Serious Lim Tean's New Party Will Return CPF at 55
- Thread starter Kee Chew
- Start date
I was helping out with the Lion Dance Troupe at the CC then but left when Mr Mah BT came on as chairperson of whatever CC and MC. PAP could get away with 'politicising' community centres/clubs previousLEE, but in present day Singapore, they should be taken to task for doing it. Potong Pasir was made to suffer by the unscrupulous PAP. It's less obvious in Hougang and Aljunied GRC today. This should not have been done. The manipulative $$$elf-$$$erving PAP should be punished.
Just listen to this PAP man.
PAP LEEders and woof-woofs call Singaporeans 'STUPID' and 'CANNOT BE TRUSTED' or INCAPABLE of LOOKING AFTER THEMSELVES. PAP loves to look down on and slap the faces of Singaporeans.
Why dont u get yr masters to introduce the soylent Green option? let them spend the money and if they at wits end at 56 yrs old...put them down,,so they will not have to worry about where the next meal is coming from,,,easy peasy,,,
70% vote for pap time and time again,,,therefore they are stupid and cannot be trusted and totally incapable of making their own decision,,,,,better to let pap look after their retirement money,,if the ppl spend it all its their fault..if pap spends it all,,its investment,,,
Take money from cpf and put it in some high return pension fund.like blackwater, kkr, maddof.
The entire PAP Old Guard would agree with what the honourable Mr Mah did. Here's an excerpt from the Emeritus Senior Minister's memoirs that was recently published.
ON PAP’S FIRST ELECTORAL DEFEAT AT THE ANSON BY-ELECTION
What was the discussion with Lee Kuan Yew after the result?
There was a post-mortem. And that was how you learnt again. It was a quick post-mortem, but we all knew the reasons. But it was also looking forward. So, you learnt that what had gone, had gone. We called a meeting of all MPs and the question was: What do we do now in Anson? Do we continue to run the community centre (CC) in Anson or do we pass it on to JBJ (JB Jeyaretnam)? I felt that we should pass on the CC to JBJ. And many of the young ones felt so. I thought we should be fair - he had won, so pass on everything to him. The CC was part of Anson and we should pass it on. British parliamentary rules - accept it and shake his hand. Write him a congratulatory letter and so on. That was the thinking of the younger ones, the MPs.
LKY (Lee Kuan Yew) never scolded us but he asked the older ones. And they said, no, we do not pass it on. We keep it, this is our base. You pass it on to him, he would be entrenched and we would never win Anson back again. This cannot be done. So, you learn. Yet, what is the reason to justify keeping it? This is part of government facility. CC is part of the government - you do not pass on part of the government to the other side. We young naive ones thought the CC was part of the constituency’s institutions and we had to pass it on. The older ones said, no.

I believe genuine politicians and true leaders will understand that he who does no self-reflection learns nothing. They will also know that he who keeps harping and putting the blame on others ultimately achieves nothing.

As always...spoken like a FULL??? The He and he and him...
True opposition leaders are few and far between,,,,and PAP always play dirty....there is no perfect person,,,but I will settle for a better opposition if there are any
Agree...but the NOW is very different from the THEN. IMHO, the current key leaders of the various alternative parties are substantial individuals.
The excerpt clearly stated that the Old Guard disagreed with ESM Goh's suggestion of turning the CC over to JBJ.
ESM Goh was young and naive back then. So his mistake in showing kindness to an dangerous oppie is forgivable.
