KJ attacks WP

[Confuseous]

‘Reform Party Chief Kenneth Jeyaretnam has launched a tirade against the Workers Party (WP) for not doing anything for Punggol East residents’. This is quoted from an Editorial in TRE.

Kenneth has a double first from Cambridge, so he must have a very intelligent mind. So, why is he attacking the WP and not the PAP? I think the reason is simple, he must have thought that the WP is the front runner and he is competing with the front runner in the election. Only by beating the front runner can he win the contest. He cannot be attacking a loser to be the next best loser in the contest. That would be quite a silly thing to do.

Given that Kenneth is an intelligent man, he must have read the situation very well. He claimed that he had done more for Punggol East than the WP and had raised the stalled renovation work at Riverdale Plaza and the WP had not done so. What could the WP do when it is not the MP of the constituency, not the ruling govt, not the
Town Council? The best the WP could do is to kpkb just like he had done and that is about it. It is the job and responsibility of the MP and Town Council to get the job done. Why didn’t Kenneth attack the PAP for the stalled renovation work?

Maybe he already knew that the PAP will lose this by election. So there is no need to waste time pulling the PAP down. It is a contest between Kenneth’s Reform Party and the Workers Party. I hope this is true. But I am no double first so I am unable to see the picture as clearly as Kenneth. PAP sure lose this time if Kenneth is right.

The voters could see more of Kenneth going after the WP. But Low Thia Kiang is likely to ignore him as his target is the PAP. So the WP would be attacking the PAP in full force and allowing the RP to attack them on the flank. Hope Low Thia Kiang is right and the attack by the RP will not cause any dent to his campaign.

For all his supposed intelligence this fool couldn't even win.

WP is arrogant and not cooperative, and it makes itself the enemy of all the other opposition parties in Singapore. It is not a surprise at all for KJ to attack WP.

Teochew Low waited patiently for over 10 years, serving his Hougang ward dutifully and quietly only to wait for his chance to launch WP into the next level - and you expect him to share the spolits with the rest? That is beyond a madman's dream.
The tide has turned slightly towards WP as Singaporean are looking for alternatives from the PAP reign, but not to the point of a total overhaul. Either a PAP with more passion or a "second" PAP-style but with more passion is appealing now.

The tide has not turned towards a SDP or any other form of needs yet, if ever.

Double first Double last he's doing nothing to help the situation

What's worse are these assholes are trying to call low a racist or chauvainst while he was patient and hardworking while that kj thinks that he being the son of some famous opposition figure and being half white somehow deserves to get the spoils without any work.

Low would have accepted some meeting if the offer was not so silly as you run TC, I enter parliament. Low, despite his education and speech, is more rational that Chee or KJ

KJ chances of gathering any PAP votes are very low. but KJ chances of gathering the Opposition WP votes are significantly higher. so he chose to go on the offensive attack against WP. no choice. since he is contesting the election. no point pulling any punches back.

Agreed. Nearly vote for PAP if not for their talking cock session yesterday.

Not cooperative in what sense?

BTW, NSP and SPP do not appear to have issues with WP.

 

[HTOLAS]

I've got to agree with you on this. LTK worked very hard to build up the organization and discipline of the WP. Along the way he has managed to bring a group of dedicated supporters with him and he has groomed them to function independently of him as well. This can be seen from the manner in which WP mobilizes the ground whenever the need arises.

Some people choose not to organize and instead accuse WP of arrogance and, even worse, racism. This is uncalled for. Instead, spend a little time to get your act together.

What's worse are these assholes are trying to call low a racist or chauvainst while he was patient and hardworking while that kj thinks that he being the son of some famous opposition figure and being half white somehow deserves to get the spoils without any work.

 

[TuaGow]

kj is a cheap piece of trash, taking cheap shot at wp, just like his father.

 

[Fook Seng]

Are we seeing the end of KJ after this election? He seems to have lost his marbles.

 

[Fook Seng]

I guess he meant not cooperative in stepping aside and allowing the losers alone to stand in this election. And I am not joking. That is the real reason.

Agree about the trash part. But still feel that JBJ had contributed his life to the opposition.

 

[wwabbit]

JBJ is still considered one of the opposition heroes and should be respected for what he has achieved.
Unfortunately he slowly became a liability to his own party and could not see that it was time for him to go in order for the opposition cause to move forward.

I find it incredulous that people follow KJ just for his name. Kind of like LHL leading in his father's name....

Other than the fact that his dad is jbj this fellow has nothing to show for the opposition. It's even worse than living off your past glories it's living off the glories of somebody else all because you happen to share the same surname.

Seriously speaking were it not for his surname ppl would probably give him even less respect than what he currently has and that's saying a lot.


well looks like he's going to sully the name of his father.

YES.

I never thought he could win ANY seat anywhere in SG. Now I don't think he is even capable of winning back his deposit.

 

[ForFun]

Nothing to show is harmless. But this piece of shit, just like GMS, is fooking up the opposition as a whole just when the march is on to bring in more oppo MPs into parliament. Clowns like these two and DL are throwing spanners into the march. They are there not for Singapore but for themselves.
