(3) TCB and PSP party must be able to tell Singaporeans - how different will he and his PSP party be - from PAP - that make him stand out the better party to lead Singapore into the future.

(4) What are the policies that will make this happen. And TCB and his PSP party - must not plagarise what PAP has done or in the progress or in the plan but has yet to carried out.

(5) Let see whether TCB and his PSP party - has the LKY quality to "wow" the Singapore voters - or is another fly-by-night opportunist political party.

(6) Nothing was mention in TCB statement - how he will lead Singapore to better economically, improve the standard of living of Singapore, bolster investment, business, create jobs etc that Singaporeans livelihood depends on ----- and TCB just "follow what the WP did in last election" --- to check PAP, ensure accountability, ensure transparency.

(7) A question for TCB and his PSP party - accountability, transparency - can eat or not, can fill the stomach or not, can make money and improve the lives of Singaporeans or not?

(1) TCB and his PSP party say creating job is his "top priority".

But after reading through the whole article - cannot see any "wow factors" that can do better than PAP - how TCB and his PSP party can create more and good jobs for Singaporeans.

(2) Does TCB and PSP party know about the breadth and depth of how PAP machinery - are creating business and jobs for Singaporeans?

(3) What is describe here is not even close to 1% of what the PAP has done to create jobs for Singaporeans --- except "inspiring words" - but no content, no substance.

Now try this. See whether TCB and his PSP party got solutions and policies to some of these fundamental problems :-

Danny Lum
Eg :-
(1) How TCB help all traditional industries transform to embrace Digital Economy - eg. digital analystics, AI, NLP, robotics, mobile apps, web apps etc and open up a new sector of the Economy for each industries (TCB is a doctor - does he even understand all these terminologies and understand its significance - or whether his PSP parteis have such knowledge to lead Singapore?_

(2) Does TCB and his PSP party know how and understand how to apply and adjust Monetary Policy and Fiscal Policy - to tackle the slowdown of our Economy to ensure soft-landing, keep business afloat and grow and keep jobs?
Does TCB and his PSP party understand the economic principles, national finances to formulate good economic and financial policies to sustain Singapore Economy?

(3) Singapore is facing tremendous pressure to maintain our port hub status - with advent of new trade route eg. Arctic route (that will totally bypass our port), land route (silk route) etc.
How does TCB and his PSP party consolidate and ensure Singapore port hub is not threatened?

PAP's strategy is using "virtual port" --- does TCB and his PSP party even understand what is it - to ensure Singapore port hub and our livelihood are safeguarded?

(4) Singapore is one of the world financial hub - but now under threat from "virtual banking", "technology companies disruptive tech - cryptocurrency - that will threaten our Monetary Policy".

How does TCB and PSP party counter this threat and maintain Singapore as our financial hub?

(5) Singapore is facing a falling birth rate - and this will compromise our future National Security - as there will be lesser Singaporeans to be enlisted in NS to protect our Country.

How will TCB and his PSP party solve the manpower issue - by ensuring we have a strong army even though with lesser manpower.

PAP has solution. What about TCB and PSP?

(6) How does TCB and his PSP make use of 5G to make Singapore a competitve country, bolster our vision of Smart Nation and transform all our industries with a 2nd wing of Digital Economy?

Does TCB and his PSP party know enough of tech comm and IT - to understand and exploit it to improve Singapore standard of living.

(7) Trump's trade war against China and many Countries have threatened and will derail the Global Supply Chain.
Singapore is a very integral part of this Global Supply Chain and our trade make up of 3 times of our whole GDP.

How does TCB and his PSP party - ensure that Singapore will not be derail from the Global Supply Chain - and can re-configure ourselves to plug into the Global Supply Chain as we re-adjust?

PAP can. Can TCB and PSP party can?

(8) I can go on to write more and more - as there are so many challenges and opportunities that we can tap on ---- but does TCB and his PSP party up to mark and up to standard to tackle them?

Seriously you think TCB and his PSP party can do a LKY?
If he can't do it for his last 26 years as PAP MP --- at 79 years ago --- i don't think he can.

Anyone who has reasonable wisdom think he can?

(1) In summary, TCB and PSP party 1st party launch and what he want to do for Singaporeans ---- is a "Big Disappointment".

(a) It did not "Wow" the Singaporean voters --- like another LKY coming into the political scene.

(b) And its statement about creating job ---- "pale in comparison" with what the whole PAP machinery is doing in job creation, business creation through many FTAs etc.

(c) As if plagarising WP's line of "checking accountability and transparency" is not good enough.

Now plagarise PAP's agenda of "job creation".

Now plagarise Malaysia PKR of "getting 18 years old to vote".

What else TCB and his PSP party got originality --- and not copying and plagarising other parties?

(2) And SDP GE launch statement --- is "lagi disappointed" - plagarise Malaysia PKR of abolishing GST (then follow by implementing SST tax) and other populist policies - make health cheap, make everything cheap, no need tax collection ---- win then 才来讲。


Can promise anything under the sun - just to please voters --- no need to honor later.

“Must not plagiarized what PAP has done”. My question is what has PAP done in recent years that benefited Singapore other than themselves. PSP need not spell out and repeating the obvious given the limited time. The most important points is to aim for accountability and transparency, as this two vital issues has become very murky under PAP. On the contrary, it is PAP that plagiarized other people’s ideas as theirs. TCB is right to hold his cards close.

