You are right. Actually, his English is very poor, with grammatical errors all over the place.
To cover this, needs to speak like Ah Beng, so that his deficiencies are seen to be part of his personna.
Like those sarong party girls who try to cover their bad English by speaking with twangs which comes from God knows where.
What kind of politician wannabe speak like an ah Beng if they possess ambitions of joining the political arena one day?CCS as psle top scorer born of a seamstress woman was obviously destined for greater things,whatever greater things meant in Singapore context.
Obviously this is not a persona but a product of his upbringing and background which was one of extreme coolie and farmer which is very sad.
That no matter how high he climb the stench of low ses Beng and coolie still lingers around him.......ironic considering he is supposed to be an academic.
