During Dr Chee's campaign trail at Bukit Batok yesterday, he bumped into Tharman who was campaigning for Murali Pillai. They gave each other a nice fist bump before heading off.

Did you know that quite a few of our politicians have foreign wives?

To East Coast voters, please vote WP and vote Heng Swee Keat out. This is the best chance for us to get Tharman as Singapore's PM, if Heng is out. You will get Nicole Seah and an excellent WP team in Parliament. Heng Swee Keat can be appointed to head GIC or better still, Temasek Holdings to replace Ho Ching.

Under normal circumstances, nobody really gives two shits about a PAP rallies. However, COVID-19 has made many Singaporeans start tuning in attentively to the Prime Minister's broadcasts. Seizing the opportunity, the PAP rolled out a series of "national broadcasts" about the post-covid-19 future from 7 to 20 June which looks suspiciously like an election rally schedule.

Singapore Democratic Party's Chee Soon Juan lashed out at DPM Tharman for saying the mainstream media here is well-balanced. "If the DPM believes that Singaporeans are no fools, then why does he continue to tell us to believe him and not our lying eyes?"

Guy who appeared on a picture on DPM Tharman's FB clarified that he was not the one who asked about gutter politics. However, he recalled asking about the EP and was not surprised when his question went unanswered.

SDP's Chee Soon Juan voiced his disagreement with DPM Tharman for defending his party's character while at the same time, hedging that he doesn't agree with all the tactics his party mates employ.

DPM Tharman disagreed that PAP engages in gutter politics but why didn't anyone refute similar accusations during the Bukit Batok By-Election, when almost 5000 people signed a statement calling on PM Lee to stop his party from such behaviour?

Our reader disagreed with DPM Tharman's comments that our mainstream media is well-balanced as he lists 8 examples where he thinks it did not go about balanced reporting. What do you think? Is it really 151st media?

Former secretary-general of the National Solidarity Party (NSP) Lim Tean has posted on Facebook in response to remarks by Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam's on the campaign victory of German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
