GezaiXi @ 韭菜芭城隍庙 ,Singapore 为善歌仔戏 - 戏名：江湖泪，14.05.11 农历3月13

Jennifer say:



14.05.11 （Sat): Today went to sheng Hong temple to watch gezaixi. Somehow, today opera is not very good - not sure of reason although i loved taiwan gezaixi. Maybe today is sad story mah. Think the huadan and xiaosheng not charming enough although their performance were very good. Hua dan is a bit plump to be xiao sheng while xiao sheng was too short. But had to say - overall performance were prefect as like each and every taiwan opera shown in singapore.

07.05.11 (Sat): Election 2011

Jennifer say:


07.05.11 (Sat): Today Workers' Party set the first record for entering into Parliament by breaking the unbreakable GRC.

Aljunied GRC was won by WP tonight. It was a great win. The winning was reversed. In the last election 2006, WP got around 44% votes while PAP got over 50% votes. Now the votes are clearly reserved.

PAP 59,732. WP 72,165. Spoilt 1,788. 54.71% WP, PAP 45.21%

Hougang was also win by WP, Yaw Shin Leong.

Workers' Party had done us proud for wining a GRC. Finally.. But their other teams that fight but lose in other SCM and GRC lost with a respectable percentage.. almost all are able to maintain a percentage of over 40%. Joo Chiat was a very close fight : WP got 48.99 while PAP got 51.01%. It was so close that WP requested for recount.



Potong Pasis was sadly lost, the fight was very close, PAP only win by 144 votes. In next election, PP SMC should be gone. So sad. High chance for PP to be absorbed into other wards, just like Cheng San GRC. Mr Chiam, i respect you for safeguarding PP for 27 years. Although Mr chiam had lost, he is still a highly respectable figure.

Overall, PAP win is 60.14%. source from http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/The-Temasek-Review/190806675782. Not many happy faces that i noticed from the higher rank ministers, nothing to be that happy with lower percentage win in fact. And They lost a GRC. Bye bye George Yeo..

I noticed today the PAP winners all said that they will listen to heart of ppl and helped them. If they had done that earlier, maybe votes will not be lost.

Election 2011, close. Year 2016 New Election and New fight, i will welcome u. Hope my extremely high level of enthusiasm stil can continue in year 2016.

I had attended WP every rally in every location be it wet, dry, hot, cold, muddy. It is time worthwhile to spend where i get to listen to Singaporean rights as a citizen. Yes, WP helped me to realise what impt issues that can affect me and my next generation esp the high HDB flats and high medical costs. I am proud to say that WP win 6 seats. Heard this is the biggest seats lost for PAP. People Power are united. If underestimate and overconfident, this is what happened.

We finally have a alternative voice in Parliment. Although there are only 6 of them but this is the first step to balance the powers of ruling party. Worker's Party had choose a wise strategy this year, A Team candidates. Mr Low had not let his supporters down by winning. Workers' Party Rock.. yeah!! super happy.. Yes... Set history for Singapore.

05.05.11 - Workers' Party Rally - Alijunied GRC at Serangoon Stadium

Jennifer say:


05.05.11 (Thurs): Today is the last day of Rallies for Singapore. Tml is a new day created by ruling party called cooling day - according to the TV, there should be no rallies and no outdoor walkabout but media still can promote parties news.

Then come 7.05.11 (sat) is the big day where oridinary citizens are 'teachers' that grade the 'student's.


I took bus 72 and 103 to serangoon stadium. I reached there at 640pm but needed to sit in the middle of the field. Luckily weather was very good - mabye Tiangong had eyes, see WP so many ppl so decided to give us a dry night.

Today rally is very good, heard there are 30K of us in the stadium.

Like How Mr Low said he came to contest Alijunied GRC because LKY challenged him to do so so here Mr Low to contest. Mr Low also mentioned if in Alijunied GRC, our foreign minister is so impt, he should not be contesting in that ward. I felt that the ruling party had badly miscalculate on the power of oppposition party. Overconfident and underestimate the power of oppositin parties will lead them to failure.

At the end of the rally, we said the Singapore pledge together. So wonderful and nice feeling to say the pledge with fellow supporters.



Pledge Taking - a short video i took in the middle of the field, not a good video as I am too short.. hahahahahaha and in the middle of the field

04.05,11 - Workers' Party Rally at Open Field of Ubi Ave 3 (Aljunied GRC)

Jennifer say:


04.05.11 (Tue): We were late for today rally. By the time we took bus 25 at near 8 pm, we reached our bus at Blk 637 Enous Link. We took abt 10 min to walk the the super muddy field.

The field was super wet. Although the volunteers tried to use gaint plastic sheet to cover the field, as more and more ppl walked on the sheet, mud water start to strain the whole sheet. The crowd stream in endlessly.

By the time we walk out, our shoes and everyone else shoes were full of mud.

As we were late, we stay at a rather far end but we can still see the stage. Initally, we cannot hear the speaker voice. I cannot heard Mr Chen speech as a resulf ot the speaker volume. Then somehow WP realised those at the far end like us cannot hear the volumn, so they increased the volumn. After that, i can heard the voice clearly.

I like Mr Low and Mr singh speech today: Mr Low said Only those whom did a terrible sin need to repent and how Hougang is well maintained over his charge. Mr Singh said HDB should be more transparent on what is the cost of building HDB flats.

Mr Low said today is the May Fourth Movement in China. I asked mum if she knew this inccident. She said can recall. Then Mr Low sumarrised what happen on that date. I did a google on this date: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Fourth_Movement

03.05.11 - Workers' Party Rally - Punggol East SMC rally At Open Field Bounded by Sengkang East Ave and Sengkang East Dr

Jennifer say:


03.05.11 (Mon): Today i was quite early for the rally. The field was very wet. As the rally continued, the rain turned heavy. But for most of us, we stay put till the rally ended at 9.45pm.

Mr low had spoken of the statement by PAP. If the account was not done well, Mr Low will be sue and in trouble. Boos for the ununcessary accuse. I like Mr Singh words: We wanted Rojak. We wanted more colours in parliment other than the long ruling white. More Colours please.

As the rain turned heavy, some supporters had become impatient with the rally speaker. Not that he did not spoke well, he was more focused on his speech but he ended when he himself realised supporters only wanted to hear Mr Low speech first.

When Mr Low spoke, most of us cheered. As it was still raining, the impatient auntie behind me was telling me to shut my umbrella. Peiseh lah, auntie, still got rain, u said no rain and tell me i blocked ppl. haizz..

My FB friend gave me this post:

In Singapore , majority of us live in HIGHLY DANGEROUS BUILDINGS (HDB) . Most people also gotten used to PAY AND PAY (PAP) . Not only do you have to pay , you PAY UNTIL BANKRUPT (PUB) . If you dont own a car , you can always take the MOST RIDICULOUS TRANSPORT (MRT) , or take a SI BEI SLOW (SBS) bus by other commuters . This is the life of a normal Singaporean

So funny post. I super liked it... nice one.










Rally speakers


Uncle very ON, bring gaint hammer to rally
