I am so exasperated with him. He had a good run in GE2011. He did much more than anyone expected. For christ sake, he even managed to get old man to issue a threat about HDB losing its value if MBT is not elected. All he needed to do was build on it.
We can't afford to lose good people like that.
Now suddenly he does even know simple politics. Even the gossips rags can't be bothered about Yaw and his runaway libido. We all know that LTK dropped the ball on Yaw. What he wants LTK to do? - commit suicide in front of GMS . He wants Sylvia to resign and become a nun. Seriously I have no clue how WP and LTK can atone for their sins in order to please him.
The other thing I cannot figure out is his claims about monopoly, dominating opposition politics. He has to learn from VW. Every opportunity he addresses the Govt and its policies. He highlights the issues, he challenges their assumptions and demands action.
No only WP, he also taking Nicole to task. With a guy like that PAP need not even have grassroots leaders.
This guy probably has no idea that Chee is going to come out of bankruptcy and stand for elections in 2016. Chee if he does not realise has changed tact. There is a reason why it is very quiet in the western front.
We know an agenda makes a priority give way and nothing to be exasperated about if you know.
I can give a real life example happening within my circle. The chairman of a condo was very demanding on his managing agent, making the male manager who "went by the book" do all kinds of silly things, calling him everyday to pick on small things. On top of that, the manager was clearing a lot of backlog left by a non-performing female ex-manager who was sacked by the managing agent company. The chairman never paid heed to the fact that the manager was already very busy trying to salvage the mess for the chairman's and his council's sake, nor did he bother much about the condo during the female manager's tenure that led to the present situation. The admin staff who was there all the while testified that the chairman never used to call office everyday to demand for something to be done.
It later dawned on the male manager and his managing company that the female ex-manager had flirted with the chairman and was bitter against her ex-company for being sacked, and both of them were still in touch via SMSes. The male manager had also offended the chairman by going by the book in during one incident by refusing to process a dubious claim the chairman tried to make from the MCST fund. The managing agent later terminated the contract after two more managers resigned from frustration.
What would make a boss come down more hard on a hardworking manager than a lazy manager? When it should be the other way around. One word - the agenda. You expect rationality to come in when the agenda is to tear down people would be too much to ask, I'm afraid.
