Raising this issue in Parliament risks heated attacks from the PAP because it is their pet policy and they will do anything to defend it.

The debate is totally asymmetric as :

1. The PAP holds all the data and refuse to give free access. It means they can ambush him with data they are holding a d hide data against them.

2. He has to handle many attacks coming from all directions from PAP members who totally outnumber him including ex lawyers and debaters.

3. He has to endure insults, cornering and  also trick questions designed to trap him...and all the dirty ploys they play on him to make him look bad. He was also falsely accused of promoting racism and xenophobia.  

But one thing the PAP cannot do is change the truth. The truth we can observe with our own eyes.....the real numbers we observe on the ground.

We know the negative impact of PAP policies from our own experience. When we try to buy a home we know prices are less affordable as demand has gone up. When we apply for a job it is harder to get as there are so many applicants including foreigners. If we do get a job it is harder to hold on to it as the employers can replace us easily with foreigners willing to accept lower pay. These are the hard truths faced by Singaporeans on a daily basis.

No amount of insults and false accusations against Leong Mun Wai can change the truth.

LMW deserves high praise for this debate. Otherwise, many Singaporeans wud hv been ignorant on this or unaware of this CECA concerns. LMW shd stands strong with many Singaporeans supporting his views and standing in his side.
