Dear Pritam, that was a first-class rebuttal to the COP’s recommendations! It gives light to the consequent recommendations made. I thank you for your intellect, clarity and fortitude. If the matter goes to court, I am confident that you will be exonerated of the allegations made and it will cement your reputation as a formidable leader of the opposition. I dream of a future when we have a mature electorate that truly values genuine, independent and patriotic leaders such as yourself. You inspire us against apathy. Stay strong but more importantly stay safe..for all our sakes. God Bless!
This is amazing: Pradeep made such an eloquent well spoken comment and (as is typical for singapore matters) some uneducated lapdog called Grace Lim responds in the most brash and flippant manner, in painfully broken English.
PAP voters are scared their wealth will simply vanish if PAP is not the govt. I wonder why the stuck themselves to the 60-80s era. Are they blind that the 4G PAP of today does not have the same attribute of the founding fathers? A simple GE congratulatory speech can also fumble. How?

He is not getting "punished" for her lie. He is getting "punished" for GUIDING her to continue with the lie. That is his actions, his call. And in the first place, he hasn't been punished yet has he? He's been referred to the public prosecutor so he can make his case in full. Why is that a punishment? 🤔
@@wchunh here punishment refers to his removal as wp’s head. Secondly he hasn’t guided her to lie. He told her to be honest about her lie, which she didn’t, so no he hasn’t done anything wrong.

I dont understand why ET was so defensive of RK lies, it is a trap? Looking back at his line of questioning I think it is. So no matter what PAP plan to dish out in Parliament, I standby without flickering, my total support for WP or any opposition parties. You simply cannot give PAP a blank check.
I'm not a supporter of both parties but your comment really make sense to me...especially how these bunch of incompetent useless clowns handle the pandemic....
@@rslin4888 Yeah agree with you that it will not do S'pore any good. How about what VB initially told Singapore about the Trace Together app? What's your esteem opinion?
Pritam is respectable and his integrity remains intact; he's a victim of this "witch-hunt". The ruling party will get their karma and what's due to them in due course.
it is always tough being opposition, I salute these opposition representative who cared to step forward to serve as opp to give diff voices...thank you
Of course it’s tough fighting against an entire bunch of useless idiots who love to enjoy the benefits from the dictator head and his squandering partner who is worse than the neighbouring counterparts. If there were magic, a wand is enough to rid them all.
Please Singaporeans. Think of the True and Humble and Really Nice CHIAM SEE TONG who Ruled POTONG PASIR for Many Years. BEWARE OF POLITICAL SCAM. Fight for Self or Fight for Country. Why a Person wants to Save himself for a LIE?

