Old Autocrat is up to no good as usual.
Well the stakes are high, he needs his son to carry on as paramount leader so that his evil deeds and ill gotten wealth will not be exposed.
Hence despite his advanced age, he has decided to join in the procedural elections and threaten peasants to pay a price if they balk Baba Yeo.
Old Autocrat threatens to depress property values if Baba Yeo is ousted and will withhold essential services and turn Aljunied Red Light District into a slum. Mouthpiece joined in the fray and subtly commented Hougang and Potong Pasir are indeed slum areas. We are puzzled with Old Autocrat's antics because he could simply outlaw the freak election results as he has done so in Cheng San many full moons ago.
However Old Autocrat reveals he is actually worried for Baba Yeo. Baba Yeo, despite rebranded as an intellect is a paper tiger. He is unable to connect to the working class peasants and insists peasants address him as 'His Excellency'. As a Baba, he is unable to converse properly in Mandarin (despite his high IQ) and using Melayu will further alienate the chink peasants. He prefers the foreign service and loves to travel and sip wine with anglo saxons, leaving the dirty work to his junior GRC lackeys. Aloof and arrogant, it is small wonder he underperformed during the last elections.
This is a major gabra, Baba Yeo thought Low will be contented to be a opportunistic parasite in Hougang. Using the old gerrymandering and vote buying with pork barrel politics, he looked set to defeat the WP team and the party with the anglo saxons will continue. However all that came crashing down when news poured in that Low will be personally leading the Workers' Party charge against him.
