The time has come. Execute Order 66. Our MM Lee did not speak in jest when he says that those who voted for the Opposition will regret and repent for the next 5 years. Those who take his words lightly do it to their peril.

The Jurong Town Council has dismissed claims that an employee was fired on Monday because of her involvement in events held by an opposition party.
Former customer service officer Geraldine Soh, 25, was terminated by the town council's managing agent and the move was related to her poor performance, according to the town council's general manager, Ho Thian Poh.
Soh, 25, had been an employee of ESMACO Township Management for the last three years.
However, Soh and her fiancé, Joel Kong, 26, believe that it was Soh's support for the National Solidarity Party (NSP) that had cost her her job.
The couple said tensions at her workplace started after Soh volunteered at an NSP rally on Labour Day. According to a report by The New Paper, Soh had distributed pamphlets and party merchandise at Jurong West Stadium, where she bumped into a contractor working with the town council.
She was suspended the next day on 3 May, following which she volunteered for another two NSP rallies.
Before leaving, Soh printed a list of her colleagues' contact details — which the town council deemed confidential — as she had "clicked wrongly" but had thrown it away, she said.
However, the town council's property manager, Ong Ah Hai, suspected that she had passed the data to the NSP.
"Mr Ong couldn't find the list in the wastepaper basket," said Soh. "Mr Ong then warned me that the town council would make a police report if I had passed the list to the opposition. He added that I could also be sued if I did so."
When she returned from her suspension on Monday, she was told to leave "for reasons of under-performance over a period of several months."
"This included weaknesses in attending to calls from residents and following up on calls. Counselling of the officer by her supervisors did not lead to improvement and her continuation on the job would have demoralised other staff," explained Ho, JTC's general manager, in response to media enquiries.
"We would like to clarify that this was purely a human resource management issue between ESMACO and the employee... Council members of Jurong Town Council are not involved in ESMACO's human resource decisions," he added.
Soh was quick to defend herself, however.
"But in my three years with the town council, I had not received any written notification of having performed poorly. So how can they suddenly dismiss me?" she asked.
"I still believe my involvement with NSP is partly responsible for my termination."
Soh added that while she had been told of instances when she could have performed better, it was a "common occurrence among colleagues."
Also skeptical was Kong, who remains convinced that his fiancee's termination is connected to her support for NSP. Questions began surfacing online yesterday after Kong alerted netizens and online social political websites about the incident.
The legal executive said,"Why else would she be sacked so suddenly? And why only after the General Election?"
The Ministry of Manpower has not received any complaints officially lodged by Soh, said its spokesperson.
