""But there was one bad moment in GE 2001. Chee Soon Juan confronted and shouted at me in a Jurong market, alleging wrongly that we had loaned money to Soeharto. I ignored him. It proved to be the right approach.""

""Since my name is mentioned in the Bukit Batok by-election, I say: don't kick up a fuss over CSJ rudely shouting at me in Jurong. Words or actions do not define a person; character is not important for a would be MP, so say SDP.
And the fox to the farmer, "Hire me to look after your hen house. I have the perfect plan". --- get""

""Murali said, "I do not regard politics as a career but rather as a cause and a sacred duty". Well said. No wonder Halimah Yaacob, likened you to a stalk of rice bowing with humility and duties, unlike the arrogant lallang swaying in the wind. Stay sincere, humble and true to yourself. Best wishes. --- get""

Then this came along from one of the scions of Lee Kong Chian -

""Toh Han Shih in china, some chinese secretly want to be government officials with the hidden motive of becoming rich through taking bribes, but would never admit it. unfortunately, the PAP has let in some people like teh cheang wan and wee toon boon to become PAP ministers in singapore""

""Toh Han Shih mr goh chok tong, many years ago, you said the metaphorical singapore football team did not score goals, because singapore footballers were too kiasu (cautious), in a reference to singapore scholar civil servants in government linked companies.""
