Pe 2011

[rusty]

I am going for TCB. If Walter Woon, Ho Kwon Ping or Lee Tzu Yang decide to come forward, then it will be someone not associated with the MIW previously.

Is he the mother fucker who introduced the parental maintenance act?
Few months after the bill was passed, a paralsyed father on wheel chair witnessed his son killing the sister in front of the district court.
THe killing took place immediately after the judge sentenced him to pay up the monthly maintenance fee even though his salary was only $600 pm and have 2 handicapped children to look after.
That judge, whoever he was, will die a terribe death for not listening to the pride of that man and thus compelled him to kill his own sister.
Fuck Walter Woon!!

New guidelines on Presidential Election


In the coming Presidential Election, pictures of the candidates will be printed on the ballot paper next to their names to facilitate voters, said the Elections Department (ELD).

In 1993, the last time there was a contest for the office, candidates had self-chosen logos next to their names, but not pictures of themselves.

"This will allow voters to recognise the Presidential Election candidates more easily and facilitate their marking of voting choice on the ballot paper," said a statement from the ELD explaining the change.

The statement also made clear that the rules that governed Cooling Off day for the General Election apply to the Presidential contest as well: No election advertising is permitted on Cooling Off day.

A list of promotional items that can be distributed by candidates without prior permission from the Returning Officer was also released. They are:
- diaries or calendars on paper or paperboard
- key chains
- tissue packets
- t-shirts or other articles of apparel
- clothing accessories such as lapel pins, ties, scarves, caps or hats
- miniature flags and pennants
- soft toys -Straits Times

No decision yet to back any presidential candidate

THE NTUC has not decided whether to endorse any presidential candidate and may end up not backing any eventually, said the labour movement's president John De Payva.

He said it was a decision that the NTUC's central committee had to make by assessing the qualities and background of the candidates.

But Mr De Payva added that he felt personally that former deputy prime minister Tony Tan fits the bill of a suitable president for the labour movement and workers. Said Mr De Payva: 'We are mindful of who we think who should be president but we have not decided whether to endorse. We may, we may not.'

Dr Tan said he would welcome endorsement from any organisations but it was a decision for the NTUC to make.

The NTUC had endorsed presidential candidates in the past. It backed President S R Nathan when he first stood in 1999 and his predecessor Mr Ong Teng Cheong in 1993.

Both spoke to reporters after a closed door dialogue between Dr Tan and 500 union leaders Tuesday afternoon at the NTUC Centre. Dr Tan, 71, is one of five potential candidates vying to contest the upcoming presidential election which is set to see the fiercest fight since the Elected Presidency's inception in 1993. - The Straits Times

think I overestimated TKL, thought he could keep his deposit.

looking on the bright side, am glad my vote for TCB helped give the incumbent that proverbial slap across their faces :p:p:p
