Singapore – On March 28 (Thursday), former PAP turned opposition Brad
Bowyer announced his resignation from the People’s Voice (PV)
opposition party.
Through a post in his Facebook account, Bowyer said that as of March
24 (Sunday), he no longer has any direct association with Lim Tean’s
opposition party.
The reasons for his separation remain unclear, although he did mention personal health issues....
While there is still no word from Lim Tean regarding Bowyer’s
decision, netizens are already giving their suggestions for Bowyer’s
next steps.
Hass Kamsun suggested joining the Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) and hinted that Bowyer would fit in nicely.
Above is reported in theindependent.sg
How many more opposition candidates would resign from their parties suddenly like being struck by lightning and claimed health reasons and wanting to start on a new journey? The clearest sign of lightning struck is this comment in theindependent.sg, 'Khong Marcus and Jack Ng suggested going independent although Bowyer replied that his path is still unclear'. Lightning struck victims often appeared blur or lost.
Would there be more akan datang?
I think Bad Bowyer should join the PAP, safer and better future. Guaranteed would not be struck by lightning. And if he is thinking of getting into parliament, no need to look elsewhere.
What do you think?

He showed that he has turned tail. An indication of cowardice. Luckily he left. Otherwise People's Voice will be harbouring a coward who may sell out the party when intimidated by unseen forces behind the scene.
Good riddance!
Good morning rb.. people who join the fledgling parties want to shape the parties..make sense of their being n belief..people who join PAP want to be shaped by its beliefs/ policy/ rhetoric.. a lot of difference.. u want money or principles...))))
Yah, God has riddance him out.
People who join opposition parties are fighting for a cause and self-motivated. Taking great risks too.
People who join PAP are fighting for money, status and position. They are not self-motivated but need to be "invited" (coerced) to tea party and glorified, praised snd sweet-talked into joining, plus have to promise them millionaires' salary and bonuses. They don't need to take risks. Can go in through backdoor on s piggy-back.
The Age of Decadence has begun. The downfall is just a matter of time.
Unle rb......Yes! You are 1oo% correct!
If he joins back pap, at least he will not be invited to lim kopi suddenly!
Hahaha........
not that I want to pour cold water
no point talking about the opposition parties, waste time!
such a tiny city state.....so many many many opposition parties
politicians.....in in out out.....very very very "complicated"!
where are they now? how to vote, you tell me lah!
vote with eyes closed?
now you know why the 70%!
cheers
People just need to respect and give one another the benefit of doubt for whatever decision each individually made, and the realization of its impacts might take time.
The Pionner batches of Leaders are more or less equal in capabilities and ranks.
That's where you have GKS,HSS,LKS im their Ministerial Roles made Independent Decisions and Policies. The PM will in a way listened and gave leeway to equal or more than equal intelligence.
Nowadays. PAP MPs and candidates are been selected and called for tea or interviews. Just like salary men and women in given jobs.
You think they dared turn against any stupid decisions made by the PM.
Just toe the line and pay correct Sir.
So if that Imbecile PM made wrong policies that the whole population suffered.
So. Must have diverse views to challenge the Idiot Man Decision Maker.
Anyway, I felt that this guy joined just for the sake of making the numbers just to show Sinkieland's what's multi racial mix. Knew he not sincere enough.
Cheers

RB
Hahaha.
It is because of such Sinkies like Bad Bowyer (new Sinkie? Or is he a Sinkie?) or even Lim Tean that's why the Sinkie opposition is not ready to be govt.
PAP must be laughing in their toes.
And if I were LHL, I will tell Bad Bowyer to FXXX OXX even if he wants to join PAP.
Talking about Lim Tean see below:

Kena sued then pay and nearly went bankrupt. Is this type MP material?

Could this be one reason why Brad Bowyer left Lim Tean's Party?
If I were Brad Bowyer, I would have done the same too. Of course I will use other excuse lah, like health reasons. LOL
Lim Tean can speak very well but looked at what happened in
https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/opposition-politician-lim-tean-avoids-bankruptcy-over-200k-loan
I think PAP may use this to whack Lim Tean if he were to contest next election.

I remember a female PAP candidate whose husband had a bankruptcy suit filed against him was even publicised as an embarrassing issue for her in one of the election.
So what more if it involve the candidate himself/herself. Sure no give chance one what.
>> Brad Bowyer should join the PAP, safer and better future.<<
Yes. Good play. Or the alternative: maintain his “individual status’, forget all this party bullshit, and run as an independent.
However, BB indicated that Parliament is not that important to him.
IMO, he's one really hard working politician. He has a podcast, actually goes out there and meets with people, is prolific on social media, criticises using facts and data, does not attack people personally, and actually makes sense. These are attributes which make him likeable.
But the man is unwell. Singapore is like that --- you can burn out even at a relatively young (middle) age.

