Private First Class SG

From The Satay Club

http://satayclub.net/2011/04/another...workers-party/

This guy TAN JEE SAY was educated at Oxford

Served as SM Goh's PPS and joined a leading MNC after leaving administrative service. Now joining WP and possibly gonna be fielded in Joo Chiat to fight Chan Soo Sen and Andrew Kuan (independent)

Seems like more and more "STAR" candidates are joining the opposition!!

Opposition has introduced:

1) Chen Show Mao (Rhodes Scholar and law firm Partner, from Harvard/Stanford/Oxford)
2) Benjamin Pwee (ex-admin service officer, from Cambridge)
3) Jimmy Lee (DSTA scholar, from ???)
4) Kenneth Jeyaretnam (hedge fund manager, from Cambridge)
5) Vincent Wijeysingha (PhD holder, from ???)
6) Tony Tan (ex-SAF scholar)
7) Hazel Poa (ex-admin service)
8) Tan Jee Say (ex-admin service)

Whereas PAP has given us

1) Tin Pei Ling
2) Janil Puthucheary
3) Foo Mee Har
4) Ong Ah Heng's son and Choo Wee Khiang's nephew
5) SAF generals
6) 7-8 candidates from NTUC

HOW COME THIS YEAR OPPO CANDIDATES LOOK BETTER THAN PAP??

Dr Chen strongest

Why do you refer to Chen Show Mao as "Dr" Chen?

He is not a medical doctor nor is he a holder of a PhD.

To my knowledge, the only opposition candidates who qualified to have title "Dr" in front of their names is Dr Vincent Wijeysingha and Dr Chee Soon Juan.

PAP side got more Drs, such as Dr Vivian Balakrishnan. There are some with even higher titles, such as Assoc Prof Yaacob Ibrahim.

Yakult Iblamerain is only a paper pusher.

Qualification meant nothing.

Chen Show Mao has a JD from Stanford Law School ie a doctoral degree in law from Stanford University.

So, he can be addressed as Dr Chen.

Please see the url link http://ge2011.theonlinecitizen.com/2011/04/this-is-my-home-wps-chen-show-mao/ for his education.

Hmm, that is very strange. In that case, why don't he refer to himself as Dr Chen? Why don't the Straits Times or TOC / Satay Club / Temasek Review etc refer to him as Dr Chen?

Whereas Dr Vincent Wijeysingha, Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, Dr Chee Soon Juan are all referred to using their full academic title?

Anyone care to explain?

Also, is JD the same level as PhD?

some times when an editor doesn't like somebody... he/she will purposely omit the salutation.

Rock^Star SG

Chen Show Mao advised Bank of China on the world's biggest IPO deal. You all think any of our ministers have the capability to do that?

So what?

Our ministers can convince all Singaporeans that increasing GST is to help the poor or that HDB flats are affordable.

Can he do something like that ?

No matter how strong opposition party candiates are, they will still lost because the opposition brand lose to PAP brand..

Hitman Submarine SG

taking away admin officer positions for oppositions this would only lead to around 2 acceptable ones.the rest are just not cut out for making important decisions resulting in victory.

for pap, taking all the barnacles around candidates ones left are only the SAF generals.and even the generals have not seen much action or real wars to have that title even.
