[CONSOLIDATED] Singapore General Election 2025 Discussion Thread

[Rosanjinz]

ts need to research more before starting thread

I have seen wp do a lot of instagram posts, tiktok, even youtube videos

PSP at least got do youtube interviews quite extensively or try to.

The other parties lei?

 

[s3nt1n3l]

The normal voter will not even have time, or be interested to even read

At most maybe view their press conferences or online interviews

normal voter who bochup about politics will just vote for PAP by default anyway.

Those who are interested will actually go and read opp manifesto if they have one

must go and see if have or not lor

 

[PAP4ever]

all the PAP IBs out in force......

 

[tomsss]

pap have got the means to do a lot more things but they are not doing some of them

opposition is there to remind them to do so

 

[spinning_quirK]

You know they can just do their own youtube videos now in the age of social media right?

never see the oppo doing Tiktok, Youtube videos.

They don't have full-fledged film and style agency (agencies?) like the PAP does have. If their filming technique no good, miking no good, dress style no good, broken Eng or Chi, never use Bahasa or Tamil, hairstyle like morning wakeup, face full of pockmarks, wearing collared tshirts with funny colour scheme, confirm will have some IB agents to downvote and gaslight. In the end still no discussion on Oppo policies because the signal is being drowned out by the paid noise.

TS, you are kidding, right ?
What did LMW bring about in their usual meeting ?
So much debate, fun and anger.
Dun forget about Rambo tan's lecture and some one slamming her file.
And how they need to improve their mic system.

If that is no improvement, I dunno what is.

Mr Philemon added that he wanted to be “honest with the residents” and acknowledged that the party is unfamiliar with Holland-Bukit Timah GRC.

Going forward, the party plans to speak with residents and SDP to understand the municipal issues in the area, he added.

Mr Fazli said he wants to speak for retirees living in private estates who have little or no income.

He said: “You don’t have to live in a rental flat to feel poor. There are families in private estates with little income and no support. It is time we stop judging need by post code.”

Give this opposition party ZERO votes unless you are living in a landed.

It's really ridiculous to talk about subsidizing rich people with "little or not income" who owns a LANDED worth millions.. (Now , landed no $3mil no talk)

No money ,just downgrade to HDB.

55 years old and above can immediately sell private landed and buy a HDB Resale!

I want to also cannot!

So this opposition party got big problem.... suggesting stupid ideas

 

[Lemonpeach]

Ruling and opposition parties around the world compete for the same pool of candidates:

Knowledgeable
Competent
Connected
Charismatic
Willing

If one don't choose PAP, then it is the opposition. Oppo can't bring much to the table because they attracted a smaller pool.

Oppo will have a better chance when they unite into a mega party like in the US.

When you have less talented, Oppo cannot bring much to the table.

It's obvious.

 

[PAP4ever]

Competition begets improvement. Nuff said.

Continue let the JLB collect million dollar paycheque while not having the country/citizens at heart?

no thank u

 

[mata_hippo]

thanks to ts, im voting pap now! oppo all cmi no need vote for them!

 

[Audio8]

Must wait 15 months.

If 55 and older, can simply buy 4 room and smaller.

He is rich enough to buy a big size condo

 

[spinning_quirK]

Precisely. How you expect them to explain it to you then? They don't have that exposure like pap does, even their interviews are very limited. Usually they will briefly point out the things they can do, but if you want to know more, you have to read their papers.

These papers are called manifestos right? Come, I help everybody. Start reading, everybody.

Private property can mean condo or apartment leh.

If is sell house still want to live in condo and pay exorbitant maintenance fees and property tax?

 

[Ethan_]

Just curious, did incumbent always praise the opposition or often criticise the wrong?

 

[s-ghost]

it's not just beautiul pictures with motherhood statements

Think short of selling, can do rental bah. Many foreigners, especially ang-mor like to rent landed one.

 

[buzzlightyear852]
