Some people commented in some blogs that it would have been better for me to participate in the general election, rather than the presidential election. I like to explain my decision....

Some people may prefer some other candidates and not me, but that is all right. There is really no need for them to insult me or smears my character or reputation.....

Some people will know which smear statements are rubbish and should be ignored. But there are other people who ask - is this true? We do have quite a large segment of people who are fickle and naive, and may believe the smears...

Some people have the impression that the older generation supports the PAP and the younger generation is likely to vote differently. From the results of many surveys carried out in my blog, I come to a different conclusion....

“Some people say that all their non-endorsed candidates will be declared ineligible. I do not agree. If this is the outcome, there is no need for TT to stand. I expect that there will be a 2 or 3 corner contest.”

And he had the press to thank for his wife's go-ahead,he said. "She's worried about what others think. Her friends stoked her fears too, telling her how some people would say nasty things.

Yesterday, when contacted by this newspaper, Mr Tan Kin Lian explained that the thought arose after some people had asked him to do so, in order "to give the other candidate a better chance against Dr Tony Tan" - a view that was shared by political observers whom Today spoke to.

Tan Kin Lian: Minister for Health Khaw Boon Wan suggested that some people can consider sending their elderly parents to a nursing home in Johor Bahru, where the cost is less than half of the cost in Singapore.This created a big uproar....

There are some people who have said, in the Internet, that they would give their votes to the candidates who state specifically the amount that they would donate away to charity from the salary of the President. I do not intend to respond to their call and give any specific figure or guarantee.

Some people have been warned by the police against protesting outside DBS’s Shenton Way headquarters. For those who wish to take effective action, I urge that you first master your own emotions before fighting back.

Mr Tan told Today that "some people have suspicions I'm doing this for the S$4 million salary". He added: "But I've said I'm going to donate most of it to charity." "So it's not for the salary ... I am doing this not for myself, but to give the people in Singapore a choice."

On FaceBook, Tan Kin Lian recently wrote: Some people want to donate to my campaign, but they prefer to be anonymous. The election rules require all donations to be from Singapore citizens and to be recorded. I suggest that they can ask a friend (who is a Singaporean) to make the donation – if they do not wish to be named.
