Mr Png Eng Huat for Hougang!


21st May 2012

It has been about a year after the general elections last year.  My understanding of politics in Singapore has increased with some readings, exchanges with people whom I learnt a lot from, as well as exposing myself to people of different political views.  Last year, before elections, I volunteered with National Solidarity Party (NSP) as they have contested in Tampines.  Prior to the elections, I focused mainly on understanding NSP's manifesto.  I would not say that I wholeheartedly supported the team (due to my lack of understanding of politics back then) but I knew the reasons why I was reluctant to vote for the ruling party and also I believed my motivation to not have one of the ministers, standing in Tampines GRC, to renew his term as a minister and Member of Parliament was strong.

After the elections, as suggested by one of the friends I made on the polling day, I decided to visit a few opposition parties during their open house and other activities.  As for the ruling party, I attended a Meet-the-People Session in my constituency.  I am not going to reveal the details about my visits and my personal take on each party, but after having observed The Workers' Party some time, I began to see a new hope for Singapore.  I have witnessed how people in the party worked and I liked what I saw.  Therefore, I volunteer, learn and grow as a person.  Today I can proudly say that I am a volunteer of The Workers' Party and I fully subscribe to the party's beliefs for Singapore.  Just to name one -- to serve the people and to ensure that the People’s Action Party does not forget their responsibility to serve you.  Without opposition parties intervention, I believe there may be little or no improvements in our systems since elections last year.

Dear Hougang residents,
Please vote for Mr Png Eng Huat!
He is a truly nice person whom I have known even before the by-election. He and The Workers' Party are ready to serve Hougang residents and Singaporeans!

HUAT ah!!!

Regards,
Pamela

Honouring Mr Lee Kuan Yew

23 Mar 2015: While getting ready for work, Nat told me that Mr Lee Kuan Yew has passed on. I didn't expect the multitude of sadness that followed. Found out that Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong would be addressing Singaporeans on his father's death at 8am and my heart went out to him. As I was watching his address, I am reminded that no matter who he is, he is still his father's son. When I see the profile and cover pictures of many of my friends changed into mono colours, I see unity and appreciation. By human standards perhaps we may debate about whether he is a good leader, but I believe he was called to serve with the others when Singapore really needed one. RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew.

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I h...

*peace in outer planet*

for days my life on outer planet was blissful, i hope that's not too big a word to use. all i do is eat, work, read and sleep. sounds awesome. yea, it was. even met up with people i really haven't seen in a while. glad that they still look so much recognizable. their hairstyle didn't even change one bit. minutes turn to hours, and to days, and to weeks. tell you something great. my parents are lovely. my relationship with them is good. one of the best things God has given me. i'm undeniably playful and full of curiosity which lead to some pretty unnecessary exploration, experiences of the dumb whatsoever and yet they just let me be. they know that i'll be back i assume. somehow. probably i underestimated their understanding of me. as i grow up. my amount of allies dip lower. all i can say is, i think i did or am still trying to do something about it. alrighty, bottom line: i'm fine. just to update. ;p
