Why do I say so? Because, let me put it this way, SO WHAT if the PAP is doing an excellent job containing the Covid virus? In Singapore, ladies and gentlemen, there are a thousand more reasons to vote PAP out, and I would not even list Covid-19 as one of them.

No objective person looking at these figures will conclude that the outbreak is under control in our country, 2 months into the crisis. We are not seeing a fall in numbers but an increase.

It is alarming when a video clip of PM Lee himself circulating hand sanitizer to a group crowding around him. Where was safe-distancing in this case even though he has to be more visible to the public at the time when the GE maybe upon us? Remember, this safe distancing thing has been preached by the Government themselves, yet here was the leader going around happily disregarding his own Government's sound advice.

So the reluctance of the PAP Ministers to rule out the General Elections from happening soon speaks volume to Singaporeans. it does seem that the GE would be happening, not in April 2021, but most likely during this year itself. As the COVID19 virus is not likely to disappear anytime soon, Yee ponders how elections can go on as per normal.

Opposition politician Lim Tean is echoing what every opposition politicians are saying, and what almost every Singaporeans know is true - that the PAP government is using the COVID19 uncertainty and goodwill to their advantage. By deciding to call the GE anytime soon around the period when the virus is spreading like wildfire all around the world, the PAP have been called irresponsible, conniving and now, disgusting.

This has led to opposition WP member Yee Jenn Jong to question if the GE has to be held no matter what, then why is the Elections Department not released the EBRC report, even after months working on it. He also indicated that this was the best time to show that the Elections Department and the government are independent of each other.

The PAP have been reported in their mouthpiece, the Straits Times as having started their selection process for the next generation of Yes men and women to take on the role of PAP candidates in the coming General Election. In case Singaporeans are still in the dark, lately, there has been an increase in the door-to-door visits done by MPs to their residents houses, signalling the beginning of showing their faces for the coming Elections.

I have read lots of articles requesting Mr LHY to join the Opposition. Although it is not entirely impossible, he will most likely not join the opposition because he is the son of Lee Kuan Yew, the man with many enemies in the opposition.

How amusing it is to see Singaporeans complaining about an Electorate system halfway round the world, while they kept quiet about our very own GRC system.

The younger generation overwhelmingly voted for PAP after seeing their parents and grandparents crying during the week of mourning for the deceased former prime minister.The passing of LKY is a one time occurrence, so PAP will not do any better than it has at this recent GE.
