What happen to Ramseth?

Ramseth claims that he's O Levels and regular police constable only. I find that unbelieveable from reading his postings over the past half a year. He's certainly more intelligent and knowledgeable than many of us here, yours truly included. I think he's pulling legs for amusement, with implied insult to those with papers but without brains.

One thing I can't figure is, why's he supporting a madman like GMS?

Maybe he is like Goh Keng Swee. Smart chap, poor judgment of other people.
 
If he contest I will vote for him. I will try to register at the area he register.

I will vote for Ramseth too.

will also vote for Tan Lead Shake if he contests my constituency.


The oppositions can nominate 5 sacks of shits and I will still vote for them. :D

Ramseth quotes anything from William Shakespeare to Mark Twain, Maynard Keynes to Paul Krugman fluently off the cuff. It can't be Wiki or Google. You have to know who are these people and have an idea of what they said first before you can even Wiki or Google. If Singapore O Levels produce students like that, Singapore education is world class.

I think between him and GMS is something like triad bond, they both have some gangster background.

Ramseth is definitely an intelligent person, not your typical ranter without any reason. But I wonder why he chooses to be partnered with people like GMS who is an idiot (and I am mincing my words). The intelligence of both is akin to a university undergrad and a mid-secondary school boy.

That's why I say, they may have gang and triad bonds between them. It was mentioned in some gangster threads not too long ago, but unfortunately, all those threads disappeared.

Ah Ram sometimes howlian here and there but I am quite certain he is a nice bloke! He is the 'if can't help you, won't kill you" type of character, unlike backstabbers.

Ah Ram, where art thou?

Ah Ram's uncle pretty influential and he sure knows what SS/triad is all about. Not so for GMS. He is just blur like sotong but act very intellectual. Without opening his big mouth, GMS with white hair, spects and a little tummy, actually looks like one.

I agree, he is a nice chap. Nothing against him.
 
ya, i agree too. last year, i seek his advice via pm, he gave me his take and the same time pluck me. but no offence! i also enjoy seeing him pluck lee tah bar with his sibeh fluent angmo. really good english.:)

he must remember one thing "凡被别人嫉妒者,必有让人妒羡之优长“

My interaction with Ramseth over the past 5-6 months leads to these observation:
a he is a knowledgeable chap on most topics;
b once awhile, he throws smoke bombs;
c he can be helpful and kind if he wants to;
d he is very proud of himself - knowledge and looks;
e he is very witty, skin also very thick - just what is needed to be a politician;
f he is more intelligent than GMS !!!

Agree with all your points except point f. This is based on 5-6 years (perhaps more) of interaction with Ramseth and GMS in forums.

The problem with GMS is not lack of intelligence. He's as intelligent as anyone else, perhaps even more so than most. His possible problem is ego and stubborness, which sometimes may result in wrong judgement.

The thing that Ramseth has over him (and many others) is not intelligence, it's street-smarts/savvy.

But rather than you and I commenting, perhaps those forummers who know them personally can comment. :o
 
When I say PAP has successfully cultivated a nation of snobs, I'm referring to people who are not well educated yet dare look down of some opposition candidates. The reason ? Because they compare them with PAP candidates, and they used the qualifications of PAP candidates to look down on opposition candidates. This is what I would call "transferred snobbery". I think Ivebert is one those.

Agree with comment.
I have a different term to describe this, "vicarious snobbery".
It's not just snobbery, many people live their lives vicariously through others in many ways.
 
Ah Ram good candidate although O levels .... he can be good MP provided he don't everytime mabuk !!!:D
Will vote for him if he's standing for any election! On paper, he might not be on par with some miw but talks abt intelligence, I wld say he's worldly-wise! Hve seen some MBAs eggheads in my company, some are true performers n rest are just by-standers! Can't really judge the book by it's cover....frankly, there are so many wise men in tis forum! Awesome...:D

Very doubtful that he only has O levels, he was previously an international relationship manager.
Even if he doesn't have qualifications, his posts and style of writing clearly indicate that he is well educated and intelligent. Lack of paper qualifications doesn't mean not well educated.

He and GMS are probably friends, because of their time in WP and possibly their similar thoughts on how SG is being governed. Again can ask those forummers here who know them. :o
