spreading rumours and inciting anger and insecurity
Chua Chin Hon's article in the ST starts like this:
The WP has offered no concrete plans ofr Singapore's future, and has instead been spreading rumours about the rising cost of living, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said yesterday.
He also criticised the opposition for dwelling on lift upgrading and means testing for hospital stays, with the aim to 'incite' feelings of insecurity and anger among Singaporeans so they would vote for their candidates.'
Did Hsien Loong really said these? If people complain or talk about rising cost of living are guilty of spreading rumours, I think all of us are equally guilty. If people question or raise issues about upgrading and means testing, they are inciting feelings of insecurity and anger, I think we all better stop talking about them.
Don't want to be accused of spreading rumours and inciting the people. This is dangerous stuff.

Don't despair that the opposition in other GRCs may not win. I believe every vote counts. Even if the opposition doesn't win in a GRC, they can still be given a ringing endorsement by the percentage of votes they win, so every single voter must still cast his vote properly because every vote still counts.
