Now to hear the driver's side of the story. Won't be surprised if the video is from the driver 🙊

It's a shame that WP did not do more to 'investigate', hearing that the driver insistently warned Pritam and other members of the CEC.

@Wabbitsmiles @singapore they chose to turn a blind eye

Unless I'm mistaken, he seems to imply he disclosed the whistleblower to Leon. I guess this from the fact that he said Leon Perera told him he is dismissing the driver. If it's true, 8ts appalling. No one will take the risk to whistleblow anymore.

Did the driver gave the evidence when he met them? Without evidence, it would be he said A they said B.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ya lor, Pritam say driver never give corroborating evidence. Driver only say time, place (hotel, restaurant) and what they do (hugging, touching hands)

To me, all these were evidence as well. Or idk how to call it. like Pritam can ask LP were you here at this time and place, doing this with NS?

Of course parties cannot like suka suka open COI from any Tom dick or Harry report, but this sounds a bit too lax.

Akin to how alleged S.A. that are reported to academic institutions has been happening the past decade. Yes it begins with he say she say, then does the responsible authorities just stop at no pic no talk?

It is not evidence.

Of course they can investigate.

But what if after investigation they found that the driver lie? See what happened in Parti Liyani’s case, innocent people got hurt.

We now can say you should have investigated it. Before that, you have things to consider.

So itt is not straightforward.

Yes I agree it's not so straightforward, and what goes on behind the scenes the public will never know.

But I think there's this grey area that I'm thinking if it is possible to conduct an official investigation without it being made public and blown out of proportion? Because to me now it just sounds like

  • driver say this,
  • WP just have a coffee with LP,
  • LP say no,
  • case closed.

Whereas the PAP one still got reach until the attempt 'counselling' and 'agree to break it off' of sorts 🤷‍♂️

On PAP one, maybe they got hard proof so they can’t say no. Or they straightaway admit it. We don’t know.

Anyway, what if PAP one really break it off after “counselling”? Sweep it under the rug?

In any case, love (or lust?) blinded all four.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's the thing about hard proof, knowing PAP wanting to keep a pristine image, I bet any matter regarding the integrity or propriety of their members, big or small will be dug until there is proof, or concrete lack of. Of course what they do with the proof depends on their political strategy (admit/ sweep under rug)

I'm sure there's many other dead and dirty things under this rug for all parties. And it sounds like you-know-that-i-know-that-i-also-know-you 👀✌️

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hell yes, all parties has dead and smelly dirty things in a box hidden somewhere. Since I have nothing further to write, I’ll just put my opinion on all politicians. politicians = rats.
