Grassroots sources indicate that Tin Pei Ling would be able to defend MacPherson SMC on her own. She has shown a lot of improvement since GE2011. Please continue to underestimate her.

She got in because of GCT. She was in PAP because of husband.

What has she accomplished in life? She was just a junior consultant in EY before joining politics.

Hope wp can make their selection based on potential and not seniority although it is really hard to convince the seniors to accept. Heard that Tpl really pia ka liao with block visits throughout the years which is how she gained acceptance. If by the pap brand alone she sure gone case.

She has matured. And yes, she is a more hardworking MP than many of her comrades. But, I hope she loses. Nothing personal. Just want more opposition in parliament - the credible ones.

I am not so optimistic. It's never easy to defeat an incumbent, PAP or opposition, in a single seat contest, unless he or she fucked up big time.

Should be a close call. High stakes for Tin Tin. If win, she can cement her position in her party. If lose, she will forever be remembered for all her negatives.

This is what I would term "the Chen Show Mao effect". He may not have done much in Parliament, but CSM alone can inspire many Oxford and Cambridge qualified candidates to join the opposition.


Agree. If he is not contributing as much as most expect him to, he is certainly not a liability.

ok, but why TPL in MacPherson again ? they must have concluded that she is still the best choice.

macpherson was chopped out because tpl is consider a canerous wart within mp grc. the tpl and NS effect resulted in the worst eRection showing for woody. Since add in joo chiat, then something got to give. papig are now betting big, with strong support for opposition in joo chiat and braddell heights, woody need all the support he need to pull off a papig victory. papig dunno want tpl to pull down other mp grc electoral divisions vote counts while hoping the goondu heartlanders support at macpherson enough to pull tpl through.

That why WP want MP grc while willing to give up macpherson to nsp. It easier to achieve victory in mp grc than macpherson grc. too many poor people, old folks and malays at macpherson smc, these are the vote bank of papig.

Irrespective of how well (or not) Tin Pei Ling has performed as an MP, she will have the backing of the PAP artillery behind her when she contests the MacPherson ward.

The quality of the Opposition candidate is central to getting her booted out. If she's a Cambridge educated lawyer, even better but her lack of grassroots support may count against her. Also, unlike 2011, the Opposition can't now play the 'Kate Spade' immaturity card any longer and will have to seek alternative methods to attack her credibility.

The Achilles heel of WP candidate here is lack of groundwork since it was decided to contest here only after ERBC report was released. TPL got 4 years to walk the ground whereas HTR only got less than 4 months to cover the area. Hence HTR got to really impress and outperform TPL during campaigning to compensate her lack of grassroots outreach. Nonetheless it will still be a tough fight for her.

It is so easily to demolish the PAP. PAP has NO track record of good deeds, only that of evils ...CPF, Healthcare, flat prices, MRT ....so even if TPL is popular, her party's record would kill her election hope. The question is whether the WP candidate dares to go all out and show voters the dirty linen of the PAP.

uncle: my money still on TPL to win.... have said several times before, her groundwork is solid in her SMC and her rust root leaders are beri on the ball

true; she may have strong mountain, blank cheques... but she's also hardworking and know how to spend the cheques wisely.... and not on education tours, mangoes parties....

LTK and SL did foreseen a good fight between the 2, and their intention may well be for their candidate to get quality exposure and get her ready for GE2020
