I dun laugh at him cos it is the life path that he chose.
We do crazy stuff in life from time to time.
Just that they do bigger crazy stuff.
I think it will be better to organise lucky draw for Iphone or Labubu dolls for patrons that spent more than $50 in his restuarant or maybe like first 20 senior patrons get to eat one of his speciality dish for free to get publicity for his restuarant, rather than telling his friends and followers his intentions to contest elections and donate his deposit and get laughed at. Anyway he will have much difficulty finding 4 other candidates who is willing to donate $14K to ELD and get nothing in return.

Got a feeling that the restaurant that he "owned" is his family business.
He displayed some hesitation about revealing his business during the walid interview even though he shared that he is brought up in some humble background.

Is through the support of the residents and persistence of WP they can submit their proposal for town improvements to CIPC without the approval of PAP grassroot leaders
When u don’t play fair, u lose credibility.
Can sg still trust them to play fair to sg ?

I think no candidates will want to fork out the 14k deposit and join him. He will probably have to sponsor the 14k deposit for the 4 candidates if he wants them to join.

Yes that's the ultimate goal.

In systems, you have backups /fail over systems.

Businesses have business continuity plans when their operations get disrupted.

Why don't we have something similar for our govt and politics?
Not all company. A lot is father hand down to son even if he is a jlb kia end up the company collapse.

We also hear of mosquito parties like Socialist Front and Democratic Progressive Party who said they want to contest Tanjong Pagar and Bishan Toa Payoh in the past but in the end MIA on nomination day, so I believe he is the same, as he definitely cannot get enough kumgong candidates who are willing to pay 14K and also enough assessors.
