He appears to have difficulties walking steadily. Hope his health improves.
Stroke at his age, the best to hope for is that it does not deteriorate.

I've met and spoken with Desmond Lim. Honestly....he did not come across as a capable or viable opposition voice. CST has done his bit, playing the game according to the boundaries set up by the pap. I disliked how he was jeered and laughed at by the pappies in parliament. To me, he's too nice a guy to push the boundaries.
Chiam will never lose in PP during his lifetime. Sitoh knew that since 2001. But Lina or Desmond will be dead meat against him. So Chiam is begging for an excuse to remain in PP.
You're so confident? I don't think CST himself is. He knows well his last two victories were on 51% and 55% margins. He doesn't need any excuse to continue contesting in PP. He needs an excuse to get out of PP.
Lina, Desmond? You really think they"ll win against Sitoh? Dream on.
When did I say that? I said all would lose.
Actually it is time for him to retire.
His kind of politics isnt making sinkieland a better place. At first he was found wanting in SDP, forced to resign as the CEC could not get along with his high-handleness.
Now the SDA committee disapproved of his sacking of sec-gen Desmond Lim. Another blow to his prestige. His dictatorial ways again is the problem.
Unlike the great JBJ, this man hasnt the courage to stand in a GRC until he is on one leg. Spore can do away with such a boh lumpar man. No different from the PAP MPs!

To quote his former comrade "Don't talk cock". Chiam is a legend in PP and it will be difficult to unseat him.
Lina and Desmond, on the other hand, are dead meat.
PAP with its succession plan, is way ahead of Chiam.
Agree with you completely. CST is 100% honest and thrifty. Always exemplary in his conduct. He was jeered and laughed at because compared to the MIW, CST is always at a disadvantage. He doesn't have the whole bureaucracy to do background research for him. He speaks from his heart. If you put any of the MIW in his position, they will also fumble and stumble. Those who laughed and jeered at him are worse than snakes and whores.

His health is deteriorating, his support is waning. He has been disadvantaged from the day he won PP. Pappy dogs made his work very difficult. He has worked hard all these years, and I have the utmost admiration and respect for him. Its time he takes a well earned rest.
Like I said, Desmond Lim is just not up to the task. They will eat him up and crap him out.
BTW, whatever happened to Mr "Don't talk cock"?
CST is a friend of one of my relatives. I like him, he's a humble and simple man. Pains me each time pappy dogs tore into him. Yeah, those who tried to humiliate him are bastards. And we need more bastards in the opposition camp to even things up.
No sane opposition, with the (im)balance of situation as it has been for past half century, enters politics for money. But then, there're always some insane or bad at maths. Only PAP members enter politics for money. In fact, it's made clear to them, enter politics for money. Take the money, it's legalised. Otherwise, it's every hard to attract people to join PAP and keep the machinery overwhelmingly gigantic and going.
Well, Mr Ramseth, I am 100% certain some opposition chaps do it for the money. The pertinent question is, from who? Hahaha.
Opera troupes?
What's the motivation for opera troupes to pay the opposition? They don't have much $ anyway. I think it should be the other way around. The opera troupes needs $.
I mean opera troupes on the receiving end of the $.
