Do we need a government to group think and only know how to monitor?
They are bullies.
Bullying LMW in parliament :
TCJ populist
TSL suan in cantonese
Indranee flipping files
Degrading with words like illiterate and lousy school

Now OYK pointing one finger at CSJ for abandoning Bukit Batok had pointed 4 fingers to his own party for abandoning:
Sg want them to explain Y the following members abandoned :
TSL abandons Marine Parade,
Gan Bu Yong abandons Chua Chua Kang, Indranee abandons tanjong Pagar
Edwin Tong abandons Joo Chiat

Pls help to stop these bullies and V all of our credible candidates into parliament
Thanks

a recap of the contribution of a great man who serve his country...

1. Free HDB parking on Sunday and public holiday to encourage family bonding...

2. Use of CPF for education for parents to 'invest' in their children allowing greater social mobility...instead of burdening young generation with high student loans...

3. Setting up organization that help credit card defaulters instead of bankrupting them...







Dr Tan Cheng Bock

A recap of Dr Tan Cheng Bock contributions. Let's welcome him back to Parliament for the last time!

Talking about monitoring, sg must V OUT the demon monitor 🦎
He has caused sg more hardships for messing HDB resale prices with his so many cooling measures that led to not only big resale flats selling in million $ but also the 4 room HDB at central locations now selling also in million $ cos he introduced the Prime Plus standard bto at sky high prices with 10 years MOP and claw back of grants at selling prices.

A newly mop 4 room resale flat is now going for about $1.4 million for a 990 sq ft. It is like the prices of 99 years condo
3 room HDB resale is closing $1 million soon going at this rate. It needs to be stopped and start with removing this demon monitor 🦎 to V him OUT

Under him, a 2 room bto is more than $400k and his 4 room bto is closed to $800k which match with resale older





sg affordability of a roof is diminished with such high bto and resale HDB prices. Roof is essential and it should ensure our affordability to guarantee us the roof over our head.
Else u will need to rent which is also very expensive and won’t have saving to buy your own roofs..

See the mortgage payment for a $800k HDB and the huge down payment needed



see the sky high rental which will eat into your savings…

affordability in sg is built on loans and debts

if one day suddenly nobody going to provide loans, affordability will crash in sg

Happy 85th Birthday Dr Tan!

PSP chairman Tan Cheng Bock turned 85 today, and he celebrated his birthday with a hearty breakfast and two cakes at Teban Gardens Food Centre this morning.

He was joined by his West Coast-Jurong West GRC team and Bukit Panjang SMC candidate Paul Tambyah from the SDP.

His breakfast consists of two red eggs, which symbolise birth and new beginnings in Chinese tradition. His companions sang the birthday song, followed by chants of “Heng Ong Huat! PSP into the Parliament!”

“SDP also!” another person chimed in.


The food centre is part of the Ayer Rajah ward, where Dr Tan had been a PAP MP for 26 years. It is now part of West Coast-Jurong West GRC.



good to see Dr Paul also there

I have been discussing with a few friends about him. I told them he is a changed man, if no heart, why would someone like that continue for 30 odd years, bankrupted, jailed, lost at polls and come back fighting? While I think a number of us have improved their perception of him, there remains a number who is still rooted in the past. They cited his shouting at GCT in 2001, his advocacy of civil disobedience in 2005-2008 and continue to question his character. People do make mistakes and I believed he has changed for the better. I told them why continue flogging a dead horse, does people who makes mistakes in the past need to be condemned and carried the sins they once make for rest of their lives??