The 3 jokers were abetting her. Where were they from 8th Aug to 4th Oct?in case of Pritam, 3rd Oct. No contact with her and they didn't even discuss this matter. You believe it?
@@rslin4888 I believe that the wp leadership told RK to act blur and see if they can get away with it . But ultimately there is no proof . Only RK ‘s testimony which is worthless . So Imo there should be no police investigation as it would be a waste of time. Morally the wp leadership failed big time .
@@rslin4888 They were too gracious to her, giving her too much time to discuss with her family. They were sympathetic to her trauma as a rape victim. I wouldn't have given that time to consider, but I don't fault them for it either.
@@iMattCi89 Are you sure that they are that gracious? Did any one of them call her from 8 Aug till 4th Oct? Did they check whether she talk to her family. Did the 3 of them even talk with each other to check the progress? The answer is NO. Is it normal behaviour?
Going by the WhatsApp messages between them released, the leaders do give the impression that they want her to bring it to the grave if undetected. Now that this is out in public view, PS is pushing to her saying she is mentally unsound and politically disenchanted to discredit her so what she said will not hold water against them. It's like in the corporate world you whistle-blow your boss and he come out saying you are a poor job performer to discredit you so the company will not take you seriously.
WAH 😫 SO SERIOUS! Country gone? Country in shambles if opposition members not fixed? Countries in the rest of the world change their government as and when the people don’t feel confident and unhappy about never go down, why? SG confirm will be destroyed with opposition parties? Pay millions of dollars to fix opposition, not the economy & societal problems to raise the general living conditions of the public will not lead to country in shambles?
@@fiost1489 These countries still surviving, not on bankruptcy list. US, UK, France, Italy, Taiwan, S Korea, Japan, Thailand, …… Their leaders are always a different person. Have their economies collapsed?
i really dont understand how PAP gets away with this over and over. how on earth do they think the rest of singapore is not aware of their disgusting attempts to blame WP? they just wanna get rid of the opposition leader as they've done multiple times in the past. i really hope voters open their eyes the next election. this dictatorship is getting out of hand
All this is an attempt to deflect the publics attention from the very real issues that are outstanding in our lives. Building a 4th tower at MBS , upgrades at RWS and a renewal of the F1 agreement. It is good that SG gov is akin to progress and the revival of the economy but truely they have paraded their lack of ethics and morality with this whole fiasco. PS is a threat to their power and control. A power and control that is given by the people in trust and hope. Unfortunately they are also betraying that trust over and over again
Just thinking, it may be the case where people mis-interpret words. just an analogy if a frog hires a scorpion to take it across the river, and the frog says "I trust you to do your job", the frog may think the job is to take the frog across river, while to the scorpion, the job may be its nature to sting any prey. when PS tells RK to do the right thing, PS may be thinking about correcting the lie; while RK may think it is to continue lying. sometimes, sentences may be interpreted differently. And from what PS is arguing here, it is a "she say, he say" situation, and COP decide to only take a proven liar words? and honestly speaking, she already left the parliament - is there so much need to spend so much effort on this matter? It is also better for RK future if ppl can just forget about this episode - she's still a young lady that can learn from this and correct herself I will think Singapore govt has more pressing matters. I rather they spend the time debating GST raises, budget, etc. Is Singapore not facing enough challenges for them to have time to do this circus? Covid over already is it? Budget no issues right - so can don't raise GST? If you have time to write a 1000+ page report, please spend time finding ways to improve Singaporeans lives
u are absolutely right. making RK saga a national issue does not contribute to our economy n worse of all World Leaders are watching n laughing at Parluament members.
Oh! RK remark that she accompanied the victim of rape to the police station WILL COLLAPSE SG economy? Millions of dollars 💵 💸 paid to a bunch of useless clowns to run the country won’t bankrupt the nation? All SGs will suffer with such idiots. Thanks to the diligent SGs working on the ground for survival contributing to the economy. Many countries change their government like garments never fail.
So Ivan Lim is an MP now? Who cares about him now. Hes not an MP & never get pay collected from taxpayer E issue now is an MP "confirmed" lie in parliament. Then leaders did nothing for months. & e leaders dun hav any proof they ask khan to come clean. On e other hand Khan had msg to her guys tat PS told her to "take it to her grave". Of cos i had no issue is Khan or e 3 leaders r nt collecting MP or even additional Leader of opp allowance, but... they did right? Who do u believe? Or call out Ivan Lim again?
I believe in the truth. To put WP to task by having them to explain in parliament while any failures of the PAP swept under the carpet really shows what is the truth. Parliament "AIR" time should best used for debating policies. RK lying shld be for the courts.
@@karlsontham What about lies in the past about HDB being an appreciating asset? Lies about opposition ward turned into slum, lies about mask was not required at the initial onslaught of pandemic. Lies when repeated ad nauseous, people bought into it as truth at their own monumental expenses. Did Singaporeans suffer lies spurned by RK, I doubt a single cent was loss as a result of her making up stories, but she was already punished. You people are still throwing stone in your own glass house. Move on already. Singaporeans have many bread and butter issues to be concerned about, like GST hike, lost of jobs, massive immigrations, pandemic, medical, transportation, insufficient CPF...etc and all these naggy problems were accumulated from poor policies for many years, and still being talked about at every budget speeches. Instead, why spend the entire air time hounding WP for blood in parliament instead of addressing the main issues affecting Singaporean livelidhood? Where is the proportion and priority of airtime, meant to solve Singaporeans problems in this regard? May be, resources spend on COP, is better used to address why it took so long to find a PM successor.
@@nightowl4121 i dun look into all those problems u say here. But arent we talkin abt tis case here. But afew things. 1 Taiwan hold back on exporting mask to spore in e initial phase. Certain white lies have to make to let e front line workers had it 1st & stop certain panick buying. I remember panicked buying fr mask then. E rest of us r dead if frontline is down. So i’m ok wif mask part 2 hdb. 99 year lease alreadi tells u tat its not forever? Which country do that? It state 99lease for a reason if u cant understand i also cant help u. But b4 99 its an asset right? If u buy is called freehold n they take it back fm u then i think is nt right 3 if u wanna talk abt spore raising cost. Pls look into whether is a whole world issue now or onli spore problem? If its onli spore them blame govern no prob lah. 4 gst hike i fulli agree. Cos spore is slowly becomin an aging population n if govern wanna do more on medical coverage or spend $ on covering parents to bear more kids they nid $ or etc etc. Tis is e path to go. If go Rich tax route e rich will onli migrate. But if is gst, e rich normalli will spend more $ than e poor. Like buying multiple landed properties, cars, food, bags etc. Tis is another way of them paying more tax daily but they wun feel it. Govern can then gave certain payout to e poorer families. So somehow if solves not all but some issue fr e poor I can onli say. Pap wun be perfect n never will be. Cos spore is too small to hav everything. U cant hav all food made in spore. Taiwan during new year time even had egg shortage. Pls jus look @ other countries n compare if we r better or realli worst off. I’m also an opp supporter last time. After watching afew full parliament session. I realli feel ashamed why i cast vote without seeing their performance. Why i onli see short clips of wat people who had a motive to wanna show mi wat they wanna show mi. Thus nowadays i dun do tat anymore… Last time i also laugh @ pap say ponding issues. Then i saw malaysia recently. Spore realli ponding n nt flooding. Compare to similar HK fr property. R we realli tat worse off. Even tw r worse of in terms of property prices as compared to salary.

U’ll feel proud being sporean. P.S. jus dun expect perfect govern.
Its ridiculous, are the majority PAP hearing themselves...if the 2 wp leaders are to be referred to the public prosecutors to be proven guilty then why is everyone or rather pm and his mahority of loyal cadres speaking in such a way that they had oredi condemned the wp leaders as guilty as only presented by the COP findings? No matter how credible the findings are, it isn't their business to lead or insinuate these collective judgements. That's gaslighting or bullying to say the worst. If honesty were to be upheld so should justice and fairness. Guilty or not, fair trial and the full legal instruments n processes should be made available to the wp before such strong condemning overtures be made.
The findings are already clear that these people are heading into criminal territory. The only thing is who to execute the punishment. Do it in parliament, some opposition supporters will say not fair and PAP bully them. So best leave it to the judges to decide. And if they too agree with COP findings, the judges will give out the punishments. Hope this clarifies.
LHL: FIXING THE OPPOSITION Without a doubt, going to court will seal GUILTY on PS & FM and a minimum fine of $5000. PS, FM & SL cannot stand for election.

