    Although retired MP Low of WP is not legally trained, he managed to withstand the barrage of questions thrown at him using his wits and wisdom. Low's famous phrase.' Ownself .check oneself' directed at PAP is amusing. PAP has always been an opposition killer throughout its reign.

      I agree! And that's why I emphasized at the start of the video that "this video isn't about who has the better policy". But whether we like it or not, humans are influenced by oratory as we're emotional beings.

    • @kaister901
      @kaister901 7 місяців тому +5

      Let me share a harsh truth of life. It's not about what you say but how you say it. In an ideal world, logic beats emotions. Unfortunately, we don't have such a world. If you know anyone that has studied communications, you can ask them. It's seen as a useless topic to study but the truth is quite the opposite. Being factual is not good enough, it's about being able to persuade people while being factual. That involves playing into people's emotions while being factual. That's a skill that is learnt and developed.

      PAP has better oratory than opposition though and have political popularity. But their feel the ground policies sucks, Sg citizens don't have much future if they dont succeed in life. Lacking health and career retrenchment safeguards is a key issue in SG, and they say "Oh cannot must save more for next generation", but u already have shortage of marriage and babies so there is less next generation. A successful country is when non-performing and successful citizens live their life happily under security and bliss.

    This video is highly revealing and hats off to the presenter. The commentaries and coverages were spot on and by separating the men from the boys, it reminded us that personal qualities and public speaking skills determine the credibility of political leaders and political wisdom carries them through thick and thin. In this regard, LHL is a master in this and he performed better than his father at times.

    You based things on how policies are presented & how questions are answered . Bro , honestly ... If you know what people like to hear , you surely answer the questions according to what they like to hear . It's human nature for people to like to only hear what they like to hear .
    Yes , PAP in most people's heart cannot be replaced . But why are there people voting for opposition party ? If you say that they are ignorant or whatever , but isn't it the same for those who voted the PAP ? We all can vote for any party we choose to .
    When a man becomes rich , he forgets that he was once poor . When a man obtains power , he forgot that he was once struggling & if struggling is of concern , means powerless . One who can still be himself is the one who is able to truly know the times he went through to become rich & powerful . And not one who gain those & forget those who got him there in the first place .

    What nonsense this lhl us talking. His policy is the same as his father; totally nothing new. But the circumstances are different now. Singapore has become a rich nation. Yet lhl yet wants the present generation to continue to suffer, for future generation?? The government has more than enough to help the present generation and still save enough for the future. The costs of living are now unusually high, yet lhl still talks like his father when Singapore was poorer. The grandfather wants his grandchildren to continue to tighten their belt and suffer while he drives around in a rolls Royce(ministers salaries and salary of temasik chairman). Lhl is uncaring and has no vision.

    I believe now most Singaporeans know that Pritam is a backstabber. The tender from Sengkang Town Council saw zero applications from Singaporean businesses. How can it be not even 1 tender? It shows that even the businesses knew to avoid the WP at all costs to the extent that they didn't even want to do business and earn profit with WP. This video talks about PAP and WP. However, the editor failed to include another stakeholder, the citizens of Singapore. a.k.a, the voters. The Singaporean voters are very cunning and they are very calculative and opportunists. They are not stupid but shrewd as well. I recalled Mr. Tan Kin Lian talking about receiving a call from a motorist telling him that he was on his way to the voting station and asking to borrow a few hundred dollars from Mr. Tan. The motorist's intention is obvious but shameless. We have a big group of shrewd voters who don't bother with all the drama from either side but vote based on their own short-, medium-, and long-term interests.

    In 1 of my comments earlier in another video I mentioned once Lawrence Wong take over its the beginning of decline in Singapore.

    Singaporeans should NOT be mistaken and feel proud of the currency exchange BECAUSE the "Benefits" of Cheaper Imports are NOT passed down to Singaporeans example eaten away by the "Enterprise created internal inflations" and Only serves to benefit the Rich at the expense of the hardships of ordinary Singaporeans.
    In case any one of you are in doubts, just compare prices across the border OR the price of your petrol.

    Non-Singaporean here, but heavily invested in Singaporean politics as I look up to both how your government and opposition parties conduct themselves.
    I think the greatest thing that Mr LHL did here is that in his exchange with LTK, he ended up making the latter support the oft-repeated stereotype that the WP is just "PAP-lite." Obviously, this isn't the case - there are points where WP diverges in terms of policy, but by asking fundamental questions and cornering LTK, LHL made his party look substandard - at least in this exchange.
    Again, not a criticism of the WP or Mr LTK. I'm aware that the latter has done so much for Singapore during his tenure as de-facto opposition leader, but this shows how much Mr LHL has mastered the art of debating. He displays his stance clearly, his arguments are very structured, and the 4G team will need to learn from his example if they intend to keep the PAP on the apex of SG politics.
