Dear Mr. Tan
Few pointers for your consideration to reach out to the voters.
The minibonds crisis
The regulators and cabinet aware of what had happened. Nothing done to help the investors. You took the risks to help them. This is one clear example. The EP besides his constitutional role, can play major role in check and balances to ensure the people taken care of.
Healthcare
710000 people benefit. We know our Government is very efficient, moving forward Singaporeans need to know the breakdown. Benefitting 710000 people maybe garneing 7100000 voters to EP of choice. What happen to the sandwich class?
Transparency in the system
This requires mindset change in the government. They have shortcomings yes we agree but must act fast and not wait for 5 years why loose more seats than act on it like we see in the National Day Rally on Transport,sing, Education etc. EP will hear the voice of the people and if need be alert the PM to act on it rather than wait for next GE
Mr Tan, you need to let Singaporeans know besides your constitutional role, how you intend to play a active role to be in touch with the people and should they give feedback how you plan reply. Maybe the media could consider having a monthly column for the President.

I appeal to readers in Mr. Tan’s blog to go to Yahoo News http://sg.news.yahoo.com/singapore/ to show your support for Mr. Tan Kin Lian.
Many supporters for TJS managed to create an impression that TJS is the most popular candidates among TKL, TCB and TJS and advised readers to vote for the most popular candidate.
It seem like they managed to convince some readers that to avoid splitting the votes, they should all give their votes to TJS.
Yes, please reach out to the voters, Tan Kin Lian, & be our voice.
CPF Minimum Sum:
It is disturbing that "those born 1958 & after will be automatically included under CPF Life" (quote from CPF website) for those with 40k or more in their Retirement Account. What this means is that the bulk of our hard-earned money will be further locked up, especially if it is for 40K & above! CPF Minimum Sum keeps increasing & not only that, now you may not even be allowed to pledge or use half for property starting in 2013!! Now till 2012, you are still allowed to use half your minimum sum for property purchase, for yourself as well as for your children, but very very soon, this freedom is taken away. Our hard-earned money will be locked up if Singaporeans do not speak up! At 55 yrs old, you can still take a 15 year housing loan with many banks till 70 years old. You could also sponsor your children or next generation to purchase property to hedge against inflation. It is terribly WRONG for the government to control our hard-earned money to lock up in CPF Life. We must be given choices in our investment decisions! We need freedom to pursue our dreams in housing for ourselves & our children! The 50 per cent pledge of Minimum Sum for property purchase MUST REMAIN in future CPF policies!! We Singaporeans have aspirations & dreams that cash unlocked from CPF can help to fulfil. The Government must be fair to Singaporeans!
