PAP MP for Mountbatten SMC, Lim Biow Chuan, posted the following photo on his Facebook page, apparently on 18 April 2011.

Notice that the picture says: “23172 people like this”:

But if you click on his actual Facebook page, it has only 244 “likes” – even on 23 April 2011 – as can be seen in the screenshot below:

When commenters asked about this, Mr Lim said:

“No worries. We have 23172 voters in Mountbatten (last audited figure) and my team envision to achieve this target. It’s a creative feature which they added and we are working as a team to achieve that. Good to point this out so that i can explain here. :)”

民主党成功办选前集会 陈清木、林瑞莲录视频寄语

“信任,这是总理李显龙请大家做的:信任人民行动党。”新加坡民主党秘书长徐顺全揶揄,信任源于信守承诺,但如果不守承诺,那么信任就好比厕纸般,用过即弃。 民主党在上周六(19日)成功于芳林公园举办选前集会,吸引约两千人出席。 在集会上致词时,徐顺全在致词时批评行动党要求人民给予该党信任,但自身却未能信守承诺。例如在2015年大选时承诺要照顾年长者,然而越来越多年长者必须继续工作维生;至于消费税、水电费、停车费、学费等等百物价格调涨,加重人民负担。 “信任不是你说了什么,而是你做了什么”( Trust is not what you say but what you…

我国需备足医疗资源能力 目前不太可能完全阻断冠毒!

国家传染病中心主任梁玉心教授指出,直到冠状病毒的疫苗面世为止,人们都必须和冠毒共处,因为就现阶段是不太可能完全阻断病毒传播。 而在面对冠毒病例不灭反增的情况,我国务必要有足够的资源和能力、专业且充足的医疗设施和体系。 梁玉心教授出席昨日(5月14日)在一项网络研讨会,在谈及冠毒疫情时,如是指出。 她表示依据冠毒的特质,目前不太可能全面阻断病毒传染,因此很可能会反复出现传染群,只是传染率偏低。 “即表示,未来不时会出现感染病例增加的情况,而我国必须拥有足够的能力和资源来应对。” 梁玉心教授续指出,在应对病毒带来的冲击,想方设法应对新病例、减少死亡率和发病率方面,足够和专业的医疗设施及体系也是必不可少的。
