No campaigning on 6 May 2011

Dear Mr. Tan
I hope everyone in the oppositions to exercise extreme care on May 6. Please exercise extreme care not to do anymore campaigning.

I got chills when I think about the parallels of actions and events with what has happened in Singapore. My thoughts after watching? What is the true history of Singapore? Each and every Singaporean must know about this so that we can make a Singaporean Singapore.

They suka suka enact laws just to put them down. Last time their focus attacks were on James Gomey, now they
train eyes on Chen Show Mao, their most feared opponent. So Ah Mao, be prepared for more bullets to come.; April 20, 2011 10:58 AM

May I respectfully use your forum to gently also remind all bloggers and folks who leave comments to be very careful careful with their choice of words on 6 May.

I'm not familiar with the full details of the rules on 6th May.

But whatever that needs to be said, please finish by 5th May.

I'm not sure if blog owners will be held responsible for comments especially on a sensitive day like 6 May. So please, let's help keep each other out of trouble.

At the risk of being flamed, blog owners may wish to turn off their comments feature on 6 May.

It's not gag order on public, i.e. the public can still discuss election topics at home, at coffeeshop and even on internet.

For the candidates and personnels involved, it's a rest day after 9 days of tedious campaign activities. For the public, it's the day to think over their choice without noises from both sides.; April 20, 2011 1:22 PM

Vincent Sear said...: Zhummmeng is blunt but right again. Anybody breaking any cooling off day rule may be disqualified before polling, or even after, have result challenged and annulled if s/he wins.; April 20, 2011 11:52 PM
