SALUTE TO WP, CHIAM & BRAVEST OF SINGAPOREANS
Unfortunately it proven once more that courage is a virtue possessed only be a minority. 40% of Singaporeans see the crisis facing our country and stepped out of their comfort zones to vote for change. But alas, the rests prefer lives as daft lesser mortals serving the deaf and arrogant. 


Congratulations to the Workers' Party for a hard and well-fought campaign. On the foundation of credibility and rationality, the party's leadership recruited a collection of fine young talents and molded them into a strong fighting team. They not only clinched a stunning victory in Aljunied GRC (taking 3 ministers in the process), but won at least 40% votes in all the wards they contested. Seeing the response of Singaporeans to the WP's rallies and victory in elections, this is a group that reminds us of the first generation PAP that had likewise captured the hearts of the ordinary people.


The loss of Mr Chiam See Tong in the Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC marks the end of an era in Singapore's democracy and history. His spirit proved willing despite his frail body - a true role model for Singaporeans, and indeed anyone. Nonetheless there are limitations to the personality-based approach in Singapore politics, and his valiant efforts ended up short even against Wong Kan Seng. The challenge to all political parties hereafter is to emulate the systematic and progressive approach of the WP, to ensure the grooming of purposeful teams and not just rely on the charisma and reputation of individuals. 


To all Singaporeans who dared to say "NO" to oppression and threats, to the Workers' Party who is willing to take the slow and humble path to power, and to Mr Chiam who has inspired us all, we salute you!

Who Do You Want To Be 
Jobless Millionaire

We initially wanted to name this game “Who You Don’t Want To Be A Millionaire”. But we were quickly prompted to the fact that our Cabinet Ministers are already multi-millionaires, thanks to the astronomical pay-cheques and bonuses they have been paying themselves from our tax monies. We are reminded on the regular basis that our Ministers are sooo…. talented, they will have no trouble making larger riches elsewhere. So we decided, maybe Singaporeans do want to put this claim to test …

Who Do You Want To Be A Jobless Millionaire” is the game for us to VOTE OUT

Game Success shows Singaporeans mean serious business in GE!


Lee Hsien Loong told us not to treat the GE like playing a game

We have a message for him – Singaporeans mean serious business in this GE! This is seen in Singaporeans' enthusiasm with our game to identify The Weakest Link in every GRC contested by the PAP. And the numbers don't lie.

The PAP Candidates 
You Do Not Want!


The People’s Action Party – the PAP, had been a pillar supporting the building of the nation we call Singapore. The first generation lions like Goh Keng Swee, S Rajaratnam, Toh Chin Chye and Lim Kim San amongst many others, often stood boldly and in self-sacrifice in the frontline to face all kinds of adversities. They led Singaporeans’ battle against colonialism, communism, Konfrontasi, communal violence, poverty and all other threats, with the single aim of ensuring our countrymen having a safe place to call home.

Yet today the endeavors and sacrifices of these pioneers are being unraveled by a group of people. They pretend to be heirs of the PAP legacy, treading in the same footsteps of our heroes, but are in truth mere imitators who are not even worthy to lace the shoes of those before them. For the past 20 years the PAP’s credibility and strength as an institution all Singaporeans have learnt to trust, has been quietly and steadily undone

If there’s a competition for the most “endangered” Minister, National Development Minister Mah Bow Tan will definitely be in a neck-to-neck race with Wong Kan Seng to win it.
