PAP appoints Tin Pei Ling as member of Home Affairs and Law GPC

Repost from Temasek Review 6 July 2011

Despite still being under police investigation, the PAP regime has appointed unpopular MP Tin Pei Ling as a member of the Home Affairs and Law Government Parliamentary Committee (GPC) led by Mr Michael Palmer (source: ST Media)

Ms Tin allegedly flouted election rules on ‘Cooling off’ day by posting a snide remark on her Facebook page critical of her opponent Nicole Seah. She later claimed that it was posted by her administrator, the elusive ‘Denise He’ who has not been heard, seen or found by anybody at the moment.

Two months have passed since a police report was lodged against her and the case is still under investigation while the police took only one week to arrest former WP candidate Dr James Gomez for ‘intimidating’ a civil servant in 2006.

The PAP regime is making a mockery of Singapore’s legal system and Singaporeans by appointing Ms Tin to sit on the Home Affairs and Law GPC when she still has a police case hanging over her hand.

How can a MP who is suspected of commiting a crime be allowed to sit on a GPC in Home Affairs and Law itself? Will the police now dare to take action against Ms Tin who is now sitting on the GPC overseeing them?

The shocking decision by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong shows that he does not bother to listen to Singaporeans and his apologies and promises made on the eve of polling day are nothing more but ‘wayang’ to win last-minute votes for his party.

TRE calls on the PAP to either close Ms Tin’s case immediately or suspend her from sitting on any GPCs till the police investigations are complete.
