Cheng Bock and 40 ex PAP MPs to stand for WP
This came from Tan Kin Lian’s post in he TRE titled ‘Nice to hear cabby said PAP to lose 4 GRCs’. And Kin Lian added this, ‘His taxi driver friends had privileged information that Dr TCB and 40 ex PAP leaders will contest under the Workers Party banner. Wow! He made the statements in a most convincing manner. He believed in the reliability of his source. His friends had attended meetings where these matters were discussed.’
OK, don’t get over excited by this piece of news. I know it is very sexy. Kin Lian also commented that it is likely to be a rumour. So it is unlikely to be true. But there is a likelihood that it was true because he did not said it is definitely a rumour but likely to be a rumour.
How true could this be? In the days when the Oracle is still around this is a definite NO. Who would dare to go against the Oracle and stare him in his face. So, now that he is gone, the possibility cannot be totally ruled out. And there are good reasons for this to be a possibility.
Remember, the PAP started very well with many pro people policies that warned the support of the people. Those days it was called winning the hearts and minds of the masses. And they did. And the ex PAP members were the ones that did that. These people have the right thinking and have their hearts in the right place. They are different. If not they would not be able to win the support of the people for so long. If not Singapore would not be what it is today.
If there are 40 ex PAP MPs willing to stand with the WP, the game is over. There is no where the young newbies could stand a chance against the seasoned oldies that did it, who had done that, whose great works should be rightly accredited to them, not to the newbies who have done what? All the gloating of the PAP were the achievements of the past by the ex PAP MPs and pioneer leaders.
So, if this is true, I also find it difficult to believe, yes, it will be game over. But I also agree with Kin Lian that even if it is not true, it is nice to hear about it. It is a pleasant dream even in broad daylight.
Maybe the opposition parties should take the cue and work on these ex PAP MPs, the good men and women of yore.

This has always been in the mind of Sinlies long before the passing of the Oracle. Now that he is not around, there is a high probability that this will happen.
Don't forget, the ex-PAP, some of whom, like Cheng Bock, are probably held hostage by the long service benefits dished out by the PAP if they serve the PAP for a number of years. I do hope that I am not mistaken. Will they forsake their lucrative benefits to stand for the WP? Hard to swallow, but this piece of news left a nice taste in the mouth.

Not true lah.
LKY say many times already, PAP is a meritocracy.
So the ex PAP MPs must have been replaced because LKY found the young newbies to be of better merit tio bo?
So if the young PAP newbies are of better merit ... for sure they can defeat all these ex PAP MPs.
40 or 400 no difference lah.
They have been replaced because they did not pass LKY's standard.
LHL pass LKY's standard of meritocracy.
That is why LHL is PAP's Prime Minister.

You mad ah?
Enjoy retirement and all the benefits or stand for WP to serve Singaporeans?
Serve Singaporeans?
The very same daft idiots who keep voting PAP year after year, election after elections.
You must be mad.
Coming from Kin Lian who lost his election deposit in PE 2011, u cannot take this too seriously lah, unless it is about insurance and financial planning matters.
And if "Cheng Bock and 40 ex PAP MPs to stand for WP" can really happen, Kin Lian would had also won PE 2011 and become our President now. And RB would also had contested GE 2011 and become a opposition MP now, and not a remisier and anti PAP blogger.
So take anything political from Kin Lian or even RB, with a table spoon of salt.
Anno 12:46. It is Hope that keeps people alive.
Exaggerated also must gave class la, talk like farting. 40 boh! Even if Goh K S, Lim K S, Toh C C, Rajaratnam, defeated/outclassed G Yeo and Co all join in also no more than 20 la. Somemore a few years later all become senile. Who want to vote for them.
They better drink kopi with Tan Kin Lian at kopitiam la, .
Haha
Including those dead and buried also cannot find 40? Boh haosio boh kong!
I think the ruling party will destroy and real contenders before the election if this is true.
This is definitely the SG50 greatest joke!
See? How to be leader when one cannot keep sensitive secret and reveal such hearsay.
Tan how lian ended up gong gong putting others on alert or cause false alarm.Got 40? Maybe get that See Ah Muay who wash hand immediately after handshake or Miko who slept with Lora.
What we need is integrity , quality and not quantity.
Talk oso must have brain else how to make me vote with confidence.
If true, the dogs will be digging furiously in the backyard for buried bones, real or imaginery. Lots of skeletons will also come out from cupboards as well, and 'toa kias' will be given incentives to come forward with juicy tales to stick on to the class of unpredecented 40.
SG50? Things do happen once in 50 years leh.
Talk oso must have brain else how to make me vote with confidence.

LEE HSIEN LOONG: SINGAPORE NOT READY FOR SAME SEX MARRIAGE
Low Thia Khiang: WP not ready to be government
Really matilah Singapore. Everything also not ready.
Singaporeans - Not ready to vote out PAP.
Poor Amos. Sacrifice himself for the Sillyporeans. Die for nothing. What a waste.
Even the 40 ex pap mps were to stand for elections against their own ex party, will also not vote for them.
if all long, they do not do anything as parliamentarians in the past to do what they supposed to do to serve the people whether ad ruling or opposition mps, think they do now if elected????

Aiyah! You are too harsh lah.
Maybe the 40 ex PAP MPs were scared of L*Y mah.
So maybe everyday they kee chiu to everything L*Y say lor.
Just like you and all the other Singaporeans mah.
When L*Y speaks, every Sillyporean listens, kee chiu and votes PAP lor.
I think it is not 40 ex-PAP Members but Faulty axed-PAP Members, they could be anyone from the lowest rank (ordinary members like me and my friends) to the highest CEC level. If this is the case, then you can even get 400 axed-members.
I also think they could be intentionally field in by the PAP to infiltrate into
the WP camp and take over WP, and then destroy WP, just like what has happened
to the SDP.
If indeed "Cheng Bock and 40 ex PAP MPs to stand for WP" in coming GE, then of course there is more to it than meets the eye.
If not, such things would have already happened in GE 2011 when daft, suffering, money no enough Sinkies then were in as bad a situation, if not worse, than now.
If it did not happen in 2011, it will never happen.
If RB is not an opposition MP by now, he will never. Tio bo, RB?
No wonder the Sinkie opposition is still not ready to be govt even by now, as was in 2011.
Now even lagi not ready, with "Madcow" Goh Meng Seng with his latest "Playing Party Pooper". And he may not be the last, more to come. Stay tuned.
40 ex-PAP MPs.
If they are of any calibre and pride would form their own political party tio bo?

Tiok. And also the leader will announce that their party will, just like the PAP, contest 100% seats as one party in next GE.
If not, they will not even want to join oppositon politics, much less to form another party.
Only those "more to it than meets the eye" type like Madcow Goh or even Hainan Ah Ko will form new parties without announcing their party will contest 100% seats and ready to be govt.
Haha
Maybe, this is just like the con about having NCMPs in Parliament, to fool people that there is no need for opposition.
Now, if let's say, the 40 form another party, contest the GE and some get into Parliament. Who is to say that this is not another trick and that the 40 are still basically, as they say, 'ka ki nan', PAP by another name smells just the same.
Maybe the only good pig is a dead pig.
