Ivory tower MP Cythia Phua

Cynthia Phua called cops on the boy who threw a chair in MPS session.

She had asked his son a series of questions : "Who are you? What are you doing? Why are you not working?". The mother explained that she wanted to answer the questions but was not given a chance. The mother and son said that they felt like they were "being scolded". The mother was working as a cleaner at $400 a month salary (Singapore has no minimum wage laws) and lost her income when she broke her wrist fixing a ceiling fan.

Ivory Tower tenant # Murali

In the spirit of GE, I have decided to share my story and experiences. As a first time voter, I know that every vote counts, and I want to make sure my vote goes to someone I can trust my next 5 years with as a Singaporean. I have never been shy about politics, and I have friends who know my stance about it. But my experience has made me think twice about whether Mr. Murali Pillai is empathetic enough to be my MP.

Back story: I live with my mum (in her 60s) in a one room rental flat in Bukit Batok and she is separated from my dad (late 70s). Complicated story, but they were never married. As my parents start to get older, it became more clear to me that no matter what they have done in the past, I have to care for them as their only child. For years, right after I graduated from poly, I worked hard to climb the corporate ladder, with hopes of being able to look after my parents.

When Mr. Pillai was my MP, I went to his Meet-The-People session (MPS), hoping he could help to appeal to HDB to enable me to purchase a flat to house my elderly parents, my grand aunt (late 80s, staying in another rental flat), and myself. I understand that I was not eligible under the joint single scheme as I'm in my early twenties, and my parents do not have sufficient income/cpf and are too old. I was even willing to pay with my CPF, and have my mum co-own the flat. I knew if given the assistance, I just have to continue to work hard to provide for my 3 elderly loved ones. They are old, and they deserve the best from me.

Mr. Pillai asked me why my parents are not married. I explained to him that that is my parents' affairs and I just want to provide a big enough space for me to care for my elderly loved ones. My parents have had purchased flats before but they have lost the flats for some unfortunate reasons in the past (retrenchment and scammed), which is why my mum and I landed up in a rental.
He told me right in the face that I can only blame my parents for not planning properly, and for putting me, as a child, in this situation. I was shocked, and so was the volunteer on duty who was helping me during MPS. I was close to tears and tried to beg him to hear me out and justify my situation.
He told me (someone in her early twenties) to get married, as that was the only solution.

He then told the volunteer to escort me out because "this young lady is clearly emotional".

I did seek help from Housing & Development Board on my own. Things got hard without an MP's appeal because I was told to prove that my mum didn’t own her past purchase or to provide proof that she was scammed. But, how do I reach out to the scammer to provide proof to HDB? I was at wits end, and gave up entirely.
Mr pillar is right. Trailer park trash breed irresponsibly n why should the state pay for their fuck ups? Point 2. Old ppl in singkieland benefits the most from pap policies with high property prices etc n low income tax. Now old farts want pension etc. Than in their working years why never advocate for 50% income tax to fund a pension plan? They expect the current generation to fund them?

SINGAPORE: The People's Action Party's (PAP) prospective new candidate Ivan Lim has decided not to contest in the General Election, after online criticism about his conduct during his time in National Service, among other accusations.

In a statement on Saturday night (Jun 27), the PAP said party secretary-general Lee Hsien Loong has accepted his decision to withdraw.

Mr Lim, in a letter to Mr Lee, cited various allegations made about his conduct and behaviour.

"Following my clarification this morning, further allegations have emerged against me," Mr Lim wrote. "These new allegations are baseless."

He added: "I recognise that the controversy over my candidacy has eclipsed the core issues of what this election should be about - Singapore's future and the difficult steps we have to take to recover from COVID-19.

"The controversy has also caused intense pain and stress for my family. I cannot put my family through this. I thank the party for giving me this opportunity to serve."

Criticism surfaced online after Mr Lim was introduced on Wednesday as one of the PAP's 27 new potential candidates. He was the first batch of new faces unveiled by the party for the 2020 General Election.

Mr Lim, 42, was accused of being arrogant, elitist and lacking compassion when he was an officer during National Service.

The general manager with Keppel Offshore and Marine was also accused online of being involved in the company's bribery case in Brazil. Mr Lim had said earlier on Saturday that the allegation against him is "completely baseless and untrue".

As for the stories about him during National Service, Mr Lim said that "people can have different perspectives of the same incident", while explaining his stand in one of the incidents raised online.

Mr Lim's decision to withdraw came just hours after he addressed the criticisms in a press note issued by the PAP, saying he was "determined to stay the course" and to serve if elected.

