.........I accept the fact that certain hardcore opposition supporters will have the mindset that any candidate from the opposition is better than any candidate from the PAP, even if we were to accept such an argument then shouldn’t we be looking at comparing the individual candidates from the different opposition parties before making a choice? Nope, Roy Ngerng and The New Era somehow have decided that when oppositions pit against each other any candidate from Worker Party is better than any candidate from SDP, any SDP candidate is better than any candidate from SPP and the list goes on……
And they say the PAP is authoritarian?
Simple logic, you can't understand? This is not authoritarianism, it is strategy. PAP is toast if the top 5 opposition parties can forge a coalition. The ground is ripe for the decimation of the PAP. Sycophants like you will have to face the music. You can be tried in sinkapore unlike your buddies, John Tan and Zeroo, who deserve to be sent to ISIS for 'treatment'.
It comes as a surprise when the opposition supporters whine all day along about the PAP’s suppose authoritarian behaviour but then went on to directly instruct the electorate to vote in a precise and rigid manner. Roy Ngerng and The New Era is encouraging group think by asking the electorate to vote blindly, anyone who is even remotely interested in political studies know that group think is one of the most dangerous element in politic as it can lead to ruling parties being apprehensive towards advice that did not originate from the group itself.
Why you jealous? Opposition finally understands sinkee ...sinkees need to be directed. PAP has been using this for decades. Now, Opposition doing same thing, you upset. What lah?
Order of preference base on………simply preference?
Any party but the PAP is good enough.
There was also no rational given as to how the “preference” order of the parties were being decided. Why is the Worker Party at the top? Do The New Era and Roy Ngerng have first hand knowledge of who will be the candidates from the opposition camp who will be competing for votes against each other hence they were able to decide which party’s candidate to vote for even before the GE begin? I can only hope they are base on some complex algorithm we mortal cannot understand and not just The New Era and Roy Ngerng’s personal preference.
Why you so worried? WP is in office and has proven themselves. You should ditch the PAP. Look at how well WP is managing the TC ...they did it without funds from the government for two years! PAP TC gets millions from government, yet they are charging such high fees. With coalition government including WP, sinkapore becomes SINGAPORE!
Conclusion: I believe that the general election is a very important event that allow us to vote for our preferred party and candidate to lead us in the next 5 years. For us to vote blindly for during the general election is an insult to our forefathers whom we inherit this country from.
We have voted blindly for 5 decades ...giving the vote to the PAP ...that party has made our lives hell! MRT crowded, expensive HDB, unaffordable healthcare, unemployment of PMET, strained infrastructure, low retirement savings ....all of them are the PAP doing. Then they reward themselves and cronies big bucks, eg. CEO of SMRT ...earning more than $2 million with nothing accomplished.
