From the
responses and comments in TRE, Paul Tambyah is most welcomed and has brought
along with him a lot of goodwill and promises for SDP. Just to be able to
attract such a strong candidate to the party speaks a lot about the potential
of SDP. For professionals like Paul Tambyah and his likes, they would be big
catches even for the PAP and would be touted as ministerial material. For him
to pick a controversial party like SDP and Chee Soon Juan as comrades in arms
must not be an easy decision and many things must have gone through his mind to
make this bold move. Paul Tambyah and other professionals joining the SDP is a
sign that SDP is not a whimsical and notorious party but a credible and
respectable one. They must have seen goodness in the party to move out of their
comfort zone to endorse SDP and Chee Soon Juan. The thinking are thinking and
showing the light to the unthinking.
As the GE
draws closer, if SDP is able to unveil more professionals and credible
candidates, and so would be the expectations for other parties like the WP and
SingFirst, the opposition camp will be very much strengthened and be seen as a
formidable force to reckon with. If each of these parties could parade a few
big guns, you can imagine what a coalition govt would look like and place their
faces in the shadow cabinet.
The voters
would love more of such surprises from the opposition camp especially SDP and
WP and other more substantive parties. The voters would now not only think of
Chee Soon Juan as SDP. There is Paul Tambyah, and hopefully a few more in the
next few weeks to come.
The good men
and women are standing up and coming forward to be counted. It is about time.

Professor Paul Tambyah?
Please lah, if Prof Paul wear the PAP badge, then I say, no problem, he will win for sure.
But SDP? Then I can tell u he will have a 93% chance of losing in the coming GE.
I mean, if even Presidential material Hainan Ah Ko under SDP can lose in GE 2011, and got only less than 40% votes some more, what makes u think Prof Paul can win, u tell me lah?
I think Professor Paul Tambyah is not really smart by joining SDP. He should have at least join the WP to better his chances of winning, although best is still to join the PAP.
Look at it this way, if even PAP Ting Pei Ling can win, why not Professor Paul Tambyah, or even SMRT CEO Desmond Kuek, assuming he were to stand for election, u tell me lah?
If you are looking for a good man, hard to find one with a pure heart, this is the man.
If you are looking for people with pure hearts, go to the PAP. They have immortals oso.
Who can say his heart is pure?
I know who.

WP chenna cheena, after JBJ no more
SDP more eng kok
Many letters of policy wisdom that even PAP ministers unable to Churn up less WP
The bad image of DAP is created by Propaganda.
Many Sinkies believe just like they believe
that GST is to help the poor.
I have never have doubts on CSJ. He has the
stamina to be cowed by his opponents both
inside and outside of the establishment.
Chee Soon Juan and Paul Tambyah would put up a good fight if they could pull in a couple more good men or women to join them, and would likely win. Notice I never say pure hearts but good men or women.
Go for Bukit Timah/Buona Vista and give Vivian the shivers.
Chee Soon Juan and Paul Tambyah would put up a good fight if they could pull in a couple more good men or women to join them, and would likely win.

Not really lah. If they win and PAP is accidentally voted out of govt, then how?
Can Chee Soon Juan, Paul Tambyah, Hainan Ah Ko and Teochew Ah Hia work together in the same cabinet after winning when they are not even seen talking to each other before the election? And not to say Hainan Ah Ko had even left Chee Soon Juan's SDP some more?
U see, opposition being like that hor, the 60% will be very scared to accidentally vote PAP out in a GE, u know? Maybe better chance in BE for Chee Soon Juan and Paul Tambyah but then WP Ah Hia will also not give chance, like in the Punggol East BE.
Do you need a rocket scientist to run this island? A top scholar or someone with a pure heart or a born noble?
I think any decently intelligent person with a good heart in the right place would be good enough to run this island with the full support of the civil servants. We have the best men and women in the civil service and all they need is a good leader with a good heart to lead them. Someone who would spend money prudently and on Singaporeans. And not to sell out the country.
Be very wary of a too clever man with a bad heart. Not sure about pure heart.
So far this is the best man to appear in this GE. None of the PAP hopefuls is near him.