"I accept that I can always do better and I am willing to learn. I will take this experience to heart and do my best to prove myself to voters and all Singaporeans," he said on Saturday afternoon.

His comments came after Deputy Prime Minister and PAP first assistant secretary-general Heng Swee Keat said during a morning walkabout that he would like to see Mr Lim come out to clarify the allegations so that people can hear both sides of the story.

PAP vice-chairman Masagos Zulkifli was also asked about Mr Lim during a press conference on Friday.

"I think it is important for the candidates who may have been alleged to be something, or other, to also prove themselves," said Mr Masagos.

“And I think it is not a moment in their career, or their time with people that define them, but as a person throughout their life, and also an opportunity for them if, they have done something in the past, to redeem themselves."

Mr Lim's decision not to contest in the General Election was first reported by Chinese daily Lianhe Zaobao, and later confirmed by the PAP in a statement.

CONTROVERSY HAS BEEN "UNFORTUNATE": PM LEE

In a letter to Mr Lim accepting his decision to withdraw, Prime Minister Lee said the controversy surrounding his candidature has been "unfortunate".

"Ideally, there would have been a fair and deliberate consideration of these allegations," said Mr Lee.

"Unfortunately, the nature of the campaign is such that we do not have time for a thorough investigation. The allegations spread like wildfire online, eclipsing the serious life and death issues we must grapple with."

Mr Lee said that he respects Mr Lim's decision to withdraw.

"I regret that you and your family have had to bear such stress during this period. I hope Singaporeans will give you and your family the peace and privacy to recover, and welcome your continued contribution to our society," Mr Lee added.

The feminazis invaded and AWARE neutered the men.

Mrs LKY was a beacon of truth and light to all wives. May she rest in peace.

Can't say the same for her daughter in law.
Not all men are as neutered as you would claimed. But it is easy to spot a pussified man when they are with their wife or gf due to some behaviorial traits that they displayed. I have totally no respect for such men. It brings down the status and impression of all men.

I believe that it is very important for Singaporeans to vote strategically, in order to deny the PAP of a two-third majority, to prevent the PAP from making amendments to the SG Constitution as and when it suits its Agenda, such as the reserved Presidential Elections.
To vote strategically, the voters must be educated enough to know that mainstream media is a PAP controlled media. If they believe all the crap from the mainstream media and allow it to brainwash them to the core. How are you suppose to vote strategically? There are many gullible and misinform mofos.

Ivan sets high expectations for both himself and his men. It's a pity that his men and junior officers, pussies as they are, decide to attack him now when politicians are eager to canvass for votes.

Ivan would likely be fed to the sharks to appease the masses. It's a loss for Singapore if Ivan can't get voted into Parliament. We need MPs to set high standards for sinkies, instead of indulging them in their whims and loser attitudes.
Sure, they set very high stardard, of living, for themselves and on their own salary.

Well, his "high standard" isn't very well-liked by his men. How do they select an officer? based on what?

Oh really?

If this is true, don't think she is enjoying her morning breakfast today.

As for humble brag Ivan, probably crying to both his mother and wife.

That would be my guess. I have been told that Whore Jinx easily succumbs to sweet talk and flattery. Which explains her many stupid investments. If u have a sweet tongue, u con that bitch into buying ice from an Eskimo. The fact that this guy Ivan was not even fired or disciplined for the Brazilian bribery scandal, much less sneaked into a GRC to earn $16k a month is a testament to how powerful his godparent is. Since Keppel is owned by Temasek, I would guess its her. She is one of the very few that can protect his job and also try to get him into politics.

oppies, do not rejoice. instead, weep loudly as this insignificant saga indicates sinkie netizens are still concerned about pappies staying in power. if sinkie netizens are not concerned with who joins pap for the erection ticket it means they fuckcare about the pap. but this goes to show that sinkies are indeed concerned about the quality of pap candidates as they believe these candidates will be their respective mp’s the day after erection. it also means oppies are fucked because any larry, curly, moe can join, and sinkies fuckcare as they know chances of these jokers winning are so low or non-sexistent as they continue to languish in the gutter. sinkies are heartfully and sextra concerned that pap candidates who are placed on the pedestal are the mp’s they want, thus they make their voices heard loud and clear, gutter or no gutter politics notwithstanding.
hanor, but it could also be said that sinkies are not daft (and that includes oppos) that they would allow some uncaring, condescending sob to sneak into parleement under false impressions - regardless of which party they are from :rolleyes:

My secret squirrel informed me that Ivan licks old pussies well. Especially the manly ones.
