Gan Siow Huang apologises over handshaking incident at Cantonese cultural festival

[fulaien]

Millitary general so easy overwhelmed?

Or overwhelmed by how lowly that uncle is...?

 

[BohemianSG]

Normal female can be forgiven but she ish a politician reject hand shake of a senior ish bky

If it was alexis dang, ppl will argue it differently. Will say she was protecting herself etc etc.

A rejection is when she was introduced to him and she ignore. This one is the guy tried to close her door and close it anyway after she told him not to. And then ask for big bear hug handshake. If give me i also will siam.

I seriously dun get why ppl are shooting her so hard for this.

 

[BohemianSG]

Now elections over, the true colors comes out. If she does this during campaign, she won’t have it so easy. This woman is known to be quite haolian

All women who rise in corporate or in her case the military are known to be haolian. I dunno a single one who is not egoistic or haolian.

 

[McGraw]

She's trying to take over Seet aimee is it?

 

[McGraw]

omg the amount of houseflies...

what so difficult? US presidents when leave plane on touchdown will shake hands with whoever at the plane door first. where got must shake host’s hand first.

Those at plane door got line up according to hierarchy, ie decided by the hosting country.
Cannot anyhow shake hands. Can end up offending the host.

 

[testart]

no disrespect
but maybe she was taken aback to be greeted by an uncle, casually dressed w/ a cap on, upon her arrival

kinda like "ehh ..

after much thinking, that could be the reason as to why she wasn't automatic but hmmm .. perhaps she should have just take the hand as basic courtesy .. even if that were a small kid

I just watch slow motion of video
Her hand was pull by the uncle

 

[toolbox03]

Freaking elitism

 

[toolbox03]

She angered many Cantonese people Liao . All in coffeeshop and hawker centres cursing her in Cantonese

She is likely cantonese also

Simi overwhelmed? That guy was standing right in front of her with his hand extended out! These white demigods are just compulsive liars!

Like how:
- Healthy no need wear mask! Wear mask is xiasuay!
- High rental doesn't cause high cost of living
- tray return will not lead to less cleaners in hawkers
- how charging plastic bags will save the environment, while constant construction projects, constant tearing down and rebuilding, doesn't seem to affect the environment?

from the beedio. Isn’t it she look she consider she reject? Or is it video not clear

from the beedio. Isn’t it she look she consider she reject? Or is it video not clear

imo
unker shouldn't be the one at the front
no disrespect
he can do it later on

the chairman or whoever invited her, should be the one to receive her coming

but as it had happened in that manner, perhaps she could have just make a quick acknowledgment & moved on

 

[NardinJohn]

Tbh if someone were to sketch his/her hands out first I would shake it first … 狗眼看人低 shake ppl hand still need to be selective and hesitate tiu she also got parents one

 

[doppypoppy]

From the video even after shaking the hands of the organizers, she didn't want to shake the red shirt man's hand. Can someone make a gif of that part?

 

[aphel14]

a public servant yet behave like high amighty. the mentality is clearly self-serving rather than serving the ppl.

uncle must have regretted voting for her

 

[Damienic]

I don't recall she even came out to canvas for votes

Cos she expected an easy victory. She faced a much tougher fight in 2020 against Dr Ang.

[kopiOkid]

"Speaking to The Straits Times on June 8, Ms Gan, who is the MP for Marymount SMC, said the incident happened on May 17."

“I was also a little overwhelmed by the big group that received me when I got out of my car. I sincerely apologise to the man in the red shirt for the delay in shaking hands with him.”

Such a poor excuse.
So few people in that group and she got overwhelmed?!

 

[loveboon]

What an excuse.. people already standing right infront of you leh