PS is a victim of RK's lies. Her body language during the trial was a dead giveaway that she was lying. In her 'I'm so poor thing, pity me' voice. She has single handedly destroyed what past WP leaders worked so hard to achieve. A fine is too good for her. If she's looking for a new job, maybe she can become an online scammer.

MP RK who lied must fsce the sentencing n not her colleagues. So does it mean if a PAP MP lies in parliament then the leader of PAP too will face sentencing
After so many long sessions "interrogated" by ET, and finally, now Pritam Singh has a chance to register his ground and stated ill-treatment and unfairness by the COP. I have to salute him for being a leader of the opposition party. really not easy for him to fight against the PAP troops.
Pritam Singh is a respectable leader. This incident proves his leadership and his ability to handle the most difficult situation. Such quality is our great fortune. Hope this leader stays in the politics and continue serves the country. PAP should help the country to preserve such talents.

From the way he makes arguments and puts his point out across clearly so everyone can understand, singh is a formidable opposition opponent that the ruling party has not had to deal with in a long time. He is too dangerous for them. So this this their one and only chance, get rid or smear him, and force the WP to replace him with the previous harmless one or any other current managable one. Politics 101!
Haha, he is like a snake. Full of lies. Why say unclear things like " I won't judge you"? And the 3 of them disappeared for a did 2 months. No contact. Haha, SL news "Black out." Childish.Insulting our intelligience

@@simonchua2921 true! Some people are either too dumb or a die hard blind supporter of the ruling gang that they only focus and highlight on the one phrase PS made and blame him for everything while ignoring the full speech where he explains how he has been made the scapegoat.

@@gracelim2336 i really did not see real evidence, that he had told RK to lie. Listening to the speech from wp, in totality, not in bits, i did not see anywhere PS ask RK to lie. The case against PS isn't that strong.

