TRP tried to takeover SDA?
- Thread starter HellAngel
- Start date
confirmed that once reform party deal is done, chiam would be taken over by jeyaretnam. the excuse would be his failing health.
Reform Party should join the alliance first and start demanding for political power in SDA after the next GE when we see their elections results. If RP did very well in terms of % of votes, Chiam or others might be willing to play a secondary role and let Jeyaretnam take charge.
anyway it's easy to take over the group from inside than outside.

Nothing wrong for Kenneth Jeyaretnam to take over the leadership of SDA, if they can work together. What is more important than his own health!
Mrs Chiam, Lina, should contest for Potong Pasir single ward since she is a familiar face there and has helped her husband in the 12-member CEC and town council duties before.
Let Mr Chiam enjoy the success.

SPP is Chiam's political party. SDA is a convenient vehicle to form lose alliances to contest the elections. The only reason that SDA exist is because of Chiam tenure with PP. SDA without Chiam is hollow. NSP moved out because they know that SDA will not effective without a healthy Chiam.
It also the reason why KJ was negotiating with Chiam and not with SDA stakeholders. The trouble with a formal body is the need to consult with each and every stakeholder even when they have no value. Obviously Desmond and the others have no idea about the equation.

I wonder what sort of political leader would KJ make if he goes around asking and taking over people's position which he had not helped built. There were allegations of him doing that in TRP and now SDA?
What do we call people who snatches other people's things when we are in Primary or Secondary School?

From what I see, SDA does not seen effective in bringing the oppositions together. Besides, the common enemy mindset, I think each of the opposition leaders are only for themselves.
So both of them not fighting for one GRC anymore? This would dilute their mass support and may even create a 3 corner fight?

I agree.
After all it was KJ himself who said that if a political party after 20+ years only had 2 mps in parliament, the leaders would have been changed.
We have great hopes for him as a strong opposition leader, but he should also walk the talk and back up his party's ability and fortitude with election results.
Who cares. The PAP's time will continue. All the time in the past, there were many opposition parties, but usually 2 or 3 would be stronger than the rest (usually other 7 - 8). Now 5 opposition parties all relatively the same strength. None stronger than the 2 or 3 back then or another now. Many opposition is normal, but equally divided is a problem. just when PAP was about to fall. Wish NSP can continue to recruit.
Good luck S'poreans.

You're probably right that PAP will continue but I suppose being voters we need to also see how the candidate deal with people.
If the rumour about KJ's behaviour is true then he is not much different from some political party members which we always complain about.
I really pity Chiam, after contributing so much to the alternative side of politics and creating that little 'opening' for opposition to come in, all he gets are betrayal after betrayal. Is there really no true honest people who can be politician that can treat others with respect and without motive?

chiam brought it upon himself if he set himself up for betrayal. he trusts wrong people.
his wife, lina chiam might try to replace him. but now with jeyaretnam inside the mix, a bit complicated liao the whole succession.
hahaha he would make a sneaky opposition. he should just have joined pap!
Our beloved Chiam can't find anyone better to take over Potong Pasir than his wife. Either he can't find a suitable successor from SPP for PP or he think Mrs Chiam is the best bet to win this SMC again after him or he just want to pass his seat to his family.
everybody practice nepotism.

What makes you so sure that he had not?
If he had found the wife to be suitable for politics, she would have joined even before his medical condition. These politician are hoping to use sometime like 'reference power?'. Just because it is a relative, the other people is suppose to be a good politican because of what, gene? We already got enough of this shitty stuff from the MIW and now the opposition trying the same stance?
Beginning to be a little like India. If your family wash toilet, you will wash toilet when you grow up too.
