In the 2006 GE he told the crowd at a rally:
Suppose you had 10, 15, 20 opposition members in Parliament. Instead of spending my time thinking what is the right policy for Singapore, I'm going to spend all my time thinking what’s the right way to fix them, to buy my supporters votes?
By the 2011 GE, his tone had changed considerably:
I hope you will understand when these problems vex you or disturb you or upset your lives, please bear with us, we are trying our best on your behalf. And if we didn't quite get it right, I'm sorry but we will try better the next time. No government is perfect…we will make mistakes. I think you've got used to our style…we spend some time to talk, to explain.
What happen in GE2016? cry infront of the voters?