PM Lee stated earlier this afternoon that 'integrity is the linchpin of democracy' so why, in the first instance, had the COP regarded RK - a proven liar's one-sided comment about 'taking the lie to the grave' as the gospel truth? And how could a good leader bear to press upon his colleague, an alleged rape victim, into divulging her past asap even before telling her parents? The thought processes and execution takes time. Yes, PS had taken too long but if you were in his shoes, would you have pushed her into revealing her traumatic experience sooner? PS has already done what a compassionate leader should have done. I believe him.
"Beware of politicians who train citizens to look upon insolence as democracy, lawlessness as liberty, impudence of speech as equality, and licence to do what they please as happiness. Instead a govt which detests such and punishes such men makes all citizens better and wiser." - Isocrates Don't you think WP needs more mature, rational and critical thinking supporters? Instead the supporters now are a bunch of Champion Grumblers who complain, bitch, point finger and blame govt for everything.
@@jeangian1781 Your reading comprehension rather poor, leh. Isn't it always the Opposition politicians who are making false accusations, lies and false narratives about abundance of liberty, equality and happiness once you vote them in? It ever occur to you that because Opposition supporters are such inconsiderate jerks, liars and arseholes that we need such laws?
When GE comes, i hope we will remember the unnecessary hiking prices for this year onwards. Also rember that instead of dealing with more important issues, they wasted time and resources over stupid Raeesah Khan and tried to bring the whole opposition down in one fell swoop. No class at all.. theyre getting desperate
Exactly, if Khan told the lie, she has to take responsibility for it. She is an MP. Why expect the WP leadership to do for her? And PS has given her time to do it in view she was the victim of the assault case. When I heard the COP sessions, I was disappointed. Instead of questioning and finding the answers from Khan, who is the culprit, it went after PS.
People are sick of RK , supporters and non supporters alike. WP may not be shaken or weaken so easily , but may in fact gain more supporters.. those on the fence. Looking back , the late WP leader JB was ushered out of parliament, then came another leader LTK who won a grc , next came PS , another grc was added to the trophies , east coast almost came close ,and this will be a hattrick .
I used to sit on the fence and has been a supporter of the ruling party but this entire saga and how PAP tried to blow this out of proportion with an outright agenda to discredit PS and his party has really changed my view about the ruling party. The way how PS has been subjected to such baseless interrogations and accusations especially ET earlier is really disgusting. After all, the issue lies with RK and that she should be held accountable but yet the ruling party seems to harp on the fact that the entire WP is in the wrong. I do have more respect for PS in the way he handles the saga. Frankly, it's such a waste of public resources and taxpayers money that the ruling party is spending so much time trying to think of ways to prosecute the WP rather than focusing on the current issues that truly matters to the people. PS, do stay strong, you do have another supporter now.
Did you read the COP report? It is based on the facts undisputed by both sides. It is pretty damning on PS and WP from my view. That WP is okay with a untruth in parliament UNLESS it was asked is ADMITTED by PS. How can you vote for a politician or party like that? Is our parliament a circus to you?
As a layman . Born in singapore ,served my national service now coming to 60yrs old. What i hv found indeed worker party now have a very talented people who are compassionate and also have input good ideals to our singopre ecomomy. So as a singaporean bred here and lived for my past 60 over years. We need worker party to be present to help the ecomomy. Just because of one lousy MP RK telling lies thats her own personal problem created so much problem not only to singaporean but also to our future economy. Young MP should know about singapore history Thank u
Glad to the voice of a baby boomer. Very few baby boomers would speak against the incumbent government. Please do your National service of garnering more votes to the opposition members for the greater good of the SGs and the economy. 😊
@@sgboon Why a 2 solid months absence by the 3 leaders? Any reason you can think of? They didn't check on her and they don't even ask each other about her. But SL and Faizal said they left it to PS. What kind of leaders are these? SL on a news black out? You believe?
You have done a very good job Pritam Singh. Jealousy of your growing popularity by the PAP resulted in this conspiracy by the PAP to fix-up a better man.
For people who support political motions blindly... Describe what and how, Pritam Singh and Faisal Manap stand to gain from maintaining a sloppy lie from Reeasah Khan. On top of that, a lie which the civil service (police) in question is able to counter check the claims as easily as catching criminals in a day like in crime watch. Which both PS and FM know that its a matter of time before the facts emerge... Shanmugam already said in parliament that RK's claims will be checked with the police. PS and FM are seasoned politicians... they know whats coming if they maintain a lie. Seems like RK is the only liar.
@@fiost1489 you see... these are conspiracy theories that derive conclusions from 1 or 2 pieces of facts, without looking at the totality of the matter. For example the fake moon landing conspiracy. The US flag fluttered when it was planted on the moon. So the theorist hone in on that and claimed that the video was taken on earth as the moon has no atmosphere. Flat earthers claim that the earth is flat becoz you can only stand on a ball on the top, if you go to the sides or bottom you'd fall off. PS and FM allowed RK time to settle her issue inspite of conspiracy theorist hogging for answers. Not that PS and FM were trying to get away, they simply had no choice but to give her space. This is true leadership and not a cut throat leader.
@@vecspace thats how a common person would think... not seasoned politicians like PS and FM. WP know PAP will lambast them every opportunity they got if WP slip up. They had to balance the respect for RK at that time and negate trouble up ahead. The logical step is to wait as the ball was in RK's court.
Such a clear, composed and well delivered response against a report by a COP that’s overwhelmingly comprised of political opponents. This is our story of David and Goliath in Singapore. May truth and fairness prevail.
Highly impossible for truth and fairness to prevail when PS is surrounded by a pack of devouring wolves in waiting. SGs must keep eyes wide open to see how the truth is destroyed and never to allow it to happen again. Action
I didn't watch the debate at all. But let me guess, no PAP MP spoke in favour of or for WP? Please someone tell me I am wrong. Was it even a debate among PAP MPs on the motion? Or did every one of the PAP MPs who spoke, spoke in favour of the motion and against the WP? As someone rightly said, "the system will fail if trust is eroded and lost". Is trust in PAP being eroded and lost by their MPs in this debate?
It is Deja vu. Where do the members of the COP come from, largely? To me, the principle - "Justice must be seen to be done" has not been satisfied. How I wish the ruling government would start utilizing scarce state resources on things that truly matters to us, the citizens. Remember please, we vote you in and pay you handsomely and excessively to do real work.
When children go wrong blame the parents, when students go wrong blame the teacher, when party members go wrong blame the party leader…. When the citizens go wrong… blame the government & leaders 😅😅😅
This is a no issue to common folks battling high cost of living due to overpaid civil servants. When covid struck, people bear the pain while civil servants’ benefits were protected and now more tax to keep their gains. Sick country.
