One of the SEVEN Sins... yeah and GREED is personified by a glutton who ate to his death in the movie "SEVEN"... Or is it GLUTTONY?...hehehe

[Tigerwoods]

i respect the rank, does not mean i respect the person. Respect of the person must be earned through the heart and capabilities. In our military, rank is easily earned through education qualifications.

[Tigerwoods]

so many use Mandarin in their speech.

All trying to imitate CSM ?

[Alim]

You mean:

 

He is wondering when he can be like CSM.

 

[Tigerwoods]

why you all don seemed to like LHL arh ?

is it bcz he is his father's son or he is underperforming ?

[Porche]

then ah teo and the rest of the monkeys don't use other countries to compare because foreign countries may not correlate to Singapore

[Sosaria]

Why CSM got so many admirers ?

Its because he never uses Chye Tao Kuay, Mee Siam mai Hum, Hawker centre, Foodcourt or Restaurant to make his analogy of situations and things.

 

When they use such examples as you mentioned, they are actually "talking down" to people - that's why we find it irritating.

 

It's as if people are too dumb to understand their argument, so they must resort to such so-called (that's what they think!) 'homely', 'heartlander-ly' examples in their speech. It's downright insulting.

[Sosaria]

Saw a split second CSChan deep concentration to listen CSM speech. Hope he learns a thing or 2 about connecting to the Public is not the same as being the public. Stage presence, Charisma, air of mystery, sophistication, Aura is missing in him.

Blame it on his boy boy look.

...

 

Ha ha ha... I suffer from the same problem - looking younger than my age.

 

It's hard to get over people's first impressions with that kind of look. Need to work with people for some time before they can go past that look and recognise the abilities. ...I can sympathize with him.

[Jetabout777]

aiyah, why got dud over when he speak in chinese

 

anyway....his speech POWER

 

Do note that the translator for CSM's mandarin version was done by a person with a Chinese accent. I wonder whether this was deliberate so as to reflect his heritage.

[Toothiewabbit]

Chen Show Mao has the caliber to be a minister. Give him proposed minister pay!

[Eddielawson]

Political leaders around the world feels no dignity to speak to our any minister,even an entry level minister. So how can they connect to us peasants.

[Curahee]

I wonder whether this was deliberate so as to reflect his heritage.

 

Reflect it in a negative way, the PRC translation also cmi.