Masa Soh Mengming - if you look at what TCB and his PSP party propose here about job - they are simply picking bit and pieces of what PAP is currently doing and more programme on the pipeline to create jobs.

Just look at what PAP are doing now - and compare what TCB and his PSP party say --- and assess it yourself.

You bet on PAP or PSP? :-

Danny Lum
(1) Actually TCB and his PSP party proposal on job creation is a pale comparison to PAP job machinery in job creation.

(2) PAP has created the WSG who has attracted companies to join the Skillfuture programme to create jobs. Among them are :-
- Train and placement programme.
- Job trial and Internship programme - and if successful a permanent job.
- Job conversion programme. (eg. PCP - Professional Conversion Programme).
- Job matching between skillsets and Job - through WDP job portal.
- Career Coach - to help job seekers and Organisations to match jobs
- Skillfuture to train in new jobs and placement

etc etc.

(3) There are so many programmes under WSG, e2i, NTUC etc - to help workers to get jobs.

(4) TCB and PSP party a few statement - only "talk" but can do or not? No body knows.

Christopher Bong -
(1) Accountability and transparency? Isn't TCB and PSP party copy what WP say about co-driver and checking PAP --- but end up mismanaging the GRC with $33 million loss.

(2) If TCB has 料 - there is no need to keep his card close to his heart - because he can defend his policies and upend the ruling Government policies.

Mr LKY never keep his card close to his heart - and he share his vision under PAP - the 1st day he step into politicis.

(3) TCB does not have the quality - 没料 means 没料 .

(4) a. He copy WP's previous election campaign - on Co-driver "accountability and transparency".

b. He copy PAP's job creation agenda for Singaporeans - and did not come up with good ideas versus what PAP are doing and future pipeline.

c. He copy Malaysian PKR 18 years old minor voting right - where minor with 18 years old are not fully developed in mental state to decide on the fate of the Country.

(5) This show that TCB and PSP party do not have the policy making skills - and Singapore will be doom if he run the Country.

(6) What did PAP do that does not benefit the people?
Majority of Singaporeans income and standard of living has improved - and Singapore per capita income is the 3rd highest in the World.

Why blame PAP when you and a few of them did not exploit the opportunities and do well?

The proposal that "There’s no point collecting certificates when there’s no job" and the solution is "for workers to be recruited first, then go for retraining and be retooled for the new job" just goes to show the ideal world these people are living in. They think businesses are run as charity.
I hope that Dr Tan's dream of "unifying alternative" for Singapore won't turn into disuniting the people.

(1) Also TCB and PSP party - have evidently forgotten that - the Government must be able to attract business investment, trade, business etc - in order to create jobs.

(2) Nothing was mention in TCB and PSP party statement --- under the extremely challenging geopolitical stress from trade war, global supply chain disruption, geopolitical tension etc --- how does TCB and his PSP party help to bring more business investment, ride out the challenges and create jobs.

(3) So it is all just talk but no substance.

(4) Does Singaporean voters really believe TCB and his PSP party can create jobs for Singaporeans and keep the Economy afloat as well as PAP does?

I seriously doubt so.

TCB and PSP party - did not even talk about the Global challenges - that hit our business environment, trade and job ---- just talk about job matching blah blah --- that is not solving the root cause.

But they are not old enough and still need a guardian. So in your words by 18 they can do everything an adult can do. Then for education parents also no need to pay for them since adult already and no law can punish the parents for that. Also if they commit crime, they can be sentenced to equal terms like an adult just because they are responsible enough and no appeal can be made that they are still not mature. Alot of other loop holes. But as usual people just put alot of suggestions without considering the consequences.

(1) You are absolutely right.

(2) In Singapore and under the common law - 18 years old is a minor - and need Parents and Guardians as guarantor.

(3) TCB and his PSP party - by copying and plagarising PKR - is breaking the law --- if I am not wrong from legal standpoint - and I stand to be corrected.

(4) Minor of 18 years old - cannot sign anything that is legally binding - need their parents or guidance to sign.


(5) Since 18 years minor cannot sign contractual document, they also cannot vote - from legal standpoint.

I also scratching my head when I read this and thought is fake news. How can TCB psp come out such idea, a disgrace to his PAP. A lot of 18 years boys still playing computer game not maturity yet and want them to vote and decide of politics fate? More of devoid of ideas and just copy blind other countries or simply hope for fluke results by having minors to vote. I think this is not idea of TCB himself but his low calibre members but at least do some vetting on what they want to say mah, TCB.

(1) TCB has been an MPs for 26 years.

(2) Ignorance of the common law is fatal as politician.

(3) This show that TCB is not of Minister quality - and can make such a mistake.

(4) And a few public statement by him and his PSP party show that he is only copying - but no original idea.

Eg. He copy WP "accountability and transparency" - co-driver to check PAP.
He copy PAP "job creation idea".
Now he copy Malaysia PKR "18 years minor voting idea".

(5) It clearly show that he display no flair in policy making - only know how to plagarise.

Majority of the Countries in the World defined a "Minor" as 18 years old and below.
Some Countries defined "Minor" as 20 years old and below.

You, TCB and PSP party - want to change the Constitution to make 18 years old "not a minor" and hand the fate of the Country to a Minor?
