Thank you for mentioning my name at your speech, Mr Giam. Not to belittle the role that parliamentarians play in our political landscape but change and checks don't just come from elected politicians alone hor. Just sayin'.
You know who are the real checks on the ruling party AND the opposition parties? Regular folks like us, who hold the right to vote, and who hold the right to decide who gets to govern us. Some of us have blogs. Some of us use Facebook. Some of us talk at coffee shops.
Regardless of the space we choose to voice our concerns, and to exercise our citizenship, remember that we are the hands that open the doors to send you to Parliament, and we are also the hands that can yank you lot out.
Disregard the voice and the will of the people at your own peril.
