We are choosing who is the next president not whose wife is our next mrs president
Why the pec never mentioned who has foreign wife will be disqualified from participating PE?

Anything wrong?
Insinuating division among Singaporean.
Too me, it's xenophobic.
And not a quality for the highest office.

He did not say that they are second class citizens.
He also did not comment anything bad about being born overseas.
He just said Singaporeans prefer locally born citizens.
What is wrong with that comment?
In Singapore job postings portals, the recruiting companies have to advertise and choose a Singapore citizen job seeker before opening up to other foreign nationalities. I don’t see any hoo har there.
So as to support the estab’s choice of the EP, the MSM go overboard and distort TKL’s comment till kingdom come.

Did he say you must vote for him because his wife and him are local born local bred local everything?
No right?
He was comparing the Candidate's wife's as a choice for voters.
No?
What about his "don't meddle with my family" request? Forgotten?

You and your exaggerations
LKY had always said and hold to this truth....that divisions are there, it's latent and inborn, that's why there is HDB quota on race
Please come down from cloud nine
TKL will make a GREAT PEOPLE's President
Full Stop

I reiterate this again:
Singapore is NOT ready for an Indian President
CECA is the proof
We are also not ready for a Japanese mix First Lady
This echoes the sentiment of many of the eldest who had experienced the atrocities of the Japanese in ww2
Maybe next generation when all of them had died out, then maybe we are ready
But pouring radioactive waters into the SCS is a BIG NO NO
So we are calling a spade a spade
The Japs will never change, we do not like to identify with such low-life
Hello, what do u mean Singapore is not ready for Indian president? We already had 2 Indian presidents. U live in mountain is it?

Plain folks" is a form of propaganda and a logical fallacy. A plain folks argument is one in which the speaker presents themselves as an average Joe — a common person who can understand and empathize with a listener's concerns.

You sleeping or what?
Did you vote for them?
I didn't
IAM of the belief that the present sentiments remained the same. We are NOT ready!
CECA is the proof
