Why Lawrence bring up 1996?

[XKiRaX]

Was he hoping for a strong reaction from CSJ.. and the debate will lose its focus and opposition will look bad?

well.. CSJ is a changed man..

His face show that he has 饱经沧桑

CSJ's face at that moment was a face of a disappointed man who has sacrificed and endured so much. Sacrificed and endured so much to see someone who is supposed to be part of the new generation of leaders once again resort to old smear tactics.

CSJ have written his thoughts on this encounter in FB.
"
I was quite surprised at Mr Lawrence Wong's outburst tonight during the CNA forum. It was a bolt out of the blue when he cited a matter that happened 20 years ago to continue the PAP's tactic of character-assassination.
His comment was not in keeping with the spirit and tone of the forum which, up until then, was a robust but civil debate on the issues of the day and the future of our country.
This happened despite the PAP's promises not to indulge in the destructive politics of old. When the programme was over, Mr Wong came up to me and we shook hands. Then he smiled and said, “You came prepared.”
I have repeatedly urged the PAP to refrain from such kind of politics, including Mr Chan Chun Sing who called me a political failure earlier this year, and focus on the issues that Singaporeans care about.
Apparently, however, our younger ministers are bent on continuing such a tactic – a tactic that does not sit well the voters. It is my sincere hope that for the sake of Singapore, the PAP will stop what it is trying to do and get back to having a constructive GE on how we can better the lives of our fellow citizens.

It's quite clear why she reacted this manner... lol
For LW ..... i think he is out for character assassination which is low handed.

But anyway joke is on him, because CSJ handled it pretty well. I think this would help convince some who are having trouble believing that CSJ is a changed man.

Instead of spending his alloted time to tell voters what concrete plans his party has for our next 5 years, he chose to spend it on character assassination of his opponent.

What does it tell you about their plans for your future?

Pap has no other concrete plan then to import more people to boost GDP. That's why talk about oppo poor character, cmi, cannot trust, etc.

 

[jack72]

I find this Lawrence very cunning and ambitious

 

[tissuepaper]

You noticed he emphasized the phrase "public record".

Because he wants it to be a buzzword in tomorrows print...

****ing pre-meditated ********...

It's a deliberate attempt on disassociation. I don't believe he meant every word he said.

Already did. Its called the population white paper. I dunno to be honest... but I can say for certain right now things are not good and not getting better if he choose to waste his remaining political capital on stupid nonsense in order to score brownie points that's costing him broader support. This will easily backfire on him.

 

[webhoster]

denise keep talking about the past and what they ARE ALREADY DOING over and over again. her eyes and body language damm gan chiong. LW appears cool with good composure but reply nonsense and basically beat around the bush and then no answers to the questions or gave answers which we already know and is looking for a change.

the personal attack was real, real dirty. can see is purposely one...slowly slowly bring the topic to character and shoot CSJ.

 

[tomasulu]

Yeah bad bad move by lw. More than anything csj needed sympathy points and lw handed to him in spades.
