Is the introduction of a young PAP candidate TPL, a precursor to the introduction of another young Lee candidate in the next GE?
does not look too gd bro...problem wif singaporeans tend to hv a soft heart n not think wif their brains when it comes to these sort of emotional tugstring tactics...think the tide may now be turning back in paps favour...however i still believe it all boils down to tonight's telly broadcasts...10pm tonight is D Day bro!!...fingers n toes crossed LHL fails to deliver...

GY reminds me abit of Chris Patten when Patten lost his seat n cabinet position during the UK GE in the early 90s when the political tide was slowly but inevitably turning agst tory rule...however GY has not lost as yet...
It's lost. May 7 is just a formality.
Wow, I have to give credit to your confidence. If he loses, he should give Lim Hwee Hua a slap.
not sure abt the timeline i.e. whether GY was minister at MOH when his brother prof PPB Yeo apparently suddenly packed up n left the medical faculty of NUS leaving for california, usa for good or so it wld seem??...big mystery as to why Prof peter yeo suddenly upped n left wif his family when he was a high flyer at NUS med faculty, perhaps even wif possibility of taking over fm the then VC lim pin...one other curious thing, apparently prof peter yeo's name was still on the med faculty list for yrs after he had left for cali...
the more i read n hear...the more GY reminds me of Chris Patten's case in the UK...how ironic that GY fell out wif the same man who once set him up in public as the committed singaporean philosopher/soldier...also it spoke volumes that it was apparently only due to GY's influence that the 2nd mrs. gks agreed to the public funneral for dr gks...
If it is LHL doing it, I don't think there will be much change. The crying, apologies etc have become old hat.
At this point, the only person who can shift the result is MM. Something like MM coming out to do the party political broadcast and do something unthinkable like say sorry and ask for another chance.

not surprisingly gayle was co-opted by the paps wif a scholarship(s)...most likely in ivy league land now after leaving oxbridge...all courtsey of the govt read pap...recall mfa supremo kausikan had a bit of a soft spot for her when she 'tangled swords' wif him during her salad days...
dont count yr chickens bro...however truly hope aljunied at the v least falls when i wake up on the 8th...
There is no mystery bro. Heard from the grapevine that prof Yeo was so against GY selling his soul to the PAP, that prof Yeo uprooted and moved to the US.

thanks for the tip. will watch the 10pm broadcast
btw, interesting nick. you see yourself as a singaporean rubirosa?
quite out of character bro fm what i hear...prof yeo was heading to the v top of the pile at nus...there was no need for him to suddenly pack up n uproot his whole family in such a short time...gather it caused quite a stir at the nus med faculty at the time...find it quite incredible that he left for the states based on a pull factor rather than a push factor...
only in my dreams bro...only in my dreams!!

I forced myself to read the Straits Times today.
Yes, GY is aiming his comments at the PAP. It is a genuine gesture, honest, and has the added advantage of allowing him to step down in a magnanimous and statesmanlike manner (if he loses, that is)
LSL on the other hand, if you read the details of his so called apology and FB comments...is not saying anything new at all. Its all just a shiny empty shell, he did not commit to anything much. His solution to cost of living and a better society is that Singaporeans should become more gracious, do more volunteer work, exchange our cars for public transport, and then give up our seats in public transportation to the weak, elderly, handicapped. He's throwing it all back on the people.
Many people missed a very important point ie. the possibility of cheating. Once cheating comes into play, it could easily swing the decision.
I'm always very disappointed with postings like this. I believe PAP will try to twist everything in their favor before polling and counting. But I also believe at polling and count, PAP is fair. If you believe PAP cheat, please go lodge police report, instead of spreading unfounded rumors here affecting the confidence of opposition supporters in this forum.
Luckily i jumped ship to save my career by switching from Aljunied to East Coast GRC :p:p:p
