Gomez-Gate

finally. closure on the James Gomez issue. it was stupid on 2 counts.

firstly, it was stupid that James Gomez let loose on the ED staff the way he did. of course, bringing it up during their campaigning only served to make it worse.

but that was not half as stupid as what the PAP did. coming down like a tonne of bricks on James Gomez probably cost PAP a good number of votes. it completely undid the image that PAP is more consultative, more approachable that is in touch with the people. if anything, it made PAP seem like a big bully. now big bullies aren't very approachable now are they? and the only times bullies touch the people around them is to hurt them.

if anything, the PAP leadership should learn from Khaw Boon Wan. being more placid would serve to tamper the image of arrogance that PAP currently has.

well... in any case, it is good that the matter has come to an end. WP would do well to not give PAP even the slightest whiff of dirty linen to grab hold of, continue to work the ground, groom its new and young members (such as Glenda Han and Chia Ti Lik). if they suceed in doing that, then i'm sure that they will do better in the next GE. which i hope i'll get to vote. grr... darn stupid opposition, come and challenge the PAP in the west.
