PE: Candidates unveil election symbols

By Sharon See | Posted: 18 August 2011 0001 hrs​

SINGAPORE: The four presidential candidates have unveiled their election symbols, which will be printed on the ballot paper.

This time round, the ballot paper will also include a black-and-white photograph of the candidates, along with the symbols.

Dr Tan Cheng Bock's symbol is a palm tree. "The leaves of the palm represents our multiracial society, the trunk represents them coming together, and the roots represents us taking root in Singapore," he said on his Facebook.

Mr Tan Jee Say's symbol is a heart. It stands for conscience and empathy, he said.

Dr Tony Tan's symbol is a pair of glasses which resembles the trademark spectacles he wears.

"No one ever ruined his or her eyesight by taking a long term view," he said on his Facebook.

Mr Tan Kin Lian's symbol is known as "Hi-5". He said the raised hand signifies willingness to do public service, while the five fingers signify his values of honesty, fairness, positive attitude, courage and public service.

Judging by logos:

TKL logo = Best no contest
TCB logo = OK not bad
TT logo = Short-sighted
TJS logo = Dating agency is it?

spectacle implies bad eyesight

speech bubble means talk only (no action), somemore the fingers spread so wide like surrendering..

Choose the one with a Heart who has a conscience.

 

[krafty]

me also think that conscience is a vitality for our society. please ask tsj to elaborate what conscience can do for our society?

Choose the one with a Heart who has a conscience.

 

[Leepotism]

If you have a conscience you would not do evil to others to benefit yourself. That's conscience.

 

[krafty]

talk is easy. ask him to quote examples and illustrate conscience with action. i hope that by asking him this will help propel him in the pe.

If you have a conscience you would not do evil to others to benefit yourself. That's conscience.

No way voting the heart, he's from SDP 1

 

[methink]

Isnt voting PAP even worse? Especially the one who cant take the long term view?

Stupid claim that he can see far with the spetacles. Look at what our country is turning into?

 

[red amoeba]

I question TCB's symbol - he chose the travellers palm....traveller's palm ....meaning Sinkies are travellers? Or we shld welcome the lot of travellers (FTs) travelling to our land?

Noteworthy, traveller's palm was recently all chopped down because the space between the trunk and the fonds collect water and provide a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

I have nothing against TCB...i am only against voting for TT...LOL

 

[red amoeba]

TT's symbol = spectacles represent taking a far-sighted view...LOL...most people wear glasses becos they are short-sighted..yes, old people wear reading glasses, but u don't wear them walking around !

So, his logic of long-term view...is to do without the glasses. Those are glasses not telescope or binoculars !

 

[jw5]

I rather like TKL's symbol.
TJS one is so silly and mushy. :o
TT one is what? Show he blur isit?
