I have always been intrigued by these bus tours organised by nearly all parties who have seats in Parliament. SDP, PAP, PA and WP are all engaged in this and what started out covering Malaysia has now extended to flights to neighbouring countries and even China. Spoke to couple of people in recent times and have been told that it was Chiam that used it to bring the residents together and build ground level support. Is that true? Also told that it was not politics 101 at grassroots level.
Also it seems unique to Singapore. Have not heard our neighbours or anyone else doing it.
