Wah, this Bernard Chen Jiaxi from WP can really flip and flop around really fast - even better than a Prata man can.

One day (26 Dec'15) - he whines and complains that it is unfair that HDB officer follows the PAP candidate around, and not the elected WP-MP. Oh, and he also wants one to follow him.

The very next day (27 Dec'15)  - he wants to "... salute the professionalism of our public officers and civil servants..." and then goes on to imply that PAP really tekan taxing our poor front-line Officers for these PAP walk-abouts and depriving them of "... quality family time and their leisure and rest..."

Oh, and by saying "...instead of politics, let's look at the issue from another perspective....", Bernard has also let slip that his initial post on 26 Dec'15 was really an attempt to play up the politics of the situation and point fingers in an attempt to imply a lapse in protocol.

Bernard: "...See see... an unelected candidate can make HDB officer follow him around leh...."

Bernard had probably soon realised that he was inadvertently suggesting that WP's elected MP Md Faisal did not and/or could not and/or will not request for the same assistance from HDB for whatever their reasons. ie: An Ineffective MP

And he goes on to do damage-control by suggesting that WP's way of doing things (ie: ".. take down the feedback of residents himself and write in to the relevant agencies on the next work day") for years, has been effective and does not have a reason to change.

I wonder if their residents actually feel the same. Maybe that's why we are hearing more and more grouses from WP constituencies.

Anyway, so do tell us Bernard, what then is your actual position on the issue (of having a govt agency staff follow the MPs of any party on their walk-abouts in their constituency)?

Do you think it's a good thing or a bad thing? Are you able to clarify your position and the WP's position on this practice?

Or are you going to learn from your big boss and say "... neither did I say the Good Ting or the Bad Ting..."??

Meh...so much for the vaulted blue hammer that wants to be the co-driver, checker, empower your future  blah blah blah...

In reality, it is an broken hammer without any principles and is unable and/or unwilling to take a principled and definitive stand on any issue, except to bend towards wherever popular sentiment seems to be heading.

"We have no stand b'cos we neither said the Good Ting or Bad Ting".
