CSM id still new to the party. Let him learn the ropes and earn the respect through hard work and dedication. This should be the way and not some ah kua can become genderal in a few short years and then can become MP some more.
As the winner with the highest votes in this WP CEC election, Chen Show Mao shows that he has already earned the respect of the WP rank and file through his hard work and dedication and not by sucking up to Party Elders.
This should be the way and not some blur sotong face who can become CEC star in less than 2 years and then be anointed as NCMP over a party lao-cheow, after much bootlicking of party power brokers. How many votes did he get in this CEC election? Did that Deer-in-the-Headlight manage to win more votes than the ‘junior’, ‘inexperienced’, ‘unqualified’ Chen?
By giving Chen the highest votes despite being with the party for less than 2 years, the WP cadres are sending a strong and clear signal to the party power barons that they demand Chen to be made a key-decision maker in the Party leadership.
Yet, Low Thia Khiang is openly defying and abusing the wishes of his party members just as those Burmese military thugs belittling and disregarding their voters.
In any First World democracy, First World party, First World organization, First World committees, those with the highest number of votes would be holding key leadership positions in the management team.
But for Uniquely WP, the person with the highest votes is inexplicably excluded from the party leadership while the person who does not even dare to show her face/full name/resume is glaringly included. Where is the spirit of party democracy?
Does WP believe in One-Man-One-Vote system or Low-Man-All-Votes system? What is the point of holding party election when the wishes of the grassroot members are so openly trampled and rubbished by the Party Establishment.
