In GE2011, Tin Pei Ling was only 28. Dr Koh Poh Koon was ten years older at 38. Perhaps the PAP didn't search hard enough so that they failed to spot Dr Koh for GE2011? Or did they judge Dr Koh to be less suitable than Tin Pei Ling then?

Not sure if political parties can pick the date of rally. If so, the PAP probably thought it didn't matter whether Friday or Saturday - their "massive crowd" would still be within 300, half of them grassroots helpers. The Straitstimes, no surprise here, always chooses a close-up shot near the...

A number of MPs have quit their jobs so that they can focus on their MP duties. Is Dr Koh going to quit his job as a colorectal surgeon if he wins? I feel he will be able to contribute more to society as a colorectal specialist than as an MP. If he holds on to both jobs, then he'll be juggling...

Can't afford small cars COEs? Take public transport lah. Goondo you!

Lee Li Lian's chances are very good in this BE, compared to GE2011. The conditions are favourable to her: 1) In GE2011, she was against a PAP incumbent. The PAP won only by a mere margin of 4204 votes. This time round, Dr Koh is an unknown apart from being a colorectal specialist. 2) In...

Have played nearly every type of card games - 5-card poker, 3-card poker, 3 pictures, pontoon, texas hold'em (RWS), casino war (genting). No favourite because lost money in all :( Lately, leaning more towards pontoon.

Nice sharing of stories and experiences by all you guys. Nice read lol. When ever I go to GH,I play slots 60% of the time and the other 40% I play table games such as Three Pictures and (more recently) Pontoon. So I can relate to some of your experiences. I have been to both MBS and RWS -...

Hi aurvandil, Is it true that Pontoon (in Genting and RWS) has the lowest house edge? Between Blackjack and Pontoon at RWS, which one is a better bet? I was at RWS recently, saw quite a few Pontoon tables either empty or with few players. Don't know if because hard to win...?

Very disturbing to hear a MP condoned Palmer's behaviour just because he admited the affair. Did she forget that Palmer is MP and Speaker of Parliament? The admission doesnt make the extra marital affair more right, correct?
