Hougang By-Eelection & Impact of YSL Saga II

[halsey02]

Constitution experts here, does redrawing boundaries so soon after a GE before a BE put you into a constitutional minefield?

Anywhere else on planet earth, it would be impossible, but remember this is Uniquely YOUR SINgapore!

I really hope you can read Chinese better but no, that's not what Zaobao reported. It reported in a definite tone for WP while more subtle tone in NSP's case.

Goh Meng Seng

Mr. Goh

Scroobal is saying PAP is now terrified that a 3-corner fight will split PAP's votes while WP's votes will remain largely intact, with the exception of NS coming in, which she isn't. Is that the reason why you're now singing a different tune? i.e. You're now saying it should be a straight fight between PAP and WP, which is a position I did not hear from you previously. If you've stated this position before, please share with me again (I must have missed that). However, if this is a new position of yours, can you come clean on your change of heart?

GD says you're paid to do this. I don't know whether this is true. But this is a serious allegation and I'm concerned for you. If it's not true, you must do something to protect your integrity, no? So far you did not even respond to GD so I'm assuming you missed that. Please also do not say you ignore it so as not to lend credibility to a wild accusation. Otherwise, your silence will be construed as admission, and not dissimilar to how YSL handled his adultery allegations.

sounds like a good reason for me to go AMK GRC for some kopi tioh

Field Marshall (minus 9 ranks) cum General of the Armies (minus 10 ranks) cum General of the Air Force (minus 9 ranks) cum Fleet Admiral (minus 9 ranks) Goh Meng Seng thinks it will happen. Anyone wants to take wagers that it will?

 

[Fook Seng]

I am keenly interested to find out whether using an ex-incumbent's debauchery habits sacked by his party or income inequality and high cost of living would make a better pitch in an election.

 

[Ramseth]

As of now, all signs are pointing to no BE or rather, there's no sign of any BE.

 

[Kinana]

There will be a BE this year, its only a matter of time.

GMS's analysis is basically good and sound. Things should play out the way he laid it out. NSP will stay out.
WP will likely win but don't be surprised if they do lose.

 

[HTOLAS]

That Desmond Choo, nephew of the disgraced racist criminal Choo Wee Khiang, have been given much prominence might point to the contrary. Also, there was no Porn's announcement of an increase in COE quota.

As of now, all signs are pointing to no BE or rather, there's no sign of any BE.

GMS' article (sorry, can't termed it as analysis) is as good and sound as the above statement of yours in bold. Are there any good reasons why you're stating something so obvious and can't be wrong? It's like saying "If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure." Sound familiar? Or this one "The vast majority of our imports come from outside the country."

Wow! No wonder Sam said you're wise. Now I finally can see for myself why you're wise. Very wise indeed.

excellent co-relation, bro deepblue!

bro deepblue, another sharp observation!

know what, i think they are so tripped mentally by their own cleverness they don't realise the short-circuited lack of logic in their pronouncements!

peppered with lots of motherhood statements like the sun rises in the east, that is the sad state of calibre amongst many in opposition. sincere but lacking up there, graduates not withstanding.

word is that Ong Ye Kung must be brought in asap otherwise the 4G batch of 2011 from Heng Swee Kiat to Kee Chiu, Tan Jin Chuan, Lawrence Wong will not be complete.

I hear Yeo Chu Kang incumbent Seng Han Thong may be asked to retire for the induction of Ong.... so more than 1 BE so as to better gauge ground grievances is still parochial or more broad based one year after the GE 2011...

hahaha...if my idol says so .....it must be true.......lol.

hi elephanto sir. Indeed, these motherhood statements are just sickening and insulting.

Back to real issues. BE in two constituencies appears increasingly likely and OYK is indeed the most likely person to come in, although I'm not sure if SHT will be sacrificed. OYK is highly rated (at least by the PAP) and his union work means he could be the successor to LSS. His background is also interesting and hopefully, he stays true to being someone who has a heart for the people.

If the PAP are serious about re-inventing itself and re-connect with the people (especially the younger ones), that's a good sign.

I'm not hedging my bets bro cos I never touted myself as an analyst in the first place.
I am honestly telling you what I think. WP will likely win but I won't be surprised if they lose either given their bad performance so far.

Ok sir, if you say so. I'm sure after the BE, you're either right, or wrong.

I also no hedging hor, sir. Haha!

An educated ah-beng who cannot tell the when to use "hope" and when to use "wish".

bro, 有影无？

me thought the drumbeat should be coming from the ground, and that would be the best pitch.

 

[zhihau]

Back to real issues. BE in two constituencies appears increasingly likely

me think this idea was floated by TCB initially, 2 separate locations holding BE at the same time.
Hougang SMC is a given, but the second location simply doesn't warrant one at this point in time.
the incumbent can take a gamble, Tanjong Pagar GRC would be one of the best bet
