2006 Election aftermath
What do you think was on voters minds when Lee Hsien Loong decided to increase the GST to 7% and increase ministers pay shortly after he was given a strong mandate the 2006? When he campaigned for a strong mandate in 2006, his message was he will take care of the poor, look after Sngaporeans and address the widening income gap. But the moment he got into office his priority was to increase GST and increase his ministers' pay.
Now that it is election time he is saying the same things again - that he will take care of Singaporeans and help those in need. These is only one intelligent line (and countless unintelligent ones) I remember from George Bush:"If you fool me once shame on you. If you fool me twice, shame on me..." - George Bush. -
3 questions for you:
1) Is your life better now than it was 5 years ago?
On a sidenote, it has definitely been better for ministers whose pay increases year after year.
(Compare now vs 5 years ago)
2) Are you more hopeful of the future now than it was 5 years ago?
(Compare now vs 5 years ago)
3) Do you think with the workers party representing you in parliament, providing the checks and balances and competition that you need, do you think you get better government policy?

Goh Chok Tong was quoted as saying on Channel News Asia last night. “What mistake has George Yeo made? You can take a minister and criticise him for not delivering on perhaps housing and transport. Like Wong Kan Seng you can say he let Mas Selamat escape. George Yeo, what has he done to deserve this? And he is a core member,” he was quoted as saying on Channel News Asia last night.
However, the damaging statement has been removed today from Channel News Asia.
