Eng Huat needs Desmond's official approval for Hougang upgrading. WTF!

[Confuseous]

Elected MP of Hougang, Png Eng Huat, will have to seek the support and approval from rejected MP, Desmond Choo, for the housing or upgrading programmes for Hougang residents. The former is elected by the ultimate authority of the country, the people, the real owner of the land. The latter is appointed by a political party that happens to be the Govt of the day.

The title of Desmond Choo is grassroot adviser. Is it a part of the govt? Is Desmond Choo an employee of the govt, earning a salary? Why is a grassroot adviser vested with so much authority over a people’s elected representative? Is this the right or correct way of how democracy should be practised?

In a democracy, it is always of the people, by the people and for the people. The Elected MP is of the people, by the people and working for the people. The rejected MP cannot be of the people and by the people. He is an appointee of the govt in a capacity that is neither an employee nor the govt. I am not very familiar with this thing called grassroot adviser. Why must an elected MP, the people’s representative who earns a right to sit in Parliament, have to seek the approval of a grassroot adviser whose authority lies in where?

What is a grassroot leader? An official or unofficial community leader of the people, by the people or appointed by the govt?

This I really cannot understand. That is why our leaders always tell us we are different, we are unique. And that we are daft, to have accepted this as par for the course in the past 50 years).

Desmond Choo is like a lingering ghost haunting Hougang.

After reading this post, I feel very sad for our country. The few good people want change. But the rest are apathetic and are only concerned about the value of their properties and lifestyle.

Hougang is a truly remarkable constituency. My respect goes to them.

 

[palden]

Hahaha. Ong wins but lost to Desmond. In the first place why bother to hold an erection?

 

[yinyang]

In the first place why bother to hold an erection?

Erection = upgrading involves erection stuff. Unless our (forever) hard on bloke thinks otherwise:p

 

[leetahbar]

doesn't everyone see that this is so obvious?

every eligibile estate qualifies an UPGRADING. it's a big conspiracy. hdb purposely designs n builds flats in such a way to later allow pap to claim credit to "upgrade" it.

what is design? what is estate planning and etc? all these should have been properly done on papers, endorsed and finally executed in the best manners to serve the people. why does hdb held back and purposely construct flats that DO NOT HAVE LIFTS STOPPING EVERY FLOORS only later to be highlighted by wayanging mps to propose UPGRADING?

can everyone see the kind of ploy paps are truly good at?

in fact, these are either design flaws that hdb needs to FULLY RECTIFY & SOLELY BE RESPONSIBLE - with or without pap's dramatising and claim credits for it and exploit it as a political point scoring.

DESMOND CHOO'S thick-skinned purpose of remaining in hougang is a PATIENCE GAME. he has nothing to lose and plenty to win and claiming undue credits. what about his teochew porridge? who fund it? desmond choo himself or the pap's lackeys using the peoples' money? so the porridge is served free but the credit unscrupulously goes to desmond. is that FAIR? of course, not! but on the big picture, desmond has stolen a political plus point. accumulate all those and come the next GE, people might think he really does all those "good deeds" which are obviously all kelonged.

this is the kind of political cheapskate ploys paps are good at - deceiving the people with fake charities and claiming credits for it.

how many really benefit from GST and its subsequent increments? what is GST motto: HELP THE POOR; NO ONE WOULD BE LEFT BEHIND. in the end, are the voters living better, spending easier, less stressful n better living environment.

NO!

things get more expensive by at least 7% (gst). pays are still mostly stagnant. so how can their claim be honest?

yes, the paps can control the cost of living. but sadly, they won't. if they cannot grab your balls as casually as they want, they shall lose control over the voters.

so people, please WISE UP!!

do not be fooled by their cheapo antics and underhanded tactics. if they wanna to do it and really improve our lives, they could have done that long ago. they are trying their best to wayang further and more sophsticatedly now is becos they are losing our votes.

just think....

what if they have won more votes this GE....do u think they would change and soften their tyrannic and arrogant tactics? NO WAY!!

so again, DO NOT BE FOOLED!!

for so many years, we have been silent. it's about time we speak our minds, free ourselves and most importantly:

[SIZE=5][/SIZE]VOTE THEM OUT WHEN THE CHANCES COME AGAIN!!

 

[steffychun]

Demon-cratic Singapore. Never to face sanctions or No-Fly Zone

DESMOND CHOO and corrupted PAP FUCK OFF from HG. The HG residents have made the choice.

[myfoot123]

PA is milking Hougang taxpayers money to return this kind of shit. PA is not partisan? myfoot!!

 

[Fook Seng]

This is really what the fuck PAP gov system.
Please ask Desmond Choo to fuck off from Hougang.

Maybe they need to be thrown off physically.

 

[Fook Seng]

Shouldn't grassroot leaders be elected rather than appointed?

 

[no_faith]

lidat also can? he come out and pull votes for fun lor.:oIo:

 

[winnipegjets]

This Desmond dude is a welfare bump. He gets paid 5-figure monthly salary by the union for doing nothing and with no useable skills. Then he gets paid by the PA for being an adviser. Without these incomes, he would have to get a real job which we all know he would not be able to get one in the private sector since he has no achievement to show.
Workers should protest that their union dues are used to support a PAP bum!!!!!
