在新加坡从政非易事,要作为在野党在我国政坛占有一席之地更难,而工人党的候选议员们纷纷发帖指出,家人是他们最强的后盾、最忠诚的粉丝,感谢另一半的伟大付出。

工人党候选议员在胜出后,除了感谢选民支持,这两日来也在社交媒体上,向他们的另一半表示感谢。

从政并非小事,而我国对政治家的要求更是不少。除了长时间在外工作,从候选人到国会议员、选举期间和为社区人民服务的种种繁琐工作,都意味着他们在家人身边的时间会更少,甚至导致生活紧张。

因此,为了感激家人的支持,尤其身边另一半的付出,工人党纷纷在社交媒体上发帖,感谢另一半的支持。

已结婚八年并育有两名女儿的毕丹星在帖文中指出,他在2012年的婚礼演讲中哭了,因为身为国会议员,他也必须取舍和妻子相处的时间。

Making our vote count in GE2020! Everyone who attended my wedding dinner in 2012 knows that I cried at one point when I delivered my wedding speech. I did so exactly at the point when I verbalized the fact that my wife would make sacrifices because of my decision to enter politics and my position as a Member of Parliament. I felt it was an unfair imposition. And I felt it was asking for a lot for a person to make such a commitment, supporting a spouse who would be absent during certain stretches and worse – mentally at work even if he was physically at home. And I have had my fair share of challenges, obstacles and doubts about my chosen path in the intervening years as an MP. But my dear wife walked with me, and did so much more. It has been almost exactly what 8 years since we tied the knot. Two beautiful daughters later, she continues to be my pillar of strength, the wind beneath my wings. There is nobody else who rocks my world, and who has done so much to make me a better person. As our older daughter, and in time, our younger one will say, I love you to the moon and back. Looking forward to the many many more miles to come my love. #iloveyou

工人党盛港集选区候任议员辣玉莎的帖文简短而温馨,她上载了和丈夫的拥抱照片。26岁就当选的她在帖文中写到,“结婚周年快乐!我们在各方面都是平等的,我感恩能与我心灵的伴侣分享这个旅程”。

已结婚17载的严燕松在帖文中,分享了妻子所给予的行动支持,她时阿裕尼集选区投票站的监票员之一。

“经过多次选举的失败和斗争,她支持我并相信我。很多有前途的政治家隐退(或从未摆脱困境),因为家人的反对。我很感恩上天,让我一直拥有艾莲娜(Elena)、孩子和父母的支持,没有他们,我不可能继续。”

符策涫的帖文中英并用,所附上的图片也很逗趣,即符策涫蹲下身来为妻子绑鞋带。

他在贴文中感谢妻子对他的信任和支持,让他拥有了“欧巴”和“小跟班”的感觉。“虽然我支持曼联,而你是利物浦的粉丝,但是你确保我永远不会孤单。谢谢你,亲爱的。你是我的挚友、同伴和一生挚爱。”

Since the day we were together, you knew my political beliefs. You supported me all the way and during my first contest, you even rushed to our rallies to wait patiently for my turn to speak. I felt so pampered like an “Oppa” with a “小跟班”. You never fail to brighten up my days with your failed chinese days with phrases like “老黄瓜,自卖自夸” instead of “老黄卖瓜”. Also coming home one day to see two dills clipped to a cup with clothes pegs just like a “降头” black magic setup to bewitch me, which I feel is totally redundant as I have always being smitten by you. Although you are a Liverpool fan while I support Man Utd, you made sure I never get to walk alone. Thank you dear. You are my best friend, companion and love of my life.

尚穆根“外国势力干预”论 正是人民行动党“屡试不爽的策略”

针对日前,内政部长兼律政部长尚穆根声称,新加坡在一定程度上已经面对外来势力的干预的言论,人权律师张素兰反讽,这正是人民行动党“屡试不爽的策略”。 今日(26日)人权律师张素兰于脸书专页功能八号氏族会发表一篇名为《外来干涉?》(FOREIGN INTERFERENCE?)的贴文,指出每当批评人民行动党言论的文章被刊登,都会将矛头指向外国人,以意图制造新加坡分裂而被指责。 此外,针对尚穆根日前点名本社与《新叙事》(NewNaratif)接受外国款项与聘雇外国人一事,张素兰形容,该行为就如同一场“政治迫害”(witch hunt),直指每当人民行动党在打压之前,总会拿出有“外来干涉”等理由。 “每当人民行动党在打压之前,总是会以“外来势力干涉新加坡事务”为由,这是屡试不爽的策略,过去在1963年大量使用与破坏对他们不利的指控。” 张素兰:这是人民行动党一贯的伎俩 张素兰在文内也提及当年的“冷藏行动”以及其他相关事件,直指这是人民行动党所采取的一贯伎俩。 她表示,当时汶莱左派领导人阿扎哈利(A.M. Azahari)在发动“汶莱武装事变”(1962年12月8日)之前,曾会见我国反对党领袖,社阵领导人林清祥。当天的两人会面,却给已故总理李光耀很好的借口,以遭“外来干涉”为由,发动“冷藏行动”。 “当天是在一个著名的马来菜饭的餐厅享用午餐,而且午餐聚会还被内部安全局所监视。据林福寿医生说法,我国反对党领袖只是发表声援声明,未曾提供任何财务与物质上的支持”。 张素兰续指,“那场午餐聚会成为李光耀的接口,得以发动那一直被推迟的“冷藏行动”。他声称汶莱武装事变是“上天赐予的好时机”,逾133名反对党领袖和批评人民行动党的人,在内安法令下遭拘捕和扣留。”…