well we all should know by now; after watching this Political Raiders; in 21st century- is naive to think we can find a party or even a single people representative to enter political , solely and wholeheartedly for the purpose of serving and improving people live before self !
I believe in order to get the fairest result judgement, we may need to follow like HONG KONG system which randomly pick people in public to listen all the facts and come out the verdict.
RK is probably NOT a victim of sexual assault... I think that was a facade used to buy sympathy and a safe passage out of such a nuclear outcome - that decimated Singapore's core opposition to PAP for at least 20 years! Basically, let this be a lesson for all political parties in Singapore - that select your leadership very carefully, you select an RK - you get RK-like outcomes. RIP Singapore opposition...
Dear Pritam, Be careful who you let on your ship because some people will sink the whole ship just because they can’t be the captain. P.s. do excuse Raeesah Khan as she didn’t realise she was a pawn to get you.
Ms Khan could have sold out the 3 of them to save her own skin. Imagine lying in Parliament and getting fined $35K. No prison time, no SERIOUS consequences.
@@richardchung7198 I have said previously- Raeesah Khan should have taken one for the team. Her political career is gone anyway and not as if she can’t afford $35k as she is from a wealthy family. By shouldering the responsibility all by herself, she would have limited the damage to herself solely. Instead, she pulled the entire WP leadership with her and earning infamy for a long time to come. Pritam has defended her before during the last GE and this is how she shows her gratitude.
@@fiost1489 COP discarded WP submitted documents, didn't put to public scrutiny.. That tells of ones credibility..Open all Docs to PP n Judges, who are bind bound by Spore Laws
RK was emotionally unstable , I remember in reporters meeting before the election where she was apologising in public for racism. She was angered and very emotional. It clearly understood that she had gone through something that she should not have undergone.
PS should just come clean.. his efforts to rebuke only makes him look worse. While I understand the need in his position to fight back even when there’s no bullets left, it takes a real man to know when to stand down when the game is long over.
What this woman that lies that says "take it to your grave" is nothing but circumstantial. That is what the lier says, and these smart people believe? Or select to believe?
How could we ever understand why you, SL and Fizal disappeared from 8th Aug till 3rd Oct. No contact with RK. No contact amongst the 3 of you. Too fishy . And " I will not judge you"?
I am not worry about Pritam. He is a warrior...hope he can clear his name with new evidences and cross examinations...the person I worry is Faisal Manap...He really need to think how the prosecutors are going to grill him. This are not Minister Sir or Mr Tong or Mr. Chairman to give reply as 'I really don't know as I was in a shocked state...'
Does misleading the public in parliament constitute a lie? If not, then RK is innocent. If yes, than Indranee is many times more guilty. Let me address Indranee's speech point for point. 1. The remit of the COP was to find out why RK lied. They did not find out why she lied. She confessed to lying but did not explain why she lied. Was she paid to lie and by whom? Or is she just a pathological liar who cannot control her need to lie. The COP has not provided the answers. 2. Indranee admitted the remit was not to look into the 3 WP leadership. That's why it's being referred to the PP. Why then is she casting aspersions on the WP leaders to influence the judiciary even before they've decided to take on the case? 3. She said the interview took so long because of the witness. I don't think she watched any of the interviews. Pritam provided his testimony. Edwin Tong tried to change his testimony a hundred ways with a hundred different hypothetical questions because he didn't like Pritam's answers. That's what happened, Indranee. 4. She said the 3 leader's didn't need legal council because Pritam and Sylvia are lawyers. What about Manap? If he had a lawyer next to him, he wouldn't have made the mistake of saying he refused to answer an irrelevant question. He would have just said, "can't recall", which is impossible to prove otherwise. 5. Indranee did not address the fact that 4 critical paragraphs were not included in the report that include the words, " can't lie, right?" and RK's answer, "right". Indranee did not commit to putting those 4 paragraphs in the COP report which the accused party deemed critical 6. The WPs DP is not the business of the PAP. Why does Indranee cast aspersions on the inner workings of an opposition party duly elected by their constituents? Did any opposition party cast aspersions on the PAP when one of their MP was caught having an affair with a married staff member? No. Why can't the PAP treat the WP and their constituents with the same respect? Do their votes mean nothing? At the end of the day, the COP failed miserably in the eyes of all Singaporeans. They failed to show WHY RK lied which was their only remit. Was she paid to lie and by whom? Or was she a pathological liar who cannot stop herself from lying? The old catch phrase, " take it to the grave" has now been replaced by a new one. " Can't lie, right? Right." That's all the guidance Pritam needs to give to RK, a 28 year old mother with two children. Any mother would teach their children not to lie. Pritam has already agreed to testify before the PP. Will Edwin Tong and Indranee do the same? Or will they invoke parliamentary privilege? That will be the mother of all ironies.
The leaders should bravely state that Sg will always be a one party state forever and ever. Call a spade a spade. That is the truth. Sg will have no face on the world stage.
Save your breath in the courts. If you are innocent you have nothing to fear and should be happy to go. Save parliament time to discuss this lying matter. Save tax payers money also. I would suggest WP to take this matter off line and rush to the courts. I would think this is a fair outcome than discuss this in the parliament which I foresee would be no end this would drag on longer than anyone can expect. Waste of time.
It just take 1 RK to destroy a Party that the late JB Jeyaratnam has fight for until the end. ONE RK, to put down the aspiration of large population of Singapore, for an alternative view. PAP voters votes for continuity even if it pains them like 9% GST. Opposition voters votes because we believe there are alternative ways to issue. To keep increasing tax faster than increasing basic salary con only last for awhile. That's why PAP style of putting down WP is worrisome. It's a "he said, she said" fest fight right now. PAP doesn't want the truth. Such is Politics.
PS brought the trouble to himself and is the one to blame since RK was never the MP material and has problems before she was elected and yet PS covered up for her. Now ppl trying to blame PAP for the own trouble he himself brought shows how blind his supporters are. Frankly speaking all he need to do was to apologise or report for the mistake RK did long again and not waste everyone time and effort esp when RK told him that she lied either in parliament or before the next parliament if she is uncomfortable for the matter to be discussed in parliament. For him being the fluent speaker and only twist and turn words to cover up his mistake for his naive supporters. I hope to think that we have better oppositions in future who do proper check and balance for the government and not ownself cover own mistake.
Worker's Party's leader is commenting too much about PAP rather than explaining how Parliamentarians can better represent their communities and country.
Of course, when you are persecuted you need to speak up. I hope that all PAP MPs speak up on matters in of importance including on GST raise henceforth. Party whip or no party whip.
They are not only commenting too much on pap but they are not serving residents' interests . Disregarding 227 serangoon and not serving residents of my blk equally. Stoop real low indeed

