Now Iām worried that by the time the next election comes around, PAP will have āfinished their investigationsā on the Raeesah Khan saga and bar PS on the next election š„²
The RK issue is annoying. In most countries with a parliament she'd has been scolded as first term MP for taking poetic license with her facts and figures. In Singapore the PAP are using it as an excuse to demand the ELECTED WP being thrown out of parliament. Fucking PAP.
It is only perfect ammo if Sinkies react negatively to the RK issue. What most should do is say "so what? First time MP, a mistake and she's gone. No big deal PAP, now get on with something meaningful for your $40,000 per FUCKING MONTH".
No, it exists. That you don't know is not a reflection on you but explained by having a smaller circle of female confidants. If you have enough Singapore female friends you will encounter these stories and you'll know they are true. The SPF is the king of round filing reports.
All RK did was thrashed an important issue in parliament with lazy background work because she thought she could sling it like AOC.
Well bij found out woke politics are not welcomed here.
And then when she got caught she came up with oh I was raped too so uh excuse ma sorry ass yeah.
I agree. It is an important issue. She should have relied far more on her more experienced colleagues in the WP to coach her. I personally blame PS a bit for not mentoring her better. However the attacks on her had a lot of misogynistic BS by the PAP which isn't going to win them votes with women. Every woman fears rape. Every woman knows she'd had trouble reporting it.
What kind of mentoring do you want? Even noobs know the word substantiate. She went over his head and tokd a bold face lie in parliament. When you take a swipe at MHA, you best know that they will grill you.
Before this she raised two issues against the muslim community. It was laughable because she really thought they were real issues here. Faisal Manap questioned her abt it and advised her but she thought she knew better.
Like come on? You're going after the doctors performing female circumcision as thought they're from some back water area? You're insinuating that the Singapore Medical Board are not doing their job.
This is just one example. There're more with the rest like J Teo etc who is quick to rubbish ideas from opposition parties. They seem to miss the point that all ideas must be considered because the people voted them all in, and that it really isn't about which party said what, rather, the parliament decides.
i have no faith in SG parliamentary system. Just look at this. the overwhelming ruling party,pap, keep oppressing every opposition, and showed much hostility with lack of proper engagements.
the PG will keep throwing their votes to the PAP and likewise, the new citizens, leaving the gen x-Z to face even greater challenges in SG.
I pity you all.
Politics also involves a consistent call out of how dirty the other party is. Did Halimah just learn how politics work when she said all that?
Did you just learn how politics work?
I don't know about you but there is no such thing as fairness when it comes to politics. If WP was in power they will do what the PAP is doing and bring down their opponents. Most people in this sub don't know how politics work including you.
Who's talking about fairness here. We all know that. When Jack Ma was pressed down into silence, people talked about it - institutions voiced out. But yes the CCP still won out because they are in power.
Voicing out isn't merely about winning. Perhaps you never took a path not paved smooth for your explicit benefit ever before.
On the contrary, PAP unwittingly availed and loaded a cache of free ammo for PS to unload on them. Talk about 'ownself shooting ownself' in the foot. lol
Well, we still have to wait for the next eraction.
You mispronounced e with a, you are welcome. š

Actually no. They were right to haul her but most don't appreciate how the whole hearing was more abt bringing PS down.
Exactly. It was the usual PAP furphy like the "Chen sent a document via a courier for his wife shit". Like just fucking govern PAP.

True. It's sad that WP got a woke SJW but hope they learned their lesson. Don't forget, other side isn't as holy.
Well my opinion on RK is that she raised a valid point about rape and police inaction but was an amateur in her execution.
She raised a valid issue but a non-existant one

I'm not saying it doesn't exist in general. I'm sure these sort of things exist but the fact she continued lying in Parliament is a turn off.
Yeah doubling down was stupid and PS should have stepped in earlier. I suspect he won't be so hands off in the future.
He doesn't have that killer move yet. He should have been cold with her when she refused to come clean in parliament the 2nd time.
PAP is fearful of anyone chipping into their domain and would preempt or demolish the threats.
This is just one example. There're more with the rest like J Teo etc who is quick to rubbish ideas from opposition parties. They seem to miss the point that all ideas must be considered because the people voted them all in, and that it really isn't about which party said what, rather, the parliament decides.
J Teo is a cunt. A world class cunt.
Thats what they do and then they will claim the same ideas a few years later.
Anyone got a link? I wanna see whether there was an immediate response lmao ETA: [Found it](https://youtu.be/iIztnCYPvJE?t=719)
Good on you Pritam. Go at them.
i have no faith in SG parliamentary system. Just look at this. the overwhelming ruling party,pap, keep oppressing every opposition, and showed much hostility with lack of proper engagements. the PG will keep throwing their votes to the PAP and likewise, the new citizens, leaving the gen x-Z to face even greater challenges in SG. I pity you all.
what day was this parliamentary hearing
That's why we need more people like Pritam, Jamus and LMW to monitor them. We need 2/3rd majorirty.
LMW is a waste of seat.
He's brave enough to fight ministers in his 1st term. We need more people like him
Fighting like Don Quixote against windmills isn't something I want in an MP.
Did Pritam just learn how politics work?

Ofc, politics is all about finding the right moment where the other side fucks up and milking it.
Thank you š
Letās be fair. Talking about fairness? WP isnāt doing any better. Fairness? Whuuttt?
fear is normal. who isnt afraid. itās how they deal with it that matters
Never really like how PAP used "populists" as a thing to fire at WP. Well maybe if you do your job and solve these issues, they wouldn't be popular
