what comes around goes around



Mr Wang Says So in his 25th April's blog told us something about AWARE.
he said:

Founder member and former nominated member of parliament Kanwaljit Soin said: 'It is not just a woman's issue but the whole issue of how civil society actors behave in Singapore.

'If the new members do not agree with Aware's issues, then they should not join. There is plenty of room to start another organisation.'

He agree fully with her. In his opinion, the new Aware ExCo has no credibility. They deserve no respect.

Yes, the new ExCo team employed a certain strategy and they won the Aware election. And yes, their strategy was constitutional and legally "correct".
But it merely reminds him of the
PAP's gerrymandering tactics - the way they brazenly redrew the maps, changed the electoral boundaries to their own advantage, and forced their way to election victories.


Those PAP tactics were also constitutional and legally "correct". But those tactics carry no sense of integrity and deserve no respect. At any rate, they won't gain his respect.


He feel exactly the same way about how the new ExCo members have invaded Aware. Their tactics are as honorable as a terrorist attack.

As you probably know by now, the new ExCo chairperson is Josie Lau. She works at DBS, marketing credit cards. Today, for what it's worth, Mr Wang is going to make a small, symbolic gesture as a DBS customer.

He will call DBS and terminate his credit cards. The DBS person on the line will ask me why (they always ask for that kind of customer feedback). And he will say that it's because of their Head of Marketing, Josie Lau.

He will say that he have a very poor opinion of her behaviour in the Aware saga, and that for that reason, he has decided to stop using DBS credit cards. Furthermore he will request for his feedback to be given to DBS's senior management.
