Tony Tan until recently headed the powerful state press, has executive role in the premier sovereign investment fund of the state, having being an MP, Cadre Member of the PAP and having had held major cabinet portfolios announced his candidacy and stated that he is an independent.

Now within the days he has been endorsed by
1) Lee Hsien Loong - The PM
2) Goh Chok Tong - Former PM and next on the current protocol list
3) MG Chan - Cabinet Minister
4) SR Nathan - President

If this is the meaning of independent, than what the hell does partisan means.
 
Tony Tan is still independent because LKY hasn't told Singaporeans to vote for him.
 
Ex-DPM saboed by Ex-colleagues and Sub-ordinate.
 
It is so obvious, no need to act out the drama, the ultimate endorsement will come from the "Biggie" of them all soon. The ultimate STAMP OF APPROVAL, the rest just fall out!:rolleyes:
 
Who would you believe? A mama-san at Kabuki KTV claiming to be a virgin or Tony Tan claiming to be independent?

There is this Mr Singh from PM GRC who took the first leak about PAP preferred candidate which I believed Tony Tan was PAP choiced candidate. However, the Bayee later scolded Shit Times for taking his words out of context. From this matter alone, Tony Tan was long prepared as preferred candidate but PAP kept the secret so well hidden until recently.
 
Not Tony Tan but the fact that TCB was not the chosen one. TCB running was a shock. TKL was well known long time ago as he was asking for 100k petition.

Not entirely true. MGC endorsed all 3 candidates. Its quite refreshing to hear Mai Gee Chiu say that Tan Kin Lian is also a good presidential candidate. Did I hear him rightly?
 
That's the general statement. Read how he goes on to endorse TT when he did not say the same for the other 2.

In the context of PAP groupthink/terminology, independent means no longer holding any official Pap/govt or govt-related positions while partisan means "once a Pappie always a pappie!" A leopard cannot change its spots!

hi there


1. bro, good one!
2. hahaha.
3. yes, in sheep's language, that will definitely work!
 
It also means leopard separated from their herd and strayed independently doesn't make him any lesser leopard. So Tony Tan is an independent leopard.

1. bro, no offence!
2. sheep endorsing some white-haired sheep of the same flock.
3. what so independent!

Psst!, Leopards are solitary animals, they don't travel in herds or packs. You mean an old white bovine, who is now not part of the herd, is still a BOVINE!:D
