..COOL reaction from MBT.....He is ready for the challenge...Please assemble your people....High Calibre Opposition & High Qaulity Candidates needed...otherwise, it is a tough call....
Funny, and perhaps uniquely Singapore again. People in other countries want to boot out their ministers when property prices fall.
85% of Singapore households already own HDB flats of various sizes. All prices have gone up (or skyrocketed). Who's complaining? Yes, those children of the current flat owners who turned adult and looking for their own flats. If HDB (new and resale) prices fall, they'll also get hit in their parents' networth and bequest. The real problem isn't rising flat prices. The real problem is income level failing to catch up.
Logically, opposition and dissenters should take aim at labour policies insteading of housing policies. But hey, this is Singapore.

Has anyone ever tot to do a Flash Mob on this shorty and engage him in a on-the-spot debate on policies, since he is so ya-ya confident?
Catch him unawares in a public engagement and out talk him would be absolutely sweet, esp since he can't wiggle his way out without looking like an idiot in front of his residents... and losing votes in the process..
it'll expose his lack of knowledge of whats going on and his ignorance of the common man problems... e.g. sky high housing prices etc...
