[GE2025] PSP Discussion thread

[Tabula Rasa]

My understanding from grass root is westside heartland areas like Jurong is PAP vote bank. West Coast GRC was vulnerable but the inclusion of Jurong West estates into the GRC tilted the balance.

according to lmw they also took out Telok Blangah, where they did ok in 2020. (They still didn’t win Telok Blangah back then)

 

[shock]

West coast jurong GRC too big for PSP. They should instead focused on CCK and tengah

 

[mynickname]

shed the party boomer image first.

speak to people abt psp, first thing that come to mind their mind is
Lao lang party.

This

True,my side psp candidate no photo,no pamphlet etc yet he can secure his deposit jin tio chio already.

I guess they really have limited budget.
And have to rely on their rally to promote their individual candidates.

PSP is all about TCB.

Without him it will be another Red Dot United / NSP.

Personally I think the only real opposition is WP & SDP.

If I'm not mistaken in the earlier GE,TCB want to merge all these smaller parties in one. A noble idea but sadly didn't materialised.

Also their party don't have much youngsters.

you left out wp
she can also be opposition voice.
wp has few promising young candidates

Probably too ambitious wanting to win a GRC first.None have achieved that so far,WP also start from SMC.CSJ nearly had his chance at sembawang west SMC even though he is new face there.

Not really leh. U see the SMCs around PSP's contested areas are all very high margin PAP wins.

The entirety of the west is like that, there is no pathway for PSP to secure even a SMC. Look left look right also gg.

Placing either TCB, LMW or Hazel would have failed also.

I think psp needs to consolidate further. Lean out, qc their new candidates very strongly, unlike in 2020. Continue to walk the ground, try to get a mass media specialist to join the party. It won’t be easy.

They have an ex reporter in the party who did not contest but should know how mass media works. She emceed the first rally. I'm not sure why their marketing went horribly.
In fact I felt she should have been the emcee all the way for psp..not sure why psp needs 3 different emcees across 3 rallies. Maybe someone in party can explain

 

[Joe Maya]

SDP is one man party. Even Paul also tio pwn. The rest are clowns like GG Wong and WUSG admin.

This is true but as a party they are more solid than the other minor parties.

oh who is it? Wp side I hear Nicole Seah was previously in charge of marketing and she was really really good. This time, not sure if it’s Jackson au in charge. Can feel got a different flavour. And it’s not just one person either, they got a team for it.

now they just need a Xiao hongshu specialist. From my exp, many marketing ppl jiak kantang, not exp with xhs.

its ok to have different emcees, but having Leon Perrera as one was a terrible decision.

they’re not mosquito party yet. But quite close Liao. Their best performance under csj would be when they had their a team in holland Bukit Timah. The team with Wijeysingha.

 

[Not.banned.yet]

Hazel poa had a plan to succeed. To go challenge smc. The Lao funkers talked her out of it.

soooo.. like that lo.

need to break into pap grassroot network but requires funds to do.

WP has its own WP community foundation which fuction much like PA.

 

[sciprof]

Part of the reason is taman jurong is a PAP stronghold. Easily 80% or more if tharman still the MP there

 

[tomicaguy]

They don't even bother to hold rallies in the GRCs

Vincent was done in by Vivian’s anti gay comment

They also have Ariffin ( & Tambyah ) which i think are solid members.

Hope they cherrypick and convince the "good candidates" from other losing parties to join SDP.
