Former presidential hopeful Tan Kin Lian has drawn the ire of netizens for an insensitive Facebook post.

In a post on Wednesday and without mentioning any names, the former NTUC chief made reference to the "false rumours of the death of a well-known Singapore personality".

He went on to recount a bizarre World War II story told to him by a Swedish friend 20 years ago before ending off the post with a "Ha,ha! Happy 47th National Day".


Within a span of four hours, his post had over 30 shares and likes respectively, and close to 60 comments.

His post sparked a strong response from netizens who felt his post was in bad taste.

Facebook user Jude Tan said that “as a former Presidential hopeful it is kind of bewildering to me personally that someone who aspires to one of the highest offices in our fair country would choose to make fun of the rumored passing away of one of Singapore's most senior politicians".

Another user Benjamin Loh added that if the post "was written in jest by a kid, we'd all probably condone it. Yet from a presidential hopeful who was supposedly going to be the head of state and represent Singapore -- his joke (out of jest nonetheless) was uncalled for, unjustified and blatantly low.”

When asked by a user what he meant by his post, Tan replied, “It means that some Singaporeans, e.g. you, do not know how to interpret any hidden message and need to have everything spelled out clearly.”

Others, however, defended Tan.

User Andrew Goh said, “Come on la, Mr Tan was just highlighting that there was a rumour only what. He never endorse it from the way I see it. Why be so sensitive on this issue?”

When contacted by Yahoo! Singapore, Tan said " I have no further comment".

[methink]

LKY is your master? Dont be shy lah pappy doggie. Just admit it.

 

[Scrooball (clone)]

We should sympathize with him. He lost his deposit and made himself a laughing stock during the election.

 

[neddy]

Why make a bug fuss? It is part of normal politics.

LKY himself also make fun of himself and others, such as the BS about him raising up from his casket shittalk.

I recalled that during his days as a PAP cadre, he was rejected as MP material by that "well-known Singapore personality".
It is hard to forgot when ones has drank bitter tea.


If you make fun of people like those from Mudland, Pinoyland and other Asians, be prepared for the return shots.

TKL really behave like small kid. Unbecoming of a presidential candidate.

Isn't that wy he lost his deposit when he contested? Doesn't that show what he is?

You mean daft sheep need MORE confirmation?

I do not side a person when I 'know' he is NO GOOD.

Just like your Grand Master whose bad karma is coming to haunt him.

You can't undo what you have done bad, there is no forgiveness even if he seeks for it but ppl like you can't seem to learn.

So be it.

How about LHL? behaving like a baby. Unbecoming of prime ministar.

How did LHL behave like a baby sir. Please explain clearly here so we can all understand you.

TKL can be quite clownish. Actually who ever was the one who convinced him to join the presidential race can probably sell ice to the Eskimo. No disrespect for the Eskimos but that guy was just such a good sale person

maybe the Rumour started by him ...

His Swedish friend maybe non exist one.

He using a Parable lah ... to ask people to

vote for him ...

Often acted like a blur king(just like a baby). At times very dumb when he as PM should be addressing an issue. Need his emperor father and so many ministars to spoon feed him!

Not a leader with a head to decide on matters as PM. Very lost with no sense of direction. Talk rubbish some more! What a useless and spoon fed baby! Unbecoming of a PM! A fool!

 

[jiangrenhua]

Anybody who associates which rumours usually ended up no good.

 

[laksaboy]

Comparing LKY to the Nazis is an insult to the Nazis.

Actually, the comparison is not too off-mark. Both LKY and the Nazis believed in eugenics, in the concept of 'selective breeding' to produce the Übermensch. Remember the Graduate Mother scheme?

Good genes and selective breeding. We've seen how well that turned out:

 

[laksaboy]

Sure, let's joke that your father has passed away.

LKY must have fucked your mother and begotten you. You're the illegitimate love-child of Harry, aren't you?

No wonder you're so upset about others wishing him dead.

Sometimes we have to take it with a 'pinch of salt', I used to joked to my colleagues when I am reading the obituary in the papers, they ask, why are you reading this, my answer "looking for your announcement"..it is a joke!. no malice! get it!.

But, TKL should have known better, he is a public figure, a well fed, well bred, "white canine", should show some pedigree class, than spreading 'hearsay'. ):-
