Yeah I read somewhere before that he only converted to sinkie just before standing for election indeed. That’s different from others from Malaya who came to Spore thinking or rather thought they are part of the country only to be looked down by snobbish sinkie coolie descendants. My mother adopted father’s father in Malaya with plantation used to have two nonya baba mistresses from Penang. I don’t know why nonya or coolie descendant sinkies from 1800s think they are somehow greater than those migrated from Malaya in 1900s. Damn snobbish!
