SINGAPORE: AFacebook post by Dr Vivian Balakrishnan has triggered a ripple of reaction among online users on Cooling-Off day.


Writing to the Elections Department on Thursday (Sep 10), the Minister for Environment and Water Resources said that the post was the result of a “bug” and he has askedFacebook to investigate the matter.


“It has been brought to my attention that aFacebook post that was originally uploaded on Sep 4, 2015, has been auto-posting recurrently since then,” said Dr Vivian in a statement. “As myFacebook and Twitter accounts are linked, an associated tweet was also generated at the same time. Despite multiple attempts by the page administrators to stop this, the problem recurred at 1.52am on Sep 10, 2015.”


“We have contactedFacebook headquarters to conduct an investigation into the source of this bug. We have also requested that the page be locked down to prevent any further postings,” he added


Facebook has told Channel NewsAsia that it is looking into the matter.


The post on Dr Vivian’s Facebook page, which is about meeting voters while on the campaign trail in Holland-Bukit Timah GRC, first appeared on Sep 4 at 5.53am. The post was accompanied by photos of Dr Vivian greeting residents while on his walkabout. An associated tweet also appeared on his Twitter page.

A check of Dr Vivian’s Twitter page shows that the same post from Sep 4 was repeated on Monday, Sep 7 and again on Tuesday, Sep 8.

PAP Vivian Balakrishnan defend himself breaking election law, blame Facebook

admin / 2 hours ago









Former Minister Vivian Balakrishnan today responded to media queries over his infringement of the election law and he blamedFacebook for the “glitch”.

The offending post was put up at 1.52am thismorning, and hence has infringed the election law where no campaigning is allowed on cooling-off day.

Vivian Balakrishnan engaged a media spokesperson who said that the minister has explained to the Elections Department that he is aware that theFacebook post in question – which was first published on Sept 4 – has been “auto-posting recurrently”.

However, States Times Review has confirmed that Vivian Balakrishnan did not post the follow wordings “Met many, many more of our Cashew family today during campaigning…” from a search on hisFacebook and Twitteraccount in 2015 at all. There is no such posting on September 4 either.

Vivian Balakrishnan is also unable to produce evidence backing up his claim that the post appeared recurrent as he claimed.

SINGAPORE – A post about an election walkabout published on Minister for Environment and Water Resources Vivian Balakrishnan’s Facebook page last week has been “auto-posting recurrently”, resulting in it being published on his Facebook page in the wee hours of Cooling-off Day, the minister has explained.

On Cooling-off Day, campaigning is not allowed and election advertising must not be published or displayed. Election advertisements that were put up on the Internet must be left unchanged once the campaign silence period kicks in at midnight. Programmatic advertising — the use of technology to automatically deliver digital ads online and on social media platforms — should not be conducted on both Cooling-off Day and Polling Day.

But screengrabs of a tweet on Dr Balakrishnan’s Twitteraccount linking to theFacebook post with the time stamp indicating it was published today have been circulating on the Internet, with some questioning if electoral rules had been broken.

A spokesperson for Dr Balakrishnan – who is leading the People’s Action Party (PAP) team defending their seats in Holland Bukit-Timah GRC – said the minister has explained to the Elections Department that he is aware that the Facebook post in question – which was first published on Sept 4 - has been “auto-posting recurrently”. As his Facebook and Twitteraccounts are linked, an associated tweet was also generated today.

“Despite multiple attempts by the page administrators to stop this, the problem recurred at 1.52am on Sept 10, 2015. We have contacted Facebook headquarters to conduct an investigation into the source of this bug,” said Dr Balakrishnan.

He added: “We have also requested that the page be locked down to prevent any further postings.” Both the Facebook post and tweet have been removed from the respective social media platforms.

In response to queries from TODAY, the Elections Department (ELD) said several election advertising postings on Twitter and Facebook by a few candidates and parties were made in the early hours of Cooling-off Day. Of the parties, People’s Action Party, People’s Power Party and the Reform Party were named.

Upon noticing these postings, the ELD’s Assistant Returning Officer had reminded these candidates and parties of the rules which prohibit election advertising on Cooling-off Day. “These have since been rectified,” the ELD said.

If there's a bug, usually there would be a whole lot more people complaining about it, around the world. And the web developers would take note.

Holland-Bukit Timah residents, please do not vote for this shameless liar. :wink:
