructure are Permanent Residents (PR) and Employment pass (EP) and Work Permit workers (WP). These foreigners cannot vote! Only citizens of Singapore are allowed to vote.
The old folks of the pioneer generation have not increased significantly from 4 years ago when the last election was held.
Most of them in 2011 had voted the PAP and they would vote the same way now. But the true fact is that the vote swing by this group to the PAP does not add up to the 15% increase in PAP popularity.
Now, let's talk about the young voters. Young voters are faced with ever increasing difficulty in getting affordability housing and job opportunities and they can't even afford to buy a car with the COE so high and hire purchase regulations make it more difficult to buy a car.
There are so many unresolved national issues and this affects the population across all age groups and all social strata.
So, stop buying into the red herrings planted by ghost-writers on the online media and across the churches and coffeeshops and resident committees (RCs), and start blaming Singaporean voters and New Citizens. This is the official narrative they want you to follow. To divide and continue to conquer.
Meanwhile, how did this 69.6% come about then? Well, if the above do not add up, which they certainly don't, then something else is at play here and it is hidden in plain sight, if you will just open your eyes wide enough and use your brain a little bit more. Now, even PAP cadres do not expect this landslide swing to the PAP. In fact, no one in their true self and right mind will expect such a landslide. I do not see any euphoria or thumbs up after the election result from the ground. There is no silent majority. There is no middle ground voters. All this is just a smoke screen and smoke and mirrors and bait and switch and a masterfully choreographed magic show.
Stop blaming the 69.9% because there is no such a majority. It is an artificially created magic figure to retain power and continue with the divide and conquer ideology.
Once you guys wake up from this deceit, no ghost writers or voodoo magic can subdue you and you will be free from the clutches of deceit and captivity. Open your eyes. Hear the ground sentiments. Make up your own mind. Do not be fooled. Be your own judge. There is no 69.9%. Impossible!
