Why Is This $$$ FAPee Minister So Free?
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
Issue is whether WP changed position on foreign workers Published on May 31, 2014 1:22 AM  1 4 0 0 PRINT EMAIL .flashAd_127799574_37959767934{width:300px !important;height:250px !important;padding:0px !important;border:0px !important;margin:0px !important;overflow:hidden !important;} IN THE article ("Exchange raises questions on role of opposition"; Thursday), assistant political editor Robin Chan said some people may see the Workers' Party (WP) as a "small party that is still growing, still finding its way, and which needs to be given time", that "the WP cannot yet match the PAP in terms of depth and breadth in policymaking, and perhaps also in vision", and that "eventually, the WP, to be a truly credible opposition in Parliament, must be held to the high standards of politics that Mr Lee (Hsien Loong) spelt out". The WP may indeed need time to master the depth and breadth of policymaking, but surely that argument cannot apply to the fundamental principles of honesty and integrity. In Prime Minister Lee's exchange with Mr Low Thia Khiang in Parliament on Wednesday, the issue was less about the merits of the WP's foreign worker proposals, and more about whether the WP had changed its position on foreign workers, and if so, whether it had acknowledged and explained this change. In other words, whether Mr Low and his colleagues had been honest, transparent and accountable to Singaporeans. Mr Low maintained that the WP had not flip-flopped. But as PM Lee pointed out, this is false, and the truth is recorded in the Parliamentary Reports. Singapore's future and well-being depend on political parties practising constructive politics and our politicians upholding honesty and integrity. If a party does not value honesty, transparency and accountability from the very start, it is unlikely to become honest, transparent and accountable one day.
