I wonder how much Yaw Shin Leong can get paid for screwing LTK and the strongest oppo ward. Vote PAP, crash car, remain mum on affair talk property prices. Man, if undercover from PAP are so good in sabotage, maybe I should start changing sides. lol. Classic opportunist, YSL.

Damage control from WP
- Thread starter wikiphile
- Start date
This is terribly dramatic. Bill Clinton (as some have already mentioned) turned out to be a fine president even though he walked the halls of power with his pants around his knees. He too denied the allegations but finally admitted it. That did not affect his presidency.
Different people have different views as to where to draw the line, but I think people are confused that there is a difference between resigning only as Treasurer and from CEC. I can move from a treasurer to webmaster or CEC member. But being out of CEC is different. I do think that WP's CEC position is not an unimportant one within WP. Basically, anything outside WP's CEC is in the dark about WP, that's how WP is run.
The ultimate taste is from the residents of Hougang. Are they willing to forgive or the hate the PAP so much and let him continue his work or cry for re-election. LTK must feel so stupid right now. Interestingly, If it were Angela who was MP for Hougang and the accusations came about, I think it may not be so harsh. Meet the MP session might even become more crowded. But that is a scenario that never become a reality.
Yes, WP lost the plot. The extramarital affair was not a big issue to the discerning voter although it is now from the way they handled the crisis and the underlying issues of transparency. Fail.
Apparently, some people in WP's leadership are dead against YSL and want to bring him down, even at the expense of further dragging the party image down.
You're right, nobody, not even the MSM, has even considered YSL's CEC responsibilities in light of his fiasco. The only concerns was his function as Member of Parliament. Why is there a need for such an ill-timed and dramatic exit? If I were YSL I sure as hell wouldn't want to resign now and invite more speculation and accusation.
Your factious theory is probably correct. They are different groups who want different things. And sad to say, my only conclusion is that there is a bunch of fellas in there who want to see this affair turn out as ugly as possible.
Sad. This is fucking pathetic.
I don't think even LTK knows what to do. He put someone he thought was a good and obedient boy to run the most important SMC in Singapore, WP's precious jewel since 1991. Then it starts to hit him that that now he has put the biggest dynamite right in the hot seat, with a timer set and winding down fast.
"Panic" may not even describe what LTK might be feeling right now.
Are you kidding? An opposition MP has no access to Top Secret documents. How to compromise national interests and security. A bloody office staff in our two main intel entities has more access to privileged info than an MP, especially from the opposition.
Let me help you understand better. An officer handling a key registry has access as to who their agents etc are. Don't you think this division 2 officer who probably earn less than 4k has more ammunition than a 16k WP MP? He/she can sell info of this nature to interested parties which will most likely be a foreign intel agency.
If I happened to be compromised as a result of my itchy prick, that's not always a bad thing. Can always be a double agent for the govt and get paid and free fucks.
treasurer is bout the number 3 position for WP... Eric Tan was leader of the 2nd most important GRC, he was treasurer ....
to outsiders like yourself, treasurer is nothing... but if you have speak to some older members, they always say Yaw is going to be next Sec Gen...
He was Low LA, Hougang MP, and Party treasurer...
The only thing more sad than WP management of crisis is WP supporters mindless defense... they have sold their principles, that is what so pathetic, they really got what they wish for. A monkey in parliament... with last world voters like this, who need PAP to screw us..?
Are you sure nobody has even considered YSL's CEC responsibilities ???
I said before the 1st thing to do is to demote him from CEC and then called for BY-election!!
THBH, continue to pretend nothing has happen is what will further dragging the party image down.
I have also say before it is impossible for learned men like SHow Mao and JJ to think that keeping mum is the best solution...
it is not surprising that there will be disagreements in the CEC, if there is no disagreements, then I worry.
cause that will mean that WP is a one man show and the rest of the CEC are mindless drones who have no principles and using WP just as a vehicles to enter Parliament......
btw you guys need to start looking at Low's current LA..... I think he will be candidate next GE

The more I read the post of some ppl here, the more i see that a pattern has appeared. many here who claim to be true blue opposition supporters are in my observation are fair weather opposition supporters. am sorry but YSL has never admitted nor denied the extramarital affair.
Have all here forgotten about a current Cabinet Minister who was openly toying around with his colleague, made others in his law firm provide alibis to his former wife about his affair but ex got smart and eventually found out and divorced him. Remember all this before he even became Minister. Yet when he became a Cabinit Minister, many suffered from "memory loss" regarding his immoral ways. Now ponder and reflect, did this guy ever admit or deny the affair..
YSL and the rest are smart, they are learning from the other camp. Silence is GOLDEN...
Btw, from what I gather many in Hougang don't give two fucks about the RUMOUR and that is what it is and will remain till PROVEN otherwise.
:oIo:

Ball is now in the msm's court. They need to step forward and connect the dots.
Yaw Shin Leong really ruin his political career.
If he have come clean and admit it and apologies at the very beginning think it might save his career somehow but now damage have already done.

hahaha...what a kuku view.......welcum to the kuku club.
I feel bad for LTK, his problems in finding a worthy successor is no less daunting than CST. He bet this time on the wrong horse
It is premature to say this is the most stupid thing to do politically especially if you don't know what happened behind the scenes.
Maybe WP had asked YSL to "make public apology, beg for forgiveness and promise not to commit the mistakes again" but YSL refused to do it? Maybe YSL told WP that "I didn't have sexual relations with the woman" ala Bill Clinton, or simply denied any wrong-doing. Can WP sack him for that? Yes, but that would mean a bye-election. And I don't think LTK wants to risk losing Hougang.
I think this is LTK's style - not taking big risks. Taking measured risks; a small step at a time; bidding his time. He doesn't want to risk losing Hougang.
As I'd mentioned before, YSL is toast. Kaput! He won't be field again in next General Election. He's a nobody, a mediocre opposition MP - at a time when we really need all our opposition MPs to be top-notched like LTK, CSM and Sylvia - because we have so few opposition MPs. What's this clown doing here!?#
In the next GE, this will be a non-issue because YSL won't be in the line-up anymore. LTK will probably ask him to stay away from WP during the GE. PAP can try to bring this up but it won't matter anymore because 1) a long time has passed; it's old news 2) YSL is no more to be seen.
We are at a critical juncture in Singapore politics. This incident is very unfortunate. It's like LTK and Sylvia making a step forward and YSL making two steps backwards for the opposition. Another James Gomez.
