I do not support Lina Chiam as NCMP

Chiam didnt like the system but nown wants it.

You missed the point of the NCMP system. It increases swing votes toward PAP since many in the middle are assured of NCMPs in Parliament even if opposition lost. If the system is scrapped in advance, opposition votes would have been higher. However, since the system is in place, why not take it according to the results? NCMP presence can help next election.

Some people cannot handle too much power, that's why their lot in life is always very small.

Chiam See Tong is one of these minions. You begin to understand why for 27 yrs, he only managed to run potong pasir, and not bigger things. When he tried to gun for a GRC, he not only failed, his entire ship sank. Essentially, he is no different from the pp he opposes, esp the old man. All this passing on of the baton to his wife, and not fielding a proper successor, and now the delusions of grandeur of seeing his wife as a NCMP: come on CST, let's not kid yrself that Mrs Chiam is ministerial material, and stop keeping every thing within yr own family.

It is still second class and a mockery of the pledge "to build a democratic society". Only if you have a NCMP like S Lim cna if work. But she here self also hated the position.

When GRC system was introduced, WP under JBJ announced that WP is against GRC but would contest as many as possible cause defeating it is the best way of breaking it down. It took more than 20 years and today we see one. Same for NCMP system, use it against them to break them down, just like Sylvia Lim did.

If they want their manifesto to be true, they should not support it.

When Lau Lee past the seat to son, at least LHL gotta 'liao'. What 'liao' Lena Chiam? At most, catch mosquito and supervise bangalahs at Town Council level.

How Desmond Lim was kicked out of SPP and the also the failed attempt to kick him out of SDA, all done without going through any CEC and in fact Lena Chiam issue intruction through her husband email.
Chiams case is worst than Lees, at least LHL got more merits than her. Speak of meritocracy and nepotism... CST is so selfish to give his seat to another more qualified outsider....

1 year out of 5 is enough for her to disgraceful herself and SPP.

she will bring disgrace to opposition
hello, she may be less combative than most male candidates, she may lack the spice factor of Nicole (the little nonya) Seah.... but, the votes indicates she's still the best loser from the recent GE. the ppl of p.pasir have spoken...

unlike the 50-60% of jokers in m.pde that chose Ms 'i duno what to say' as MP, over & above Nicole.

any opposition who's qualified enuf to walk into parliament house is worthy of their role. while their blunders shall not be as disgraceful as those that took the back door.
