[tanbrave]

Thanks for making me laugh.

Let's see,who laugh last.

 

[xdivider]

He is a good man

to miw he is a persistent pest, as exemplified by their supporter here. point is a laoya school person keep asking qns that any laoya school person can answer (how many singapore citizens blah blah) but muz keep shrouded in terms like resident, reclassified pmet (which ones again)........

also this is not 1980s, whether or not tariff is an existential threat people can see for them selves. even if chicken little keep screaming people gets deaf after he does it x times. that time when public told them covid was a threat but did anyone listen? no, healthy no need mask, and do not do unto others what others do unto u or something crappy. but this one even b4 90 days geniuses started telling people end of earth is coming.......

and talking about substandard politicians, a certain cry wolf politician insinuated a particular town council gave public monies to their frens, and instituted a which hunt which cost sinkies MILLIONS to audit and do trials and resulted in big fat zero. they probably still pretend it never happened, as can be seem by some morons here keep asking about 'missing money'.......

So far I at least haven’t seen a single WP candidate talking nonsense about their parents dying

Meanwhile at least 1 MIW already exposed for inconsistencies in his sob story

The self proclaimed baby face auntie makes me laugh until I leak my pee

As I see it, the RK COP is just a platform to fix PS when ET, TCJ etc chose to believe thrice-lier (!!!) RK's 'take to grave' allegation and accuse PS of lying.

For if PS had indeed told RK to take (lie) to grave, why didn't RK bring it up during WP's DP meeting with her, especially when PS told her 'can't lie right' during the DP meeting? Unless RK suffered amnesia and had totally forgotten about the 'take to grave' WP leaders allegedly told her, it shows that WP leaders had never told her to 'take to grave' at all.

ET was top lawyer, yet he had overlooked such glaring inconsistency. Why? To me, the reason is obvious. Remember his then boss LHL had talked about needing to 'fix the opposition'?

This is one of the many examples of PAP being a bully.

Always resorting to such demeanor as usual.

Jimmy Tan's not-so-secret talent: Singing

Aside from his day job as the owner of Immanuel Engineering, Mr Jimmy Tan also boasts a not-so-secret talent: Singing.

In 2023, he won the first season of Mediacorp's Golden Age Talentime, emerging victorious with his rendition of popular Chinese oldie The Past Can Only Be Remembered.

Responding to a question from the media, Mr Tan says he has been asked to perform at WP celebration events – and will sing with residents if elected.

Dunno if Victor Lye will win prize at 黄金年华 with his singing and dancing skills or not

Religion and politics don't mix sometimes.

I do fear a substandard parliament that entertains with rape stories. We are living in troubled times, make no mistake about it. You oppies want to downplay Trump's erratic behaviour, flip flops, and think it's okay to tikam tikam with your votes. I wouldn't mine and I fear.

Did you read current affair news at all? WP was just as concerned as well leh.

..In its statement, the WP said the latest act has "undeniably upended the global trade compact" that was first established at the end of World War II.

As a small, open economy dependent on international links, Singapore's economy will be affected, especially outward facing sectors such as trade, finance and tourism.

WP believes a "rational and pragmatic approach is required" at both the international and domestic level.

"Singapore must reserve its right to turn to relevant dispute settlement mechanisms, such as those outlined in the US-Singapore Free Trade Agreement or the World Trade Organization.

"We should also tap on our existing ties with other branches of the US government and business associations, such as the Congressional Singapore Caucus and the American Chamber of Commerce, to argue our case," the party said.

WP got a potential RK on their side who is more concerned over conflicts half a world away than SG’s own interest