Dear Pritam, that was a first-class rebuttal to the COP’s recommendations! It gives light to the consequent recommendations made. I thank you for your intellect, clarity and fortitude. If the matter goes to court, I am confident that you will be exonerated of the allegations made and it will cement your reputation as a formidable leader of the opposition. I dream of a future when we have a mature electorate that truly values genuine, independent and patriotic leaders such as yourself. You inspire us against apathy.

Going by the WhatsApp messages between them released, the leaders do give the impression that they want her to bring it to the grave if undetected. Now that this is out in public view, PS is pushing to her saying she is mentally unsound and politically disenchanted to discredit her so what she said will not hold water against them.

when PS tells RK to do the right thing, PS may be thinking about correcting the lie; while RK may think it is to continue lying. sometimes, sentences may be interpreted differently.
And from what PS is arguing here, it is a "she say, he say" situation, and COP decide to only take a proven liar words? and honestly speaking, she already left the parliament - is there so much need to spend so much effort on this matter? It is also better for RK future if ppl can just forget about this episode - she's still a young lady that can learn from this and correct herself
I will think Singapore govt has more pressing matters. I rather they spend the time debating GST raises, budget, etc. Is Singapore not facing enough challenges for them to have time to do this circus? Covid over already is it?

Singaporeans have many bread and butter issues to be concerned about, like GST hike, lost of jobs, massive immigrations, pandemic, medical, transportation, insufficient CPF...etc and all these naggy problems were accumulated from poor policies for many years, and still being talked about at every budget speeches. Instead, why spend the entire air time hounding WP for blood in parliament instead of addressing the main issues affecting Singaporean livelidhood?

3 if u wanna talk abt spore raising cost. Pls look into whether is a whole world issue now or onli spore problem? If its onli spore them blame govern no prob lah.
4 gst hike i fulli agree. Cos spore is slowly becomin an aging population n if govern wanna do more on medical coverage or spend $ on covering parents to bear more kids they nid $ or etc etc. Tis is e path to go. If go Rich tax route e rich will onli migrate. But if is gst, e rich normalli will spend more $ than e poor. Like buying multiple landed properties, cars, food, bags etc. Tis is another way of them paying more tax daily but they wun feel it. Govern can then gave certain payout to e poorer families. So somehow if solves not all but some issue fr e poor
I can onli say. Pap wun be perfect n never will be. Cos spore is too small to hav everything. U cant hav all food made in spore. Taiwan during new year time even had egg shortage.

Its ridiculous, are the majority PAP hearing themselves...if the 2 wp leaders are to be referred to the public prosecutors to be proven guilty then why is everyone or rather pm and his mahority of loyal cadres speaking in such a way that they had oredi condemned the wp leaders as guilty as only presented by the COP findings?
No matter how credible the findings are, it isn't their business to lead or insinuate these collective judgements. That's gaslighting or bullying to say the worst.
If honesty were to be upheld so should justice and fairness. Guilty or not, fair trial and the full legal instruments n processes should be made available to the wp before such strong condemning overtures be made.
The findings are already clear that these people are heading into criminal territory. The only thing is who to execute the punishment. Do it in parliament, some opposition supporters will say not fair and PAP bully them. So best leave it to the judges to decide. And if they too agree with COP findings, the judges will give out the punishments. Hope this clarifies.

I used to sit on the fence and has been a supporter of the ruling party but this entire saga and how PAP tried to blow this out of proportion with an outright agenda to discredit PS and his party has really changed my view about the ruling party. The way how PS has been subjected to such baseless interrogations and accusations especially ET earlier is really disgusting. After all, the issue lies with RK and that she should be held accountable but yet the ruling party seems to harp on the fact that the entire WP is in the wrong. I do have more respect for PS in the way he handles the saga. Frankly, it's such a waste of public resources and taxpayers money that the ruling party is spending so much time trying to think of ways to prosecute the WP rather than focusing on the current issues that truly matters to the people. PS, do stay strong, you do have another supporter now.
Did you read the COP report? It is based on the facts undisputed by both sides. It is pretty damning on PS and WP from my view. That WP is okay with a untruth in parliament UNLESS it was asked is ADMITTED by PS. How can you vote for a politician or party like that? Is our parliament a circus to you?

As a layman . Born in singapore ,served my national service now coming to 60yrs old.
What i hv found indeed worker party now have a very talented people who are compassionate and also have input good ideals to our singopre ecomomy. So as a singaporean bred here and lived for my past 60 over years. We need worker party to be present to help the ecomomy.
Just because of one lousy MP RK telling lies thats her own personal problem created so much problem not only to singaporean but also to our future economy.
Young MP should know about singapore history

You have done a very good job Pritam Singh. Jealousy of your growing popularity by the PAP resulted in this conspiracy by the PAP to fix-up a better man.
For people who support political motions blindly...
Describe what and how, Pritam Singh and Faisal Manap stand to gain from maintaining a sloppy lie from Reeasah Khan.
On top of that, a lie which the civil service (police) in question is able to counter check the claims as easily as catching criminals in a day like in crime watch.
Which both PS and FM know that its a matter of time before the facts emerge...
Shanmugam already said in parliament that RK's claims will be checked with the police.
PS and FM are seasoned politicians... they know whats coming if they maintain a lie.
Seems like RK is the only liar.
Why were they strangely absent from 8th Aug for a solid 2 months without communication?
@@fiost1489 you see... these are conspiracy theories that derive conclusions from 1 or 2 pieces of facts, without looking at the totality of the matter.
For example the fake moon landing conspiracy. The US flag fluttered when it was planted on the moon. So the theorist hone in on that and claimed that the video was taken on earth as the moon has no atmosphere.
Flat earthers claim that the earth is flat becoz you can only stand on a ball on the top, if you go to the sides or bottom you'd fall off.
PS and FM allowed RK time to settle her issue inspite of conspiracy theorist hogging for answers. Not that PS and FM were trying to get away, they simply had no choice but to give her space.
This is true leadership and not a cut throat leader.
@@k54122

