Hi David Wu, I would to offer my personal thoughts on your question posed to Kenneth Jeyaretnam, from the view of someone who is not a committee member of the Reform Party. I feel that opposition parties, Reform party especially, should campaign for constitutional reform alongside bread-and-butter issues because the two are so inextricably linked.

Only when adequate checks and balances have been introduced into the system and there is a multi-party system coupled with effective separation of powers between the legislature, executive and judiciary, can we effectively win the fight over bread-and-butter issues.

But that being said, all opposition parties, Reform party included, face time constraints, and as such often we will have to focus our attention on our issue at a time. Since bread and butter issues concern Singaporeans the most, we will have to give that priority. But rest assured the larger goal of reforming the political system will not be forgotten in the hustings.

roti & kaya issues?? now why didn't he say that to master chee n his SDP CLAN? i forgot chee is not interested in "winning wards". maybe he is just interested in "doing in" peesailand for his foreign bosses.

breakfast.

master chee: sausage, sunny eggs, ham, bacon and freshly baked bread?

JJ: er, roti, gu -yue (butter) and kaya please. 2 soft-boiled eggs and pass the dark soy sauce n pepper. kopi O , one cup please!
