while i admire the effort you have put in to document and market your ideas i find some of them too populist (and without balance) for my taste. still i wish you all the best if you decide to run, but i think the chances are pretty dismal as not really addressing on the ground issues like cost of living, GST, declining birth rate and other touchy stuff like DEI

I in fact only address cost of living.

GST - the reasons for this increase is because of our healthcare spending. It was S$9bn in the past, education was $12bn. Now Healthcare has flipped it to become 2nd highest spending. People are living longer and the moves by OYK to pay for CTGTP and adjustments to riders are very good. Our healthcare needs suffer from infrastructure and hiring issues. OYK and GKY has generally done a very good job.

DEI - let worker party deal with this. Their cadres many more pro DEI. Good to have parliament stacked with diversity.

Declining birth rate - This is a COL issue. We address the HDB floor pricing and address CPF retirement - the babies will come. We must also be very careful that the humanoids are coming. We are having PMET retrenchments at highest since 1988. Blue collar jobs are next.

In a world where incomes are not guaranteed safe from AI disruption, we must prudently use the PR system to get the highest quality citizens if we cannot give births ourselves. I wrote about a replacement framework to get more EP visas only if you pay Singaporeans more.

At the end of the day, your cost to live starts from your need of a house. That is the core. We cannot be using each generation to pay for the previous via property. All the additional CPF compounding inside the HDB and it is dangerous. We must undo the Mah Bow Tan and Goh Chok Tong policy.

Asking to replace the retirement asset is in fact not populist. Everybody want to buy low sell high, no political party want to touch this vote losing issue. So I ran as independent. Because everybody is running populist spending policies.

[Joseph12]

Mr Xie walk the ground a lot for the last few years. Can easily spot him tabao lunch and talking to the residents at Blk 490+ area during lunch time.

Ah Boey walked the ground alot at Teban Bangkit ward. So can he be MP?
If Ah Boey don't want to be MP, can his dog who also walked the same ground be MP?

Amy Khor not running in GE2025: Gan Kim Yong​

The People’s Action Party (PAP) unveiled its candidates for Chua Chu Kang GRC and Bukit Gombak SMC on Apr. 14, 2025.

For Chua Chu Kang GRC, PAP will field Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong, Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim, Choo Pei Ling and ex-civil servant Jeffrey Siow, a new face.

On a semi-related note, Hong Kah North was dissolved and incorporated into neighbouring Jurong East-Bukit Batok GRC and Chua Chu Kang GRC, according to the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee report.

This prompted a question after the press conference to DPM Gan about the future of Amy Khor, the MP for Hong Kah North, and where she would be heading.

Gan replied that Khor was stepping down due to personal reasons, and would not contest GE2025.

He also expressed his thanks to Khor for her efforts in Hong Kah North over the years.

Khor has been in Hong Kah North for 24 years

wah, 24years, how come she can sit for so long? no change of new blood one meh

 

[Bumblebee Man]

I am disappointed no one posted that picture of her cooking beehoon without fire

Wah you forgot to change account before posting this? But I am equally disappointed no picture has been shared yet in this memorial for her.

 

[BigCannon Fairy]

Sinkies can trust Pap to make the right decision. They know if she run, Sinkies will vote her so they took her out

 

[charleslee1989]

maybe use wrong account?

Well, if the face matches, then there is no excuse liao...

 

[Emperor_Hippo]

Oh no
Where is Ivan lim

秋后算账算还没算完。

 

[jeremytansg]

Wow from edmw??! Are you representing the bbfa here?

If you noticed one of my policies, each Baby should get S$10k in bitcoin, allocated in a fund called

Baby Bitcoin Funds Account.

The PAP is throwing an approximate 16k at new babies this year. I am only asking for S$10k that gets locked until they are 21. Let them beat inequality by having compound interest. Poor people stay poor because their parents have nothing for their kids to compound.

Nobody want to contest Bukit Gombak cos Ms Low is helming

She very good meh?

 

[obsceneK2]

Disagree..

This yr PAP can potentially lose 1-2 GRC/SMC more..
East Coast + West Coast vulnerable , reflecting gradual erosion of support for PAP

No more west coast grc. Dissolved liao

 

[PhantomOpera]

Who is he? Never see him speak up in Parliament for the people before?

 

[tmkedmw]

Not bad still got benefits after step down

Persons who have reached the age of 50 years and retired as MPs and who have served in this capacity for not less than nine years may be granted a pension for the rest of their lives. The annual amount payable is 1⁄30 of the person's highest annual salary for every completed year of service and 1⁄360 for every uncompleted year, up to a ceiling of two-thirds of the Member's annual salary.

Amy is not just an MP.
She is also a political appointment holder.
Pension schemes are different.

 

[charleslee1989]

No more west coast grc. Dissolved liao

Become West Coast-Jurong West GRC liao
