Csj seem to have the service of some PR adviser as he have hit the right note this time. And it includes releasing a film featuring his family to soften his image and he did at the right timing. And he spoke in hokkien and mandarin during rallies to appeal to the chinese speaking crowds. I don't think it sometime he will do last time.
He did caught pap by surprise and Now pap is resorting to the old tactic by launching a personal attack against him. The right thing csj should do is to stay clam and treat those smears in a dignify way by ignoring it. In such a way middle ground voters will take notice of the behavior of ruling party and SDP and it will likely backfire on pap.
that's right. they were banking that he would somehow self destruct or create some type of controversy from his outburst that would scare voters from him like in 2001 where he heckled gct asking him where is the money while lao goh didn't engage him and just walked off in which he mocked csj later at another rally for his antics and had the full support of those in attendance. this time csj played all his cards right and he's gaining fame and adoration over the strongest oppo at the moment which is wp.
Been a long time coming for csj. it's about time he got into parliament he deserves it after the jailing, fasting, humiliation in public and in the media etc.
This time around everyone smells blood that the PAP has truly fucked up big time you see new parties forming that are getting support, newbies with 0 political experience like HHH standing for election with money that isn't even hers.
