徐顺全录华语视频 吁选民拒绝与民生脱节领袖

“这就是行动党的“pattern”(模式),选举前作出很多承诺,选举后才把账单寄给你,要你买单。”
续广东话、福建话和潮州话,民主党秘书长徐顺全这次录制华语视频,面向国内受中文教育的选民。
在视频中他重申,人民行动党在上届选举作出承诺,要帮助老一辈选民;不过选举后又宣布调涨消费税;新加坡人士全球生活费用最高昂的城市之一,面对财务压力、工资被压抑等问题,但行动党仍执意调涨消费税和其他各种费用。
他也呼吁民众应拒绝让那些和民生脱节的政治人物,继续制定政策影响人们的生活。他认为很多部长不理解许多普通老百姓,在全球生活成本最高昂都会里的生活和挣扎。
另外,他也重申民主党的政策献议,包括提高奢侈品消费税而不是日常用品、归还公积金、避免医疗保健商业化等。
此前,徐顺全以方言发表政见,得以让一些籍贯选民倍感亲切,有者认为此举也更适合用来拉近与老一辈选民的距离。
