WP defends Chen, questions PAP's motive

VOTERS have every right to scrutinise candidates ('Writer's query on Chen reasonable, says PAP' by Dr Ng Eng Hen; yesterday). However, Dr Ng must know that even before Mr Chen Show Mao had been formally introduced as a potential Workers' Party (WP) candidate, he was already interviewed extensively by the media, including Lianhe Zaobao, The Straits Times, MediaCorp TV and, most recently, The Business Times.

His responses to questions about his decision to return to Singapore and his motivations for joining the WP have been reported widely.

At WP's formal candidate introduction, there will again be opportunities for the media to pose questions to him.

The fact is that Show Mao's roots are here. His parents have lived here since 1972. His only sibling and her family are here. He attended our schools and voluntarily underwent national service as an infantry officer before he became a citizen.

Though he has been abroad due to the nature of his work, he has returned to Singapore typically four to five times a year, and made contributions to Singapore, such as serving on the advisory board of the Singapore Management University Law School.

He has also said that his wife and children will be joining him in Singapore permanently, and has committed to continuing political work here, regardless of the outcome of the general election.

By again raising the question of Show Mao being outside Singapore for a long time, is the People's Action Party signalling to Singaporeans that the return of a successful Singaporean is not welcome?

Or is his loyalty being questioned simply because he is with WP?

Sometimes when MIW ask stupid questions,the Opposition don't have to answer their stupid questions.Just let the voters decide.
If we want we also can ask Dr.Ng Eng HEN what are his motivations for joining ruling party politics ?
If he cannot give a good answer to us ,he better go back to check breasts !

Personal attacks on WP's Chen will 'backfire': Analysts

chenshowmao-19.jpg


THE People's Action Party is unlikely to go 'full guns blazing' or step up personal attack on Workers' Party candidate Chen Show Mao, said two political analysts on Tuesday.

Mr Chen, 50, a China-based lawyer whose academic credentials include topping the A-levels examination as well as degrees from Harvard and Stanford, has been billed as the WP's 'star catch' for the coming elections.

Political watcher Derek da Cunha cautioned that if the PAP went overboard with 'negative campaigning', many voters might recoil.

'It may backfire, particularly if the other side has not done anything wrong. If the electorate perceives they have not done anything wrong, then the PAP attacks come across as being gratuitous,' he told reporters on the sidelines of a seminar at the Singapore Management University.

Concurring, SMU assistant professor of law Eugene Tan, said: 'I doubt it. They (the PAP) have made a point, and I think they should move on, especially in view of the concerns that some of their candidates had become citizens recently.'

They were commenting on a letter to The Straits Times Forum Page on Tuesday, in which PAP's organising secretary Ng Eng Hen criticised the WP for not answering a letter-writer's question on why Mr Chen is choosing to enter politics now, after having spent some 40 years of his life overseas.

At the seminar, both analysts presented their pre-election analysis of the coming polls, which will be held on May 7.

there is fear, they feel threatened.
I feel good that citizens(banished or not) are contributing.
Politics are dirty; Look at Francis Seow, Tang Liang Hong, etc.
how i wished all the banished returned to re-make Sgp.
That will happen only if PAPs kick the bucket.

Did the main stream media published her reply? or were they just keeping quiet because it will make Ng Eng Hen seemed like a bully coward?
