Someone started a thread about Tan Kin Lian kicking out Goh Meng Seng. On the contrary, it is Goh Meng Seng who is abandoning a sinking ship in Tan Kin Lian.
During the GE, Tan Kin Lian gave his wholehearted support to Goh Meng Seng and his party. He participated as a guest speaker in NSP rallies, and often cooed and waxed lyrical about Goh Meng Seng in his blog. As expected, Goh Meng Seng lost.
Goh knew that Tan's support is not unconditional, and has to be reciprocated later on. When Tan officially announces his bid, Goh Meng Seng was quick to declare that he will be helping Tan, knowing his obligation to the man who stand by him during GE. However, Tan KL isn't getting as much support as he wishes, and his eligibility to contest is also in question. Goh Meng Seng seeing Tan's presidency bid waning, needs a reason to back out from his promise. He has to cook up a story to disappear from Singapore, so as not to appear that he is playing out Tan. Hence the story about a "exec director" job interview in HongKong. However, this job interview will only take up a day, and he may not get the job (if truly there is a job interview). So how to "siam" Tan Kin Lian after that? Well, he cooked up another excuse that he needs to settle some "family matters" in Hainan for a long period period. How ingenious.
Tan Kin Lian is not naive, and he should be able to see through Goh Meng Seng's lies. Hope Tan will learn his lesson not to have anything to do with this charlatan Goh Meng Seng.
