I am a PAP supporter but I am very sad that they chose to try to bring down the Worker Party through Raeesah' s lie. Every educated individual would know that Edwin Tong's line of questioning is overbearing and attempting to force Pritam to admit to wrongdoings through silly assumptions. It went on for so long and it is very painful to watch. PAP should stop doing such things as I am sure it is putting off a lot of educated voters. You just need to establish the facts and come out with a report on how the Worker Party Central Committee could have handle it better. That's all. Now this circus show is circulating on social media and it reflects very badly on PAP trying to pin blame on Pritam while there is no significant evidence. My sympathy lies with Pritam Singh.

There is coffee shop here but less than 5 table outdoor while the rest are benches. It is totally different in Sengkang west under PM LHL. Sengkang east GRC is meant to be given to opposition forever so that the high food prices and lack of proper amenities will depress the resale price to warn the rest not to follow Sengkang footstep. The snub from democracy summit is a startling reminder that Even with almost 10 opposition members Singapore is still not recognised as democracy by western standard.

really like pritam singh here in this. here is a great example where there is already a narrative formed in edwin tong’s mind about this situation. i think it is really rude for edwin tong to reject the suggestion of psychiatric assessment of raeesah immediately, without giving much consideration. and how could he ask such a question, where he seeks an answer on the mindset of raeesah during those times, to pritam? how would he have known? even if pritam gave an answer to edwin, it would be deemed inaccurate as raeesah herself didn’t mention it. but i’d assume edwin will accept the answer anyway as it would have fit nicely in the narrative formed in his head.

To be fair, Pritam has no authority or right to ask for a psychiatric assessment of Raeesah. Imagine if Raessah ask for a psychiatric assessment of Pritam, that makes no sense right?

Hey Edwin Tong, perhaps it was slow brain day for you; we all have this some days, don’t worry and don’t feel bad.

There may be no good reason at all such as, you letting out a fart at 6:15pm this evening instead of at 6:10pm when no one is around. There could also be many and multiple reasons. Or, and get this, she may not even know why she lied. Pritam telling you to have her undergo a psychiatric evaluation is simply one way of telling you, hey, this is one explanation we could feasibly explore instead of sitting here speculating and gossiping like two old grannies with nothing better to do. In other words, go bark somewhere else. Not going to play this dumb game with ya. Ok?

[@danielajean7295]

There's no way Mr Tong asked that question why RK would still lie even with his senior members, it is because she probably had to lie to protect herselves from potential scoldings and to stay in the party. Its like a friend of me who asked me to lend him a sum of money to do investment ended up getting scammed. He first told me that he got scammed of $2000 and needed time to repay. Caught his lie after a few days when one of his friends complained. In actuality, he was scammed $10000. As friends and I already know he lied, he still lie in our conversation about the sum.

[@I-ys8pb]

ET talks more than Pritam. So, who is questioning whom?

[@thanapillai8069]

When RK fabricate the lie, she did not require WP, PS or SL help but to own up to the truth she needed their approval. What a joke .

[@jeremyalg8192]

The Chairman is a mute??? ET capacity as a committee member is a joke for all to see. 🤣

[@cjhalfred8173]

Ask people not to interrupt but end up interrupting the whole time

[@cupcake125]

Honestly Edwin Tong isnt making ANY SENSE at all. I think he's just really afraid and stressed to face Pritam Cuz Pritam is so eloquent and knows his shit so well that he doesn't know how to take him down...

[@shazamosha]

What a waste of taxpayers money having this committee. She already resigned as an MP. Move on. No one cares

[@ECiT745]

What was Raeesah trying to accomplish by lying?

[@helloitshash]

Lets not forget ET was the one who fought for KH right?

[@spyketan72]

RK is a compulsive liar, by now everyone who follows knows that. What or why she lies I bet she herself cannot explain. RK is stacking lies on top of lies, there is no way to know which sentence or word is a lie anymore, not even herself and yet this gentleman can read her mind, outstanding.

[@kaister901]

What dumb lawyer asks a third person. Why do you think that person lied? The fk? The only way anyone can know why a person lied is, if they were that person..... That's why you use evidence instead of assumptions to look at what they lied about and not why. To then decide on how bad the after math of the lie is. Then take action based on the after math of that lie. You can never ever find out the real why to their lie. A lawyer should know this....

[@daisybb8148]

I hate....seeing this and it gives me chest pains. I feel so ashame for PAP. Come on...move on. Other things to worry about, we need to pay our bills, things are so expensive....

[@vincelim1745]

Next time doing recording. Dont just take whatsapps message . Tong, a coin have two side of flower. IF you are Second Minister of Law, how can you as Minister of Law, base on people whatsapps . You want to solve a issue, bring all the people to Committee Privilege hearing. not just base this and that whatsapps message.

[@financialcafe]

Plus there's such a thing called a lie detector

[@medadleong746]

Ms Khan lied and got caught in a web of lies. WP could have done a better job handling d matter I think we all can agree. But this whole 8 hour session was Mr Tong trying to get a moment where Mr Singh would incriminate himself by using every sort of unfair interrogation tactic in d book. Disallowing PS to clarify statements, personal insults, only respond Yes or No, spinning whatever narratives to state Mr Singh is d reason RK lied. ET sadly comes off very sensitive and arrogant. I genuinely hope the outcome of this committee will be fair and open minded and not just mindlessly blaming WP leadership and not RK. They definitely could have handled matters better i believe that’s fair criticism but they should not be punished as a whole

[@kmanlykmanly8624]

RK is truly a liability to the worker's party the minute she joins the party. What kind of MP lies again, again, and again in parliament?

