I definitely WOULD NOT say this is "sincere, balanced". NOT THIS TIME!

Totally second what Goh Meng Seng has said here. E-Jay

Dear lockeliberal, When I was talking about the confused swamp LTK had moored himself on, I did not mean you to follow in with him. If you read my postings on Viswa, I gave a concise breakdown of all the main points he covered, and I acknowledged that his motion was as broad-ranging as it was...

Low Thia Khiang is worse than a lost ship without a light house. He is a rudderless sampan that has been moored on the decaying swamp of confused priorities. If he wants to join the PAP in criticizing Viswa's message because he himself also disagrees with it, FINE! But to crudely dismiss the...

Excessive politicking??!!? Mr Viswa made a speech explaining his ideals, including his ideals of free and fair elections. And LTK calls that politiciking? Even PAP MPs bothered to debate the issue, even if their debate was one-sided, scathing. LTK did not even bother. He dismissed the issue...

Well, there is nothing wrong with being an armchair critic either. Contributing ideas/thoughts is just as important. E-Jay

So in other words, two people can say the same thing but only one is right. Well, I don't agree with your assessment of me, but I guess that's your view. E-Jay

SDP has also stated clearly on numerous occasions that they are committed to contesting elections. E-Jay

Hi Porfirio R., On hindsight it was not a well-considered decision, given that my own values and beliefs are more aligned with SDP's than RP's. At that time however, I joined because I was helping Teck Siong behind the scenes for some time and we both thought it would be better for me to...

Lockeliberal, I do not have anything to do with Wayang Party Club's website. The maximum involvement I have ever had with them was contributing an occasional article to the Singapore Enquirer. Appreciate if you could stop the insinuation. Scroobal. thanks for your comments. As Ah Guan said...

Uncle Yap, The Renci monk is only the tip of the iceberg. He is but one symptom of the larger disease infecting the system created by the PAP. E-Jay

Hi Dogtracker, 3whitetiger = Leetahbar? Explains everything I guess. His large red fonts almost made me think he was Clinton8888/Jefferson888 of the old sammyboy forum, but I guess even Clinton888 was a credible forummer compared to him. Cheers! E-Jay

My view: 1. "We are living in a modern world" and "A lot of religious people are very different now" is JUST A REHASH of Lim Boon Heng's call not to begrudge executives/politicians who get paid high bonuses by saying that "we now operate differently from the past"; see here...
