[CONSOLIDATED] Singapore General Election 2025 Discussion Thread

[chocobelle]

On paper looks smart.. but practical skills might be non existent.. just look at Chen show mao and LTK. LTK was only a teacher but can lead, talk sense and charismatic. A lot of academics only know how to talk theory and not leaders

Pappies also a lot of academic smart pple but most becum Yes men & women

Piecesgal know him or not??

Where is Chen Show Mao now? Png Eng Huat?

When Chen Show Mao first appeared and joined the Aljunied team in 2011, he was arguably a star member of the Workers' Party team (similar to Jamus in 2020).

They kenna bullied in parliament till decided to quit

Psychologists always get attracted to join the Opposition here. Dunno why.

There was Chee Soon Juan and then there was this psychiatrist call Ang Yong Guan...

Cuz when you stare into the abyss
The abyss stares back at you

Just as we think WP has problems fielding 30 candidates this Election due to departure of Leon Perera and Nicole, now they are showing their hidden dragons this election and feel so confident as compared to NSP, SDA or PAR

I mean.. most of pap candidates are saf / civil service with iron rice bowl job and ingrained in them to toe the line.

They need more diversity hires to contect GRC anot?

 

[Eureka75]

Yeah seems like RDU and PPP is the first to finish their horse trading. PPP pulled out of Nee Soon and RDU today visited Nee Soon.
hope WP will be more ambitious. If they have enough good candidates, they should just contest JK. Hope to see NCM lose again

Pritam Singh did say WP short term goal is to contest 1/3 of the seats in order to get the numbers to deny PAP their supermajority, those kachang puteh parties should leave the eastern part of Singapore and contest central or north of Singapore which the major parties still don't have enough candidates or manpower to go there.

 

[Eureka75]

Only pap, wp and psp havent show hand yet, so all the current reports are all speculation. Even this news report is just an educated guess, not official wp announcement. But the other parties all show hand already, so we will know what those parties are planning to do (probably will reduce number of 3 cornered fights after their horse trading is finished)

Those candidates from PAP and WP are mostly guesstimates from journalist and not confirmed yet from the secretary generals

 

[Tormented Soul]

Spoil votes useless, it maintains PAP winning margin and sends a message to them that they are doing the right thing and please continue to increase taxes as singaporeans are kumgong.

U write 1m **** u pap vote papers also useless, doesn't mean anything and messages doesnt get send across. They only laugh at your dumbness for helping them win

EDMW hates elites but worships them once they wear blue.

EDMW hates elites but worships them once they wear blue.

Let's wait and see.

Interestingly, there ain't many ladies introduced as new faces. Hope to see more women, more diversity. Part of the reason Sengkang PAP lost the previous time cause they field all guys.

 

[We_Generation]

Also hope Harpreet Singh doesn't go to MP. Feels like MP is a suicide squad. Difficult to fight against TPL. Punggol, Tampines or EC would be a better option although if HSK stays at EC it might be more challenging.

WP should use the motto; “Let’s look at the other side” a quote from LKY

“I think there will come a time when eventually the public will say, look, let’s try the other side, either because the PAP has declined in quality or the opposition has put up a team which is equal to the PAP and they say, let’s try the other side.”

- Lee Kuan Yew
