What a masterful display of the command of the Chinese language by Ong Ye Kung. Didn’t think much of him before this debate, but he has soundly rebutted the points by the 2 oppo clowns. The oppo clowns can’t even piece a complete sentence without stuttering or looking at the tablet.

 
Wow! OYK mandarin damn solid!

@Charlie99 Dont you think he seems a bit different when speaking in mandarin? More trustworthy?
 
the Opposition Chinese standard is appalling. from Channel 8 news clips, many of them struggled to speak Chinese, just several sentences but keep stuttering. they can really have a simple Chinese conversation with Chinese speaking only seniors ? they can't get their votes if they don't understand what they are saying. most PAP Chinese mps Chinese standard are ok.
 
He should have been a better choice than Ah Heng as PM...
 
Don't be fooled! Doesn't mean speaking well in Mandarin on TV means problems are solved! Ask OYK to speak Cantonese if he's that effective..
The seniors in Singapore are majority dialect speakers namely Cantonese n Hokkien. Most are not that efficient in Mandarin.

So so lah. You all never heard LTK or TLH speak Chinese before. I think this type of standard, my hair salon ah Tiong Bu also can argue better.
 
LOL, why care so much about debates hosted by the 158th presstitutes? You think that's a fair playing field? :biggrin:
 
LTK speaks Teochew better lah
 
I heard that LTK won in 1991 because he spoke fluent Teochew and connected well with the folks. And later, he attended almost every wake in his constituency

I remember his Teochew poem recited at the WP rally back in 88.
 
I left in 1981. Missed all those exciting rallies.

The MIW introduced the GRC, raised deposit sums plus many other ploys to curtail the number of opposition members in Parliament.

Been to Chiam’s, JBJ’s and LTK’s rallies... I’ve come to realise Sinkies still have fire in their bellies but we fight as one!
 
My multimillionaire minister speak chinese well does not mean he is a good man.
