No...i'm nt gonna say which party i'm supporting. No booing.. no criticizing. I'm a good citizen, obviously.
Election is such an exciting event!! Daddy is so v v concerned of the active democratic political scene in S'pore. Daddy will watch the news 4 times a day. Yes.. tt means channel U and channel 8 (both evening and nitetime slots). I can even memorize what the candidates are gonna say in their campaign rallies (when the videos are replayed in those news). Daddy din tell me which party he supported. Perhaps, he abides by the notion "Voting is SECRET". I cant 'dig' out any information from him. But, all i know is: Daddy is a fervant fan of the News programme.
Nowadays, S'poreans keep talking about this election (I din eavedrop.. they talked so loud till i could hear them so clearly *the duck gives an innocent look*) Usually, these people will reveal their feelings about certain parties - either criticizing or praising certain party. Then, when they realized tt they've spoken too much, they will suddenly keep quiet and say this cleverly "oh, but ... erm i wont say which party i'm voting for.. cos VOTING IS SECRET!" ( and give a smug look as if the others wont know who they will most likely be voting for after saying all those aggressive views).
The hottest and most happening hangouts are definitely ... the various neighbourhoods (where opposition party and PAP are contesting). Who cares abt pubs and clubs? Go meet ya favourite candidates at these neighbourhoods! They will be spotted sitting ard kopitiams and shaking hands with friendly S'poreans. C'mon man.. u can meet ya favourite candidates, shake their hands, get their autographs and enjoy a cup of kopi-O at less than a dollar! Its like the best deal!
Who says S'poreans are proud and ego bunch of ppl? What an accusation?! I have evidence to prove tt S'poreans are v friendly. Many S'poreans welcome the candidates with open arms regardless of which party they r from. Some of them will say "I will support u ah!" to both opposition parties. Haha.. now i suddenly understand why "voting is secret". U really nv know who they will vote for afterall! :)