They hope with time it get forgotten.
@@vecspace thats how a common person would think... not seasoned politicians like PS and FM.
WP know PAP will lambast them every opportunity they got if WP slip up. They had to balance the respect for RK at that time and negate trouble up ahead. The logical step is to wait as the ball was in RK's court.
I find tt this COP report shadowed the GST increase
That how they increase GST 9%
If PS is removed by PAP, I can gaurantee no seat for Singapore in democracy summit ever.
Who cares? You believe in those things?
Get your stomach full first
dem. summit is just a farcacial move by america who literally invade othr place for oil
Such a clear, composed and well delivered response against a report by a COP that’s overwhelmingly comprised of political opponents. This is our story of David and Goliath in Singapore. May truth and fairness prevail.
Highly impossible for truth and fairness to prevail when PS is surrounded by a pack of devouring wolves in waiting.
SGs must keep eyes wide open to see how the truth is destroyed and never to allow it to happen again. Action
I didn't watch the debate at all. But let me guess, no PAP MP spoke in favour of or for WP? Please someone tell me I am wrong. Was it even a debate among PAP MPs on the motion? Or did every one of the PAP MPs who spoke, spoke in favour of the motion and against the WP? As someone rightly said, "the system will fail if trust is eroded and lost". Is trust in PAP being eroded and lost by their MPs in this debate?
The NMPs are also in favour of sending Pritam and FM to the prosecutor.
They ate non aligned
@@fiost1489 thanks. I was wondering how the NMP voted and if any PAP MP abstained or voted against.
Thank you my MR, PRiTam Singh,im from WP's group🤵 🔑🌊🗝🏇
It is Deja vu. Where do the members of the COP come from, largely? To me, the principle - "Justice must be seen to be done" has not been satisfied.
How I wish the ruling government would start utilizing scarce state resources on things that truly matters to us, the citizens. Remember please, we vote you in and pay you handsomely and excessively to do real work.
Apparently they reward themselves vastly to stay in power.

well we all should know by now; after watching this Political Raiders;
in 21st century- is naive to think we can find a party or even a single people representative to enter political , solely and wholeheartedly for the purpose of serving and improving people live before self !

Looks difficult.The timeline shows too many gaps
so what is the liar ex MP doing right now? who would dare to employ her?
Is her husband rich?
RK is probably NOT a victim of sexual assault... I think that was a facade used to buy sympathy and a safe passage out of such a nuclear outcome - that decimated Singapore's core opposition to PAP for at least 20 years!
Basically, let this be a lesson for all political parties in Singapore - that select your leadership very carefully, you select an RK - you get RK-like outcomes. RIP Singapore opposition...
A good man once said, n I quote, "Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone". Unquote!
If like that, everyone can be a Parliamentarian
All the more the PAP guys are happier to throw every single stone on hands. Look at the number of votes.
The accusations against PS & FM are based on a liar's testimony
Did you look at the way Faizal testify?
Very painful to watch. Acting blur plus he is actually incapable. Vice chairman of WP.
Wow
@@fiost1489 what is he incapable of
Dear Pritam,
Be careful who you let on your ship because some people will sink the whole ship just because they can’t be the captain.
P.s. do excuse Raeesah Khan as she didn’t realise she was a pawn to get you.
Ms Khan could have sold out the 3 of them to save her own skin. Imagine lying in Parliament and getting fined $35K. No prison time, no SERIOUS consequences.
@@richardchung7198 I have said previously- Raeesah Khan should have taken one for the team. Her political career is gone anyway and not as if she can’t afford $35k as she is from a wealthy family. By shouldering the responsibility all by herself, she would have limited the damage to herself solely. Instead, she pulled the entire WP leadership with her and earning infamy for a long time to come. Pritam has defended her before during the last GE and this is how she shows her gratitude.
You want this kind of captain?
@@fiost1489 and why not?

RK was emotionally unstable , I remember in reporters meeting before the election where she was apologising in public for racism. She was angered and very emotional. It clearly understood that she had gone through something that she should not have undergone.
WP should have dropped her then. A liability has turned into scandal

PS should just come clean.. his efforts to rebuke only makes him look worse. While I understand the need in his position to fight back even when there’s no bullets left, it takes a real man to know when to stand down when the game is long over.
What this woman that lies that says "take it to your grave" is nothing but circumstantial. That is what the lier says, and these smart people believe? Or select to believe?