@Virgo,
///That's where you have GKS,HSS,LKS im their Ministerial Roles made Independent Decisions and Policies. The PM will in a way listened and gave leeway to equal or more than equal intelligence.///
LKY only listened to them in the 1960s-1970s when S'pore still shaky & he needed their support to convince the citizens.
By the 1980s, S'pore already stabilised and Sinkies all kena castrated liao. LKY had absolute control of ISD, CID, CPIB, CNB, CPF, SAF, DBS, CPF, state reserves and no rebellious ministers or MPs have the balls, guns or $$$$ to overthrow him.
In the early-1980s, you see & read LKY starting to publicly disagree with the other Old Guards. By 1990, he forced all the Old Guards out and surrounded himself with cronies & SAF generals. In the 1990s - 2010s all the Old Guards either died early deaths or faded into obscurity.
Actually if yew were there in HLP on 26 Jan 2019 and 16 Mar 2019 and watch the various speakers on stage including BB, his body language just wasn't right at all?
At that point, intuitively can't see him sustaining in that role in the lo(ooooo)ng term
Nonetheless his (sudden) resignation is (much) faster than expected
In the 1980 Fullerton Election rally, PM1 spoke (with his fists gesturing and pumping in the air): "Who ever govern this place must have the iron in him (spoken with tightly gritted teeth and mean, cold, intimidating eyes), or give it up" (with raised sharp tone on the last three words and a swift brushing not uncertain gesture of his right arm).
Whether in health or otherwise, yew want jump into politics, everything should be weighed carefully?
As mentioned many times, in a 1957 Legislative Assembly debate, the PM1 already said this is an absurdity. So what for become (an opposition) member?
If (want to) join, like this opportunistic mercenary self-centred selfish MS, also join the side who holds the power and pay him fat IB cheques lah?
Join opposition in the end achieve nothing for the people but ownself kena jiaklat jiaklat?
Look at RN?
What happened to him?
What for become speakers on stage?
Just be spectators can liao?
Or kpkb online such as in MSN?
Mr Redbean Chua also very law abiding? If any comment or post cross the line, he also won't allow?
Other than that, sinkieland very boring le?
Some kpkb comments at times can make some people very angry or tulan but basically no "fundamental or any serious/ major harm" done (maciam mozzies flying around irritating but no need bring out the "bazooka or sledge hammer or press the nuclear button"). Show outsiders the G not as oppressive as made out to be by foreign media and allow "plenty" of online "verbal dissent"?
"Mozzies" irritating but basically they serve some purpose also?
And no need pay them some more not like some greedy leeching IB such as one botak beach bum (who negotiated and demanded huge IB fees) ?
Unwell means sick. A sick man cannot make the Opposition healthy. His sixkness may affect his decision. What is his sickness? Sick of Singaporeans? So he wants to "balek kampong" (return to hometown)???
Somebolee sent secret squirrels in the middle of night to his house to threaten him?

If you join a "big group", that is not IMO selfish --- ie being "laser-focused" on your self interest, and going your way and ONLY your way, is being truly selfish.
Selfish people don't "expose" themselves to being influenced or controlled by the "code" of others. Actually, they take pains to AVOID such situations.
P.S. Bring truly selfish is acting in your own long term interests. If you try and "compromise" using some short-term, insincere tactic, you will self-sabotage your long term interest. Also, it is to your long-term interest to always be authentic and genuine with your relationships. If you bullshit the PAP and join them just "to be rich", they will eventually catch on that you are a faker and deal with you accordingly.
People go to church and "fake" it. All of them eventually get caught out as hypocrites, because humans have an in-built mechanism to spot fakers, which --- although easily fooled occasionally --- works damn well most of the time.
It is much better to be authentic and genuine from the beginning to let people know you ALWAYS place you self-interest FIRST, above anything and everything else. Then there is no ambiguity, illusion, and deception from Day #1.
@ fans of the NLB
THIS GEM OF A BOOK is in the rare books / reserve collection of our great NLB. It is short, you can read it in one sitting. Highly recommended. It is OLD. Written in 1933.
Hello Anon 11.22
What I meant is that the Old Guards at least have their own minds and capabilities to implement whatsoever policies that they dared to do so.
Nowadays, all these JLBs chosen Ones only parrot and followed the orders of the only One which he may be an idiot.
He probably mistook People's Voice as People's Action Party. Join wrongly must resign lah!
Anyway, many opposition party members have been playing musical chairs for ages. And they are still at it. And the PAP loves the way the opposition is developing in Red Dot.
@ Game theory
>> And the PAP loves the way the opposition is developing in Red Dot. <<
That's why, IMO, BB's smartest play is to be INDEPENDENT away from all the party-political backstabbing nonsense. This is also the riskiest play because as an independent you only have THE PUBIC as support. If you do something silly and lose their support, you're done --- it's over.
And the PAP loves the way the opposition is developing in Red Dot.

