Is Nicole Seah coming back to Singapore to volunteer with the Workers’ Party for the upcoming General Election?

The former National Solidarity Party (NSP) candidate who rose to stardom in the General Election 2011, said on her Facebook fanpage that while she would not be contesting in the General Election as a candidate, she would be coming back to Singapore to volunteer in the elections.

“I will come back to help, but not as candidate this round unfortunately,” wrote the 28-year-old digital manager who is based in Bangkok.

The comment is one of many in a discussion on Ms Seah’s fanpage posting of a link of a Mothership.sg interview with He Ting Ru, highly expected to be a WP candidate.

In another of her comments, Ms Seah wrote “No I won’t be able to contest even if I join WP now. What I appreciate about WP is that they have very clear processes for candidacy and membership. There is no fast track or parachuting. So Ting Ru has really gotten to this point because of her hard work helping at the legal and grassroots level.”

Her remark is seen to be an endorsement of the Workers’ Party and its newest candidate for the General Election.

杀人后毁尸灭迹 林厝港烧尸命案被告被判终身监禁

林厝港烧尸命案中51岁被告邱贵福于昨日(19日)高等法院裁定终身监禁。高庭法官林茵倩表示,被告知道掐脖子可致命,仍蓄意掐住死者脖子造成他死亡。被告也因年过50岁,侥幸逃过鞭刑。 该案件发生于2016年7月12日早上8点以后,31岁的中国籍女子崔雅洁在停放于滨海花园通道的一辆黑色宝马轿车内遭残忍杀害。被告在涉嫌杀人后,试图毁尸灭迹,将尸体搬动到林厝港8巷,买了大量木炭和煤油,焚尸三天,将尸体化为灰烬。 凶案曝光后,震惊社会。今年3月开审,于上月被判谋杀罪名成立。 被告在审讯期间向法庭说明,当时他与死者起了争执,一时激动下才掐住死者的脖子,而且律师强调被告本身患有“间接性暴怒症”(intermittent explosive disorder),以借此脱罪。 高庭法官林茵倩驳回上述说法。尽管被告自2002年被诊断出患有间接性暴怒症,但在犯罪过程中既没有表现出来,也没有显著损害他当时的智力,因此认定被告在攻击死者时,虽然是处于混乱状态,但蓄意表现出残忍行为。 间歇性暴怒障碍指患者周期性地无法控制造成言语和身体攻击的冲动。其攻击性行为是未经筹划的,与激惹事件严重度不成比例,并且引起主观上的苦恼或社会心理障碍。 尽管如此,法官林茵倩也表示,并无足够证据证明被告在当天蓄意谋害死者,他更像是担心死者欲向被告雇主揭穿他,而将她带到僻静处让她冷静。 案发经过 根据《雅虎新闻》与《今日报》报道,邱贵福和崔雅洁于2015年结识,便开始约会。 当时邱贵福已婚,育有一名儿子,但却向崔雅洁讹称已离婚。…

称现有禁令“简化、懒惰” 民主党吁规范PMD使用群体、速限与年龄

有鉴于电动滑板车事故频繁,加之近期政府宣布的禁令禁止电动滑板车使用人行道,冲击送餐员生计,民主党提出建议如:限定仅送餐员等使用、设年龄限制、规范使用范围和速限等,并抨击政府的全面禁令仅是“简化和懒惰的下策”。 该党强调行人的安全仍摆在首位,并应严惩那些不负责任的个人代步工具(PMD)使用者,但该党认为全面禁止电动滑板车上行人道也造成问题,同样影响其他负责任使用者的生活。 该党提出的八点建议包括: 限制PMD的使用,例如仅供合格送餐员等,需要靠PMD维生的人士骑行,而不能让供休闲用途 登记用户,和规范PMD的行驶区域、用途和可行驶的时间限制 限定年龄 要求登记用户出席PMD使用条规课程 确保所有PMD载具都具备安全设备,如速限警报等 设下速限,下调在繁忙时段和校园范围的速限,亦可在人行道附加限速带避免超速行驶 用户须在繁忙地段如快铁出入站不得骑行,需下车推行 长远规划则可增设脚车/PMD专用道 该党认为只要集思广益必然能找到安全和较完善的方案,不影响行人安全的情况下,让负责任用户继续使用PMD。而全面禁令显然仅是“简化和懒惰的下策”。…
