It's The Quality, Not The Quantity

 

FACT: 

7 WP MPs and 2 WP NCMPs failed to table a single motion in parliament to debate on the issues that they raised so fiercely and with so much drama standing all drenched in the rain and with their 90 degree bow to Singaporeans tugging at your heartstrings during their 2011 election rallies. 

Zero motion filed after all the drama!

Now Mr Low Thia Khiang had just told you they would need at least 20 MPs in order to have sufficient resources to scrutinize government policies. Do you believe him? 

FACT: 

ONE NMP - Assoc Prof Walter Woon - introduced a bill in parliament to legislate for the maintenance of parents (23 May 1994) He highlighted that although there were no urgent need at the time, the nation needed to prepare to cope with an increasingly aging population.

9 WP MPs and NCMPs did not make any difference to the well-being of Singaporeans. One NMP did. 

TRUTH:

How many MPs are needed to scrutinize government policy? ONE

The drama will soon begin but don't let your emotions be manipulated again. Once bitten twice shy.
