I am not Mr. Tan

I just bought a Chinese joke book for SGD 12, with Jiahao contributing SGD 2 to subsidize the cost. I read it to de-stress, breaking into some of my biggest laughs in my life. At its introduction, the book promises to inspire and empower me with the strength and courage to launch a massive onslaught against certain inequalities and monopolies, but I was so tickled pink after reading that my legs could not even pick themselves up. The author indulged himself in some form of self-induced persecution and ridicule, and I'm impressed by the way he interpreted his world. I'm guilty of such ridicule as well, for buying the book in the first place. Small regrets experienced here, but it's still worth the purchase for all the smiles on my face. Shall lend the book to Jiahao when he wants it.

So did u feel empowered after reading the book? And did u finally realize that your gahmen has been engaging in neo-colonialist practices like erm, undermining the Chinese population and enslaving the populace?

What an awakening...

The Democratic Progressive Party (abbrev: DPP; Chinese: 民主进步党) is a political party in Singapore.

Although officially registered as a party on 16 March 1973, it has been regarded as a father and son combination of Mr Tan Soo Phuan and his son Tan Lead Shake, a IT network administrator. The party contested the general elections of 1997 and 2001 but failed to win a seat. Furthermore, in the 1997 General Elections, Mr Tan Soo Phuan lost S$6,000 of his election deposit as he failed to win 1/8 of the votes in the constituency that he contested. In the 2001 General Elections, it was his son's turn to lose the election deposit of S$13,000 (increased due to pay rises of each member of parliament) in Ayer Rajah SMC where he contested.

In 1997, the junior Tan earned the nickname "Slipper Man" for appearing at the nomination centre at Victoria School in slippers. [2]
