Low

At a walkabout on Sunday morning in Nee Soon GRC, the Workers’ Party secretary general, Low Thia Khiang, took a swipe at the deputy prime minister’s remarks about Mr Low shedding “crocodile tears” over the resignation of Transport Minister, Lui Tuck Yew.

First Mr Low reiterated his views, which he had expressed when Mr Lui announced his stepping down from politics last week, that Mr Lui was someone he respected as a minister.

Translation – “I feel that it is a loss to the cabinet for his (Mr Lui Tuck Yew) departure from the cabinet, we also have lost a very hardworking minister. But I think, good advice often jars on the ear, PAP might not necessarily be able to listen it in.”

【选举】对林绍权人品提质疑 爆料者欢迎王瑞杰向他了解详情

人民行动党本月24日,宣布吉宝岸外与海事总经理的林绍权(42岁)成为该党候选人之一,不料却引来坊间反弹,更有网民踢爆他是精英主义者,也称林在新加坡武装部队服务时“表现得高高在上”,与表面朴实形象不符合。 随着行动党第一助理秘书长王瑞杰,呼吁林绍权应站出来为自己澄清,后者也终于在今午(27日)打破沉默,发声明指一些指责“是无证据的,包括自己也没涉及吉宝岸外与海事集团在巴西的贿赂案件。” 不过对于军中事件,他指“不同人对事件会有不同看法”。有者指他需晚上10时报到,但一般惯例是晚上11时59分。 “我想要解释的是,那一次部队人员隔天清晨5时得提早出外训练,因此按照规定,我必须确保大家有充足的休息,所以才会要求部下在前一晚10时报到。” 不过网民似乎仍不买账,指林绍权的回应似乎未直面问题,无法令人信服;再者,许多批评者都是以真账号作出指责,相信事出必有因。 其中一名爆料者更直接点名王瑞杰,欢迎后者任何时候找他,他会站稳自己表达的声明,并直接与林绍权对质。 “我希望我们的谈话记录在案,并公开予举国同胞,毕竟我们都意识到,核实候选人人品的重要。”
