April 8th, 2010 |
Author: Our Correspondent
As Chiam See Tong goes under the spotlight for wanting to contest the Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC in the next coming election (unless there are boundaries changes), his age and health conditions were under heavy scrutinization by the media and netizens alike. However, it seemed that the media had conviniently forgotten about Mr Teo Chee Hean and his words of wisdom as well as action that rocked the nation.
Sleeping Beauty Teo
Who would had forgotten how Mr Teo Chee Hean slept while his DPM Wong Kan Seng was speaking – and that in the full glory of the television screen. While Mr Teo may be potrayed as being deep in thoughts, had Mr Chiam been caught doing the same, it would be headline news with the caption: Chiam too old for his seat.
Teo’s Words of Wisdom
Spotted on the Young PAP’s Facebook were the quotes:
“You cannot watch the PAP and know if the elections are coming. Once the elections are over, we already start working the ground. It becomes so boring and so routine the media never reports on it. I don’t know when the elections will be. I can only tell you that with each passing day, the elections come one day closer.”
Mr Teo actually labelled ground work as ‘boring and so routine’. Does that mean that ‘Meet the People Session’ and even Community Projects are just ‘wayang’ tools for the MPs and Ministers alike? This coming out from the mouth of a PAP stronghold holds a lot of work.
As if the statement holds minimum weight, would Mr Teo agree that none of the Oppositions’ community work had gone notice by the media since the PAP was in control? Had Mr Teo also turn petty because the media highlighted the walkabout done by the SDA and RP?
Of course, his statement holds some truth as well as he correctly pointed out that “once the elections are over, we already start working the ground”. Work the ground they did in the last election when electricity bills are ever-increasing, houses become more unaffordable and transportation fees increases.
Thus, I urge readers to vote wisely and not put someone who sleeps and find ground work ‘boring and routine’ into the Parliament. Vote for people who can talk and make OUR views heard in Parliament.
The Choice is Yours!