Why she got away with so little punishment. Did her lies turn into favourable weapons for others? Did she gained any favour by further lying? 🤔

I guess the 3 leaders are in the same category
Very eloquent speaker
How could we ever understand why you, SL and Fizal disappeared from 8th Aug till 3rd Oct.
No contact with RK.
No contact amongst the 3 of you.
Too fishy .
And " I will not judge you"?
I am not worry about Pritam. He is a warrior...hope he can clear his name with new evidences and cross examinations...the person I worry is Faisal Manap...He really need to think how the prosecutors are going to grill him. This are not Minister Sir or Mr Tong or Mr. Chairman to give reply as 'I really don't know as I was in a shocked state...'
Faizal is our potential foreign minister. He can't understand simple questions.
Vice chairman of WP.
Tragedy
he stood by his party member, something that people should learn - whether right or wrong
He stood by with a solid 2 months communication black out with her🤣🤣🤣
East Coast and West Coast will be gone in 2025.
hopefully. West coast if not for bald headed minister, would have lost to PSP
Does misleading the public in parliament constitute a lie?
If not, then RK is innocent.
If yes, than Indranee is many times more guilty.
Let me address Indranee's speech point for point.
1. The remit of the COP was to find out why RK lied. They did not find out why she lied. She confessed to lying but did not explain why she lied. Was she paid to lie and by whom? Or is she just a pathological liar who cannot control her need to lie. The COP has not provided the answers.
2. Indranee admitted the remit was not to look into the 3 WP leadership. That's why it's being referred to the PP. Why then is she casting aspersions on the WP leaders to influence the judiciary even before they've decided to take on the case?
3. She said the interview took so long because of the witness. I don't think she watched any of the interviews. Pritam provided his testimony. Edwin Tong tried to change his testimony a hundred ways with a hundred different hypothetical questions because he didn't like Pritam's answers. That's what happened, Indranee.
4. She said the 3 leader's didn't need legal council because Pritam and Sylvia are lawyers. What about Manap? If he had a lawyer next to him, he wouldn't have made the mistake of saying he refused to answer an irrelevant question. He would have just said, "can't recall", which is impossible to prove otherwise.
5. Indranee did not address the fact that 4 critical paragraphs were not included in the report that include the words, " can't lie, right?" and RK's answer, "right". Indranee did not commit to putting those 4 paragraphs in the COP report which the accused party deemed critical
6. The WPs DP is not the business of the PAP. Why does Indranee cast aspersions on the inner workings of an opposition party duly elected by their constituents? Did any opposition party cast aspersions on the PAP when one of their MP was caught having an affair with a married staff member? No. Why can't the PAP treat the WP and their constituents with the same respect? Do their votes mean nothing?
At the end of the day, the COP failed miserably in the eyes of all Singaporeans.
They failed to show WHY RK lied which was their only remit.
Was she paid to lie and by whom? Or was she a pathological liar who cannot stop herself from lying?
The old catch phrase, " take it to the grave" has now been replaced by a new one. " Can't lie, right? Right." That's all the guidance Pritam needs to give to RK, a 28 year old mother with two children. Any mother would teach their children not to lie.
Pritam has already agreed to testify before the PP. Will Edwin Tong and Indranee do the same? Or will they invoke parliamentary privilege? That will be the mother of all ironies.
The leaders should bravely state that Sg will always be a one party state forever and ever. Call a spade a spade. That is the truth. Sg will have no face on the world stage.
We are well respected in the world stage for having honest people running our country.
Lets not let him year this place down
Respected Pritam Singh
Save your breath in the courts. If you are innocent you have nothing to fear and should be happy to go. Save parliament time to discuss this lying matter. Save tax payers money also. I would suggest WP to take this matter off line and rush to the courts. I would think this is a fair outcome than discuss this in the parliament which I foresee would be no end this would drag on longer than anyone can expect. Waste of time.
PS is playing victim politics here
Well said.
It just take 1 RK to destroy a Party that the late JB Jeyaratnam has fight for until the end.
ONE RK, to put down the aspiration of large population of Singapore, for an alternative view.
PAP voters votes for continuity even if it pains them like 9% GST. Opposition voters votes because we believe there are alternative ways to issue.
To keep increasing tax faster than increasing basic salary con only last for awhile.
That's why PAP style of putting down WP is worrisome. It's a "he said, she said" fest fight right now. PAP doesn't want the truth. Such is Politics.
This is good way to not talk about GST increase at all and just go on non stop on what someone said
good to watch this again after 2 years as his case is ongoing
Don’t trust this tongue twister.
Spot on. Hard-core type
How can the COP regard RK's evidence as the gospel truth as she has confessed to be a liar?
Not to worry Mr Pritam Singh. The people’s court had already concluded that it was a political
PS brought the trouble to himself and is the one to blame since RK was never the MP material and has problems before she was elected and yet PS covered up for her. Now ppl trying to blame PAP for the own trouble he himself brought shows how blind his supporters are. Frankly speaking all he need to do was to apologise or report for the mistake RK did long again and not waste everyone time and effort esp when RK told him that she lied either in parliament or before the next parliament if she is uncomfortable for the matter to be discussed in parliament. For him being the fluent speaker and only twist and turn words to cover up his mistake for his naive supporters. I hope to think that we have better oppositions in future who do proper check and balance for the government and not ownself cover own mistake.
Opposition is not perfect but some opposition is always needed in any democracy. Otherwise might as well be a mini China.
Not perfect is okay. Lying under oath is not okay
Worker's Party's leader is commenting too much about PAP rather than explaining how Parliamentarians can better represent their communities and country.
They don't serve country. They serve themselves. Look at AHTC
Of course, when you are persecuted you need to speak up. I hope that all PAP MPs speak up on matters in of importance including on GST raise henceforth. Party whip or no party whip.
They are not only commenting too much on pap but they are not serving residents' interests . Disregarding 227 serangoon and not serving residents of my blk equally. Stoop real low indeed
