Ng Shi Xuan is ok. Young and fresh and works in Civil Service before taking over his family business , so know who is the boss. and his face and youth can connect with youngsters

Gabriel Lam not so much. already got the boss aura and 1st introduction already want to correct Minister. lol.
OYK says they dont live here ... and donno the place well..
then he come on to do his introduction and say the Minister says we do not live in Sembawang but actually my family moved into tSembawang GRC in 1988 and then went on to show more proof of how well he know the area and how he have been serving in GRC.

So with that 1st pargraph of introduction.. he already offended all of PAP.
1st) Minister donno the candidate he is introducing to the GRC . Someone who is supposedly caring for the GRC and have the interest of the GRC at heart . but do not have the effort or incentive to know who he is introuducing as candidate to take care of the GRC.

2nd) show PAP is the ultimate decision maker of who to parachute to the GRCs and even the Minister has no say to the GRC he is taking care of.

3rd) Gabriel EQ.. walan.. "he could have just skipped the first sentence "Minister say we do not live in sembawang".. and just carry on with how well he know the GRC. That's enough. By saying that first sentence, he is pointing out Minister flaw in #1 as well as correcting him on a trivial matter(but matters to him).

They will be no NCMP this time round if WP or PSP win another GRC
WP or PSP winning another grc hope is less than 30% after the gerry. And they this time round dont have any special new candidates.

But tbh I also dont think csj will be the best performing loser to get into parliament. He chose a constitution thats a PAP stronghold to compete

So PSP have a warm reception at Tharman Jurong? But that area is PAP stronghold and not sure how much the departure of Tharman will affect the votes for PAP.

West coast was also a very strong PAP stronghold before Dr Tan came
Only those people living there who saw the interactions would know what's PSP chances. Note last time PAP high votes 1) Tharman, he is now president and cannot come to canvass votes 2) opponent is RDU

WP likely will all out MP instead of EC.

They need to focus on 1 GRC. PAP seems to try and tempt WP to go for many places, if WP too spread out they will win nothing.

If got some remnant ego, just go out to private sector to prove SG ppl wrong and make us regret our choice la.
This monkey wont survive in public sector. Remember got one scholar Lee Thong Tai, went into software biz thinking he created a wonder; general assessement was it was crap. And his brother was a convicted druggie

Between LT and CSJ, I take CSJ, CSJ has temperament control when kena pressurized, LT is an out of control all the time.
Same sentiment here, we literally can see the maturity of CSJ from the past till now while LT is still a reckless loudmouth even after all this years

He was PPS to someone, can't remember who.

I'm actually surprised he isn't considered for DPM by now, his breathe of knowledge and likeability is so far ahead of the other generals.
I leemember got one PS got pass over because his mistress was uncovered in one SEA Games. Old Gecko was still around and block it

NCM is a politician. He must be able to withstand critics, scrutinization, etc from the public, including Bertha Hanson. If not, don't join politics, simple as that.
However, he was a fighter pilot and in his esteemed mindset; he was god. That is one factor many dislike him