[@Diskojesuz]

ET and RK needs to go to jail for wasting country’s resources and everybody’s time.

[@steventay5834]

ET looks damn LL

[@batuksri]

What his full name ah? Izzit Edwin Tong Koh Song?

[@yvvonelee5026]

Edwin Tong you finally met your Waterloo.

[@ongernie7216]

We need to set up another COP to investigate these bunch of COP. This is totally shame to the system to comes to such a ridiculous stage.

[@musthady8004]

when to finish lie is lie, why drag others members in this saga, we have alot to focus for sgporean. put a full stop pls. punish a liar that the point.

[@gnome1645]

Just look at his eyes.

[@magnusthor6259]

I am a PAP supporter but I am very sad that they chose to try to bring down the Worker Party through Raeesah' s lie. Every educatedindividual would know that Edwin Tong's line of questioning is overbearing and attempting to force Pritam to admit to wrongdoings through silly assumptions. It went on for so long and it is very painful to watch. PAP should stop doing such things as I am sure it is putting off a lot of educated voters. You just need to establish the facts and come out with a report on how the Worker Party Central Committee could have handle it better. That's all. Now this circus show is circulating on social media and it reflects very badly on PAP trying to pin blame on Pritam while there is no significant evidence. My sympathy lies with Pritam Singh. Having posted this , would I still vote for PAP next election? The answer is YES! and I tell you the reasons why. Apple has many questionable practices. They admitted that installing iOS updates could slow down older iPhones. " Apple has been fined 25 million euros (£21m, $27m) for deliberately slowing down older iPhone models without making it clear to consumers." Apple "committed the crime of deceptive commercial practice by omission" and had agreed to pay the fine. Apple is still continuing this practice. I am sure you are aware of the many other questionable practices that Apple adopts. But would you boycott Apple because of this? No , millions still flock to purchase iphones for the simple reason " Iphones work well, are user friendly and customers get value for money" So I would look beyond Edwin Tong. PAP has brought about Singapore's prosperity all these years. Yes they have many questionable practices but what is of utmost importance for us? The continued prosperity of Singapore. Worker Party is an unknown product though I appreciate their presence because "Opposition’s role to ensure PAP doesn’t have ‘blank cheque to do whatever it wants’: WP chief Pritam Singh.

[@hanzo9941]

Sorry but Apple's phones aren't good.

[@alexteo1156]

Why..? Just a hypothesis. But. Not uncommon for a liar to cover up a preceding lie with more lies in effort to appear consistent, especially to protect her own image in front of her closest associates.

[@ethanang3527]

Be careful what you do, cause the lie will become the truth.

[@winwinwin282828]

Edwin tong is a clown .

[@kengtan1421]

Edwin Tong seems to conduct a interrogation, this is over bearing. Why Khan lied, to be fined $35K is not the point. In my personal opinion she brings dis-ho our to her spouse, family, children, Alma Mater etc. If I am PS I would not go further. Parliament is to discuss on welfare of Singaporeans not such personal matters. I may sound too harsh to say I would fire RK,ET and excuse PS. Edwin Tong is a senior Counsel whose job is not to debate such matters in parliament and waste tax payers money. If I am wrong excuse me. I need not apologize for I am exercising my rights to free speech in a democratic nation of Singapore. You don't know me for I was brought out in the tumultuous years of 1950s thank you. Kindly stop all the COP drama. Nothing better to do go to the hawker centre to appreciate how the poor workers struggle to get $1/- for a cup of plain water. God bless you all

[@wiseguy9980]

PS should lead GRC in Marine Parade in the next GE. Showdown 2.0 with ET please

[@fiost1489]

Don't know if he would still be around. Don't be surprised by his resignation

[@chrisching5633]

ET just won’t give up to get d answer he wants🤣

[@limrobert7837]

ET has his own agenda because he is PAP and holds Minister position getting paid millions a year .

[@raytan1661]

Maybe need to go home and poo green shit out first...before another round of boxing trying to win

[@mariantia926]

Ed Tong, PS is not God to truly decipher the truth underlying reason of RK lying. He is not her father. Even you yourself Ed Tong, you are also not God to decipher RK root cause lying.. Utimately it is RK own inner man, holy spirit know best. Human is no longer wiser than a pig. Reason being, we are too focus on knowledge and not on wisdom for more deeper understanding of emotional, psychological over mental mind. If Ed tong have know about this wording meaning, 一切为心造，it is the heart of men in everything we do, which lead to mind. Furthermore, If you have read, study about all the books of Dr John D Young, 杨定一全部生命系列，you will have a total change of approach in heart and mind. More law only made human less and less human but robot.. Anyway, you won't not have God wisdom even you gathered all knowledge in law, God is high above law..

[@encesolezera506]

wonderfully said. "More law only made human less and less human but robot"