Hahahaha.
I hope the opposition leaders also know this, and why they are hopeless.
Or maybe they are in opposition just for the fun of it? Just like come here to TCSS for the fun of it? LOL

Hahahaha.

Part 1:
Tiok Lah?
Thats why when going inside the booth, must hold the nose (VERY VERY TIGHT, BRING ALO(OOOOO)NG CLOTHE PEGS (even) BETTER or (if possible) wear N95 mask)?
Contest of the least stinky?
69.9% did it?
Choose the least stinky?
So the 69.9% are actually smart?
Give them BIG mandate but still screwed up now sinkies know what type (or quality, if any) "representing" them?
To be cont'd .....
Part 2:
The situation is indeed hopeless (for opposition and sinkieland)?
Look at Aung Juan Soon Chee ...
2016 Mt Buttock BE which was for incumbent to lose so much so that it was dubbed CHEE('s) BY Election ended up it was NOT CHEE('s) BY Election after all (with the challenger NO WHERE near a victory losing by double digit margin which was unprecedented given the preceding Jan 2013 PE BE)?
In the Jan 2013 PE BE, WP noboLEE some more is a fat auntie Ah Lian without good look and lousy academic background going through N Level and PohlehLong route turned around a huge deficit and beat an illustrious practising senior medical consultant (who has since become a rising star in the ruling camp and up and coming SMOS seen to be likely promoted to full minister "very soon") ...
Seen in the backdrop that Aung Juan Soon Chee faced a minority candidate in a majority ward amidst a scandalous extra marital affair leading to Mt Buttock (Chee) By Election lost by a whopping double DIGIT?
How can that be?
Why Mt Buttock residents dun want vote for someone with a PhD and a (well) known somebody in sinkieland politics, somemore the party leader, not any Ah Ther Ah Kow, Ah Lian or Ah Huay?
Think?
Why?
After observing upclose in the past three years in their walk about discovered one HUGE flaw (that no sane resident would want elect such an MP to represent them)
This fella is unlikely to be "electable" in sinkieland (at least in this life time) unless the ruling party suffered a tumultuous debilitating crisis or internal revolt or national scandal (which is quite unlikely but not impossible)?
In short, under normal circumstances, he is a liability as far as "electability" is concerned?
So in sinkieland the stench is getting worst and despite the overwhelming mandate of 69.9%, the "wheels and sprockets are coming off the train" and it is "heading towards the cliff" ...?
What can sinkies do (to save themselves and their future generations if they have offspring)?
To be cont'd .....
Aiyo, even Myanmar's Aung Juan Soon Chee also boh bin nowadays, not to talk about the local version. Why do they lose face so badly? Because they have been tarred by the Whites, or in local terms the 'albino' treatment.
You know the whites are also tarring China and Russia now, also Venezuela and Kim. The world is like that now! Singapore is also like that! What can we do? Collateral damage inflicted by the 70%!
RIGGED?
When something appears illogical, going against conventional thinking, look for the answer from a different angle, direction, perspective. Don't keep flogging the dead horse. The more you flog the more you get yourself soiled by the stinking smell of the horse carcass.

HOW? ??
@All,
Build up sufficient Fuck Off financial & human capital. Surround urself with like minded friends.
10 yrs ago at the age of 45 I already Fucked Off my boss as I don't need a job to live comfortably.
Today, PAP can pass a law to confiscate all CPF, and declare all HDB to be zero, I also won't feel much. Coz these 2 things are just a very small amount of my networth. Most of my assets are also based overseas & out of PAP's jurisdiction.
Otherwise u r just sheep. Happy happy, they give u grass & cut ur fleece. Not happy, they slice ur throat and cook u for lamb chops n kambing soup.
Ahem.. .
Now having mutton bryani dinner. . .cheapest in sinkieland just $3.80 but quite big plate
The meat dunno came from which slaughtered sheep. Quite tasty though .Yum yum
Don't keep flogging the dead horse.
5:32 pm
Which dead horse? U mean Chee Soon Juan? Lim Tean?
They are still alive and kicking, right? In action some more.
So can keep flogging or not, u say lah.

6:57 pm
Where?
Already left liao. Yew need autograph, izzt?
7.49pm, u very kualan. Ask you a straight forward question u die die must make fun out of it. No, I don't want your autograph but I wanted to sodomize you😂 So u happy now
Part 3
To safeguard their future generations, the best approach sinkies can adopt is to wake up everyday and stay super positive? Not because the future is bright but rather that it is bleak and getting worst? Knowing that situation is bad yet trying one's best to overcome all the adversity?
The rest they have to decide for themselves le how to solve their problems?
Nonetheless, relying on the vague hope of the opposition reversing sinkieland's declining fortune may not be the best bet?
Good luck.
Cheers.
