Problem is, MIW will catch on to every single word you say and twist is around to use against you. Likely even to sue. Statements made without proper thought could bring down the whole party. We dun have freedom in Singapore. How many times have we seen this. If wp hasn't learn anything from the past, we shouldn't even vote for them. To me this proves they see the bigger picture.

NEA n the state media are making a mountain out of a molehill. How can minor issue like cleaning a hawker centre get more media coverage than town councils using sinking funds to invest in shares n bonds n losing millions of $? which one you think is more important n deserve more media coverage?

Well, what to do. They're all out to fix any opposition parties.

NEA = SPH = GOVT = PAP = AIM. All machiam 1 big family one... Until now, many ppl still read 149th media, thinking they're the correct news cos they're mainstream mah...


Till now, the AIM saga still no conclusion, like sweep under the carpet liao...

Does it means both parties still not good enough. All keep silent means gold?? If really innocent why keep silent. Really puzzle move.

They didn't keep silent. They posted on their website because mainstream media will only take things out of context. It was in a earlier post.

The one keeping silent is pap over aim. So long no news.

is posting on the website the best way?
Have they considered other alternatives, such as setting up an area near the market to reach out and be nearer to the hawkers, to explain the whole issues, to take responsibility of not checking and confirming the understanding between the hawkers and NEA?

Seriously.. the whole issue has blown out of proportions - and it's not lookin gd on WP

I'm starting to wonder if they might have taken a bigger chunk den they can chew.

Remember.. Aljunied was a close win, not a complete win or major win. There's def people who are out to nitpick, and as underdogs, need to work harder to overcome and win ppl over

How to probe, when this time they got the SPH and NEA to stir trouble for WP? How to have a fair fight?


Anyway, if NEA can reveal & publish the letter that they claim they got, then it will put the damage on WP surely.

Do u see that by responding thru the 154th mouth piece... will there will real presentational of clear data or will it get marshed up, gobbled and spit out as spittoon.....

Why should the WP play into their hand... The PAP is to do a hit and run.... is liken to throw up ????? just enough to cast doubts then consider goal hit, target strike down..... this type of underhand political means we see alot liao .... politicising municipal issue with they themselves failing at a even more spectacular fashion.....

They can continue to use the state media to broadcast and push their agenda and propagander their evils..... my neighbours /// was li lua lah li kua lah.... town council su looi to simi lehman bro... simi LJ AIM.... this one cleaning niah... kong ka tong liao liao..... KNN selective championing.... sibeh jian...
