Speech at Hong Lim Park on Jobs and Unemployment
Dear Kin Lian
Hi, the full video recording of your speech at the Transitioning.org rally is up at this link:
If it's helpful, you can use it for your campaign.
If it's helpful, you can use it for your campaign.
Thanks for standing up for us Singaporeans! Wish you all the best for the election!
Time for remembering
Dear Kin Lian,
You probably (hopefully) can recall me as the person you helped in 2003.
My family and I are very grateful for the interim help you gave when circumstances were less favorable back then. Now that my boys are young adults and are working as professionals, I have told them about you.
Though many would have accused you of being dictatorial, I differ in my opinion. I told my friends where in the world can you find a CEO willing to personally read his emails and respond within 1 hour? Your action tells me you are different from the others.
Now is the time for remembering: Naturally we will give you our votes. I wish you best of success in this Presidential Elections.

Moon Represent my heart - 4 languages
Tan Kin Lian sung this song in 4 languages (Chinese, English, Malay and Tamil) at a charity concert for the Singapore Chinese Orchestra.
Moderate and independent
Mr Tan,
I read Yahoo about the forum held by TheOnlineCitizen. The sensitive topic of ISA was discussed and good that you kept your cool. I think you are picking up more supports by the day. Voters will be able to tell that you are moderate and more independent than the rest. TJS may garner strong supports online for the time being, but in the long run (the days ahead) things may turn to your favour. Keep your cool and focus in your programmes. So far, the rest are not composed in their agenda and so far nothing concrete from them. So, you are doing well and it takes time for voters to realise when comparisons are made each time a debate is held.
If you have the chance, do discuss about the pension of politicians. Retired politicians are enjoying their pensions. Does the "pension" scheme apply to those retired politician if they retired from Politics but took on other jobs (still active in employment)? The scheme is there for those who retired, then that sound logical. But, if the scheme is also enjoyed by those retired from politics but are working yet holding key positions, then is that logically fair? These are all tax payers money!
I am sure if you are elected as President, this is something you should look into. But for now, is there any of the Presidential Candidates who are enjoying such pensions while they are still actively employed? Well, bring it up in you debate and campaign and/or even rally. At least, you are not enjoying such pension. Cheers.

Silent majority
Dear Mr Tan
I know its going to be a tough fight ...
but please remember that there are many silent supporters rallying behind you ...
Singapore is sorely in need of a "independent" President with a "fighting" spirit...
Remember, you are the first to come up with the IDAC plan that forced a revolution in the car insurance industry ...
And with your many other accomplishments ...
Thus, it's no doubt you have the capability, foresight and hindsight to be a President ...

(By the way, I have also told all my relatives to vote for you)
