MP offends Sgporeans('broken English' comment on TV)
-
Another diversion from the real issues. Make an MP a scapegoat, put him on the news the whole week, and people will forget what happened last week.
-
didnt he say he was quoting the mrt spokesman?
did he misquote? did anyone hear the exact words of the spokesman?
-
Mrt breakdown has got nothing to with the wayang events after that.
-
That is the trick.
Now the whole nation is distracted by the seng incident and no one is focusing the MRT breakdown.
So, in the end, Seng have saved the day making a honest mistake.
More bonus for Mr Seng !!!!
Of course, the rest want to join in the fun to get more bonus and SEEN to be doing work.
-
Read the papers the past few days, everyday 1 page is dedicated to his "didn't mean it" remarks. Today is Shamugam's turn, make a guess who's on tomorrow?
Any more news on trains? Nope, just orchard road, and his lousy misquotes.
-
There should be no more news on the MRT so that pple can forget and continue to live their boring life.
This trick works every time for Singapore.
Remember the taxi hike.
Lots of complaint and unhappiness and in the end, nothing happened and case closed.
Cos no one follow up and the press will not be stupid to re-start any discussion.
Same for the salary review and tranport fare increase.
Singapore people have short attention span and always focus on insignificant and stupid issues. (I think the Seng incident is blown out of proportion; so he made a mistake and he apologise; move on)
-
This is just like the usual PAP general elections tricks.
1997 JBJ incident, 2001 chee soon juan incident, 2006 James Gomez affair, 2011 opposition wised up and instead PAP made all the garbage remarks.
This state media serves the interests of the PAP regime, using small tricks to divert and distract, manipulate public opinion.
Enough is enough with such filth.
There is no sincerity to tackle and discuss real issues at all.
-
To add on, Tin Pei Ling's posting in Facebook on Cooling off Day . . ..
60.1 percent partially to be blamed to give them the mandate to do as they like by ignoring the citizens.
-
Let's move on.
-
It is an honest mistake, let's move on.

He should have tick off the MRT spokesman, not regurgitate what was said.
When a report is given to an MP, and he delivers the report to the public, it means he has accepted the report.
-
he said what he said
dont come and say simi taken out of context, get other fellow MP to cover up etc
-
Ignore it lah,you know what kind of standard answer you will get from these people.Just move on...

he is not anglophile.

Since majority of Singaporeans don't speak good english, it's time to do away with it and adopt local languages like what other countries all do.
Singapore should not be abnormal in this regard.

Abnormal according to your own misguided perception.
