EXACTLY. If this fella is punished, it
is not because he has committed any crime (absent minded is not a
crime) but because he is so dumb as to let the Ruling Party has an
excuse to find fault with him during elections time.
I'm not exactly his supporter but I
can assure you he is not dumb. What I figure is that he had wanted
to screw the ELD but he made an error. Pls refer
below.
He was accused of lying to the Government, the Nation and hence all
the citizens including you and me (if you are also a Singaporean).
This is the best ammunition for any party during elections time to
whack its rival, is it not ??? Out of curiosity, let me ask one
simple question - why did he need to do what he had done on that
fateful day, KNOWING FULL WELL that there was a camera recording ?

My take on what happened: He had
wanted to screw ELD. So in front of the CNA camera, he was seen
filling the form. After when Slyvia and the CNA camera were gone,
he kept the form in his bag. He wasn't aware that there was an
inconspicuos CCTV up there filming at the same time.
So when he went back to ELD to "collect" the minority cert and then
was told that he didn't submit any form, he asked the staff to
check again, as there was footage. (Referring to the CNA
camera)
When he was subsequently told of the CCTV recording, he did not
give any protest at all as he knew his trick had
backfired.
If the CCTV had not been there, he would have succee
