Long live PAP! Minister to the rescue

[laksaboy]

He's a porn star in his spare time.

When you like what you do, work seems like play.

wen u audition 4 pornstar, dey examine ur which head? ...

Here is a porn star. His porn star name is Michael Pumper.

With help from our propaganda mouthpiece, she is now seen as "standing up for man mocked over hole in T-shrt".


Just why this is Top of the News or even considered worthy of being published is puzzling.

But then coming from the Straits Times, nothing is too cheap or unworthy of being used as propaganda for the PAP.

And so Jesslyn Tan posted an insensitive and contemptuous comment about Mr Tan. This ignited a furore as S'poreans rallied behind Mr Tan and denounced Jesslyn who has since apologized.

The chapter should have been closed then. Everyone makes mistakes after all, let alone a young lady like Jesslyn Tan.

Yet two days later, Indranee visited Mr Tan and posted her overly long status update on her Facebook and this issue is reignited all over again with

Indranee thinks it's important since Mr Tan is her constituent, fair enough.

But why should this be a Top News? Why should it even be news?

Will Indranee Rajah go to the defense of every constituent who suffers distress over a mockery?

If one day SPH newspapers have zero propaganda articles, I worry.
Because I may have slipped into another dimension.

The Tanjong Pagar GRC MP was defending a resident in her ward whose attire Miss Singapore Universe 2013 finalist Jesslyn Tan had mocked in a recent Facebook post.

Mr Koh Hee Huat, 55, was asleep in the MRT and wearing a T-shirt with a hole in it.

Ms Tan, 25, posted a photograph of him on Wednesday with the caption: "Holey moley. Sibei trendy worzxxz."

Sibei is a Hokkien word meaning "very".

Ms Indranee said many people had criticised the post, and Ms Tan had since removed it and apologised for being insensitive, "albeit online and not to Mr Koh directly".

But the MP said she wanted to address the issue from the man's perspective, "so people can understand the impact the episode has had on him".

Her post attracted more than 20,000 "likes", and was shared nearly 4,000 times.

Ms Indranee described the helper at Ye Shanghai Teochew Muay stall at Bukit Merah View as a hardworking man and a familiar face to her and cabbies on the night shift.

He is on his feet from evening until 3am, taking orders and dishing out the food into small plates, she said.
"He makes an honest living to support his mother and his family. His wife works at the same stall. He has a daughter waiting to enter polytechnic," Ms Indranee added.

She said Mr Koh was bewildered why he was singled out.

"His T-shirts have holes because he wears them for work. The stall has metal fixtures, which snag on the T-shirts, causing them to tear. It's just part and parcel of his work environment, in the same way that people who wear overalls may get grease stains, or outdoor workers get dust on their uniforms," she wrote.

Mr Koh also felt a deep loss of face and hurt, as many customers asked him about the comment, and he initially thought of quitting his job because of it, she added.

But his boss encouraged him to keep working, as did she and her grassroots leader.

Ms Indranee urged visitors to the area to encourage him.


"If anyone merits a boost, it is this quiet, hardworking, unassuming man. He may not be sibei trendy but he is definitely 'sibei ho.'" (Hokkien for very good)

Noting the adage "the pen is mightier than the sword" still holds true in the Internet age, she said: "A sword cuts deep but words can cut deeper. We need to have a care in what we say about others."
