We know an agenda makes a priority give way and nothing to be exasperated about if you know. I can give a real life example happening within my circle. The chairman of a condo was very demanding on his managing agent, making the male manager who "went by the book" do all kinds of silly things...

Exactly. Ask this one question to any forummer who is pyro-ing this chap - "Would it be good that the YSL incident did not happen", none of them will say "No". Nobody is such an imbecile - even in the opposite direction as him.

Because PAP is one party and opposition is a few parties? It's like saying why you as one person make one decision quite easily, but when you discuss a matter with your family, your family finds it more difficult to make a unanimous decision at times.

Agree. Who thinks it is not ridiculous to say that there is no difference between one and two viable parties (by making the silly claim that either one are "monopolies") but a whole world of difference between two and three viable parties.

The chap would of course not have the facts correct by intention. The one I hear most about a "two-party system" is from Chiam See Tong. I don't know if forummers remember or note the same thing as me, but that is what I notice. LTK, SL or CSM has never or hardly mentioned "two-party system"...

I'm not bothered by labels of "deserving", "arrogance" or numbers cited, but I place more importance and emphasis on the arguments a forummer actually uses. The Monster Raving Looney Party is not given a straight fight in any ward in UK, and I think they are more interesting, relevant...

At the end of the day, how many parties are enough? One party is clearly out for most. Some may not welcome two parties saying its not democratic enough, but USA, UK and a whole host of other countries sold themselves as "democratic" by just this criteria. You can be more "democratic" if you...

The Kuok Group (founded by Robert Kuok) is the organisation that former minister George Yeo is working for now.

NSP created the problem for themselves when they announced they would not rule out contesting Hougang. They did so because 1) WP entered MK, which they made the hardly-credible argument that it was Jalan Besar, and 2) self-assumed that WP will enter Tampines despite that WP did not say so. I...

We had 5 BE in the past and none were called more than 3 months after a seat was vacated. If it was not called after 3 months, it didn't until GE. It shows how bad an idea it is for the PAP government to control the elections dept.

Slightly different from a troll - a troll needs attention and rebuttals to continue, without that it is starved. This chap needs a personal ranting space and the thread won't die until the TS himself gets tired after months/years/whatever. I'm fine with that. A troll wants to taunt forummers...

You have to understand that they were former members and would disagree with them more than the PAP. You get the same kind with every party SDP - Jarrod Luo, Khalis (Facebook), NSP - Edmund Ng (mass spam emails), SPP - Desmond (to the press). The platforms they chose to pyro incidentally are...

Re: ST journalist: Khaw is correct that HDB flat sizes has not shrunk over past 15 ye Well, you can take it as Jessica Cheam trying to "carry balls", but it may also be that she's being sarcastic and taking a dig at Khaw, indirectly pointing out why Khaw chose 15 years and not more.

MDA's own stupid rap video violated every TV code in the world.

So this is GN's May Day Message from USA?

Just noteworthy that the SDP was totally and absolutely censored and unreported during May Day, be it their press release or SC event. A total no-give-face to SDP by the media, despite reporters turning up.

Slavery Day Party (SDP)?

Not true. Admin doesn't require much skill, but is for women with not very high qualifications, which makes up a very big pool in Singapore, hence never short of recruits in all industries. No company ever has to worry that they cannot get admin staff. You are right that retail sales and...

What are some of the jobs that are so in demand (more than 20, 30 interviewees for one job) or hardly in demand (every day advertise also no one wants to come forward). To me, the first would have to be: 1) IT related 2) Design, esp graphic 3) Accounts 4) Admin The jobs that people...

Don't worry, if all graduates spoke the same way, we'll be finished long ago.
