Trying to divert the fact that it is the landlords that are jacking prices up with rental costs.

LT reminds me of our late great leader.
Certainly no nonsense and won’t spare those wrong doings…
Would our late great leader let jiak mango and mango get away for 3 long years ?

Pls V LT in… he will do the job most won’t dare to thread like our old guard


PAR only him and KKJ right, never heard about the other uncles in PAR making a statement or talking, even in SMCs they can only get the anti-PAP votes

Can PAP reduce GST, rentals, price of water, gas and electricity first instead of raising taxes and fees and give back vouchers? Or set more controls in the number of foreigners that can come to Singapore with S Pass or Employment Pass so that got less competitors for PMET jobs?

The PAP holds 79 seats in Parliament. When factoring in MP allowances and mayoral salaries, the total annual cost amounts to S$18,507,500.
Despite this significant expenditure, they have yet to effectively address the cost of living challenges or resolve international issues like the US tariffs through bilateral negotiations.

I think those back benchers who are not promoted to parliament secretaries at least after 3rd or 4th election cycles will be forced to step down to make way for new candidates

dunno if mr lim will still have dignity or not...

oppose for the sake of having opposition. but in the end will still kowtow to great and might ones

Sg can't afford to keep having gst and fate increases for everything even though infrastructure in sg is struggling to support the inflated pop as we speak.

Everyone forget Chen show Mao.

Over promise. Under deliver.

but then many PAP Mp also like that.
Precisely my thoughts, majority of PAP MPs usually quiet in parliament or simpy just parrots their own party's narratives one.

So far, I can only remember TCB outright voting against some of the policies like NMP. Closest to him I can think of is Inderjit Singh, but he only became more vocal after leaving PAP.

Not like CSM is worse off than most of them.
