We heard from the PAP people saying President got no political power right !

So what is the president's chief task, to look after the reserves only ?

Now we take a look at what is the meaning of safeguarding the reserves !

If let say PAP becomes oppo party by next GE or kick out of the parliament, what happens to the reserves ? Also no more ?

To safeguard the reserves, the elected president though got no power, he must produce annual report of the reserves and the movement of the reserves---whether local or overseas, in short he must know the details of the reserves, and he must have the total control over the reserves ! This is the gist right !

Any political party becomes govt will not affect the reserves, this should be the way right ! If not how sinkapore survives right

What Dr Tan or Tan Kin Lian or Tony Tan will attract certain groups of voters is all bullshits !

In fact, all the voters need to be educated that the elected president must able to give the voters the account of the reserves !

Now, will Tony Tan have another view on presidency, will he say elected President is deadly important to sinkapore survival to threaten the voters ?
But what about those PAP people who said President of sinkapore has no political power?

Three -cornered fight is good for Mr Tan Kin Lian becos PAP votes will split among Tony and DR Tan, and the oppo votes will go to Mr Tan Kin Lian !

Whoever qualified dares to do the right things will win votes, Mr Tan Kin Lian looks most promising so far, and so the for the sake of sinkapore and the reserves, stop smearing Mr Tan Kin Lian.
who else got no past right?
We are talking about doing the right thing and not nitpicking people's poo right !
You will regret if the next president is still very PAP man !
You still want the reserves to be very personal issues or transparent to the public ?
Look at the bigger picture my friends !

Add oil Mr Tan Kin Lian ! Mr Tiu will contribute ideas to you when the campaign is near !

In a way, he'll be worse, because he can give the PAPzis a veneer of respectability that SRN is incapable of.

The difference is Tony Tan is actually smart. Considering he helms GIC (or was it Temasek?) this (lack of independence + pro-PAP + he is genuinely smart ) is a recipe for disaster

TKL has always been a PAP man. You have not been reading very well. He himself stated it in his defense.


You will regret if the next president is still very PAP man !

Give Tony Tan another GY's treatment - vote him out and make them malu! It will be great to see PAP die the 2nd time within a year.

TKL has always been a PAP man.

There are different grades of PAP men.

Voting for WP Gerald Giam or ex-WP Eric Tan carries very profound implications.

Actually I do not mind voting for Tony Tan even though I have always felt that he is worth more than a mere President.

Possibly I will choose him over TKL and TCB.

Promoting hair cream ..." I can't give you anything, but Tony Tan, Tony Tan" ( to the tune of Stylistics " I can't give you anything.."), better than the quiet, immeasurable pratas & chapatis.:biggrin:

Voting for Tony Tan is a no brainer. Might as well vote for a real dog as president.

Here's a little perspective on TT's voter appeal. In 1984, he ran against independent candidate Stanley Mariadass in Sembawang and won 77% of the votes. A landslide, one might say.

Except that SM did not campaign at all. In fact, he disappeared after nomination day - no rallies, no walkabouts. Visits to his flat were unanswered. I don't even remember seeing him when results were announced. Everyone was sure he would lose his deposit. Instead he got a respectable 22% for doing nothing, reportedly traumatizing a then up and coming cabinet minister.

Rumour had it that SM had run on a bet worth a thousand or two above the election deposit. If so, he would have been a very happy man on results night.

The same poll shows SR Nathan with 19% of the votes compared to 18% for TKL and 16% for Dr TCB. Yup, this is a DAMN SOLID poll :eek:

With a sure-win & feel-good poll like this, that's why the PAP has no need & no use for a nanational referendum!

I have to agree with that...TT looks and behaves like a gentleman....can fool alot of voters if he runs.
