As a 50 yr old Singaporean highly educated patriot, I am proud of Nicole Seah. I don't know her but from her presentation showed a sincerity that had depth ... she is not only quite bright but she is real, she is courageous, and she exhibited humility and grace. I can't say the same for Eng Hen - he was a senior in the same JC during my time. We must never discount youth and never put down. We were all once young.
PAP is getting damn hao lian and lacking examplary moral leadership. Disappointing coming from an ex Minister of Education. What a tragedy. The older generation may not understand your nuances but the younger generation can clearly hear your arrogance.
It is amazing to see how these "political nazis" like TsJuSck look at ALL the comments even from 5 months back, to reply to them, saying how ignorant we all are. Remember, we are just commenting based on the video plus our knowledge on the news etc. Please dont show others your sensitive side. thank you. :D
@716saint i beg to differ. Everything that you have said, things that u have written down, will be scrutinized by anyone anytime, especially when u have posted it online for all to see. DONT expect to make a mistake and think u can get away with it. Even with no background knowledge, i belive a secondary school student can understand what the minister is saying in the video. its only u bunch of quick to be anti PAP that is more than to glad to jump at every opportunity to undermine them.
@TsJuSck well.. its for you to say sir. :) i understand what he is trying to say in this video but remember, in secondary school, the govt teaches us social studies, and by that we mean unbiasness. sorry but if you get the point of these "anti PAP" people or not, it is your loss of trying to understand what these people feel. yes, true enough some of us are reckless but remember not all.
haha its really amusing to note that majority of the people have been mislead in this video. it shows how most singaporeans just love to criticize and complain without seeing the full picture
I feel like I've wasted my youth studying in Singapore like a freaking no life nerd. "no matter how bright you are whether you are in PAP or other party, you brightness and your intellegence doesnt impact me, you know," If this is the case, I see no purpose and importance being in education anymore. Citizens of Singapore gave power to "Pay And Pay". In 5years time. In 5years time, things are going to change. Thank god Singaporeans are not limited to local media. Thank youtube for this video.
@polarspirit u do study hard? the fact u are misinterpreting his speech shows how educated you are. you r quoting him out of context. GOD i am speechless how fast u people r at flaming the pap before opening ur eyes bigger to WATCH the video
@TsJuSck Too bad. If I'm educated and I can even misinterpret his speech, what about those lowly educated citizens? If he wants to sustain or gain more votes, then he better stop beating round the bush and get things straight to the point.
Wow... I feel ashamed that he is a fucking faggot of an education minister.
When I grow up, I want to be similar yet different to Nicole Seah.
I will share her ideals but I may have to employ different tactics to ensure that SMUG fucks like him get a taste of his own medicine.
If you were so bright Mr Education Minister, then why can't you make SINGAPOREANS happy? You being so damn OLD, you should have been WISER in your leadership decisions.
Mr. Ng if you're so bright go back homeland and lend a hand to revamp it...dun come here & teach our NIcole's generation how to speak. Ask TCS if they'll choose you or Nicole as their newscaster?.....cry baby :)
"Your brightness and intelligence doesn't impact me".... that really reminds me of my hometown across the sea, where stupid individuals can rule a country XD.
To Mr Ng Eng Hen, since the brightness or intelligence of a person doesnt matter, PICK ME! give me your pay && i will share it among our fellow singaporeans. PAP should suck balls.
No wonder he's appointed Minister of Education-- cos most of the student population are too young to vote him out!
If he had the self-awareness to ask those questions of himself-- he would be very very worried for himself indeed... because of the kind of life and "improvements" he's been giving the student population...
The primary school student-to-teacher ratio is still stuck at 40-to-1, when Singapore first become independent around 50 years ago-- and he still dare to talk cock!
Look at Ng Eng Hen arrogant face, those MEN IN WHITE have an ego that is bigger than their brain so they can't take constructive criticism and they only want YES MEN like TPL. This will lead to their downfall one day.
SM Goh said that Nicole Seah did impact the results in Marine Parade (thus impact him) ... Mr Ng is somehow correct to say that he is not affected by Nicole Seah just because he is not in the same GRC ... Hmm, how will GE2016 go if Mr Ng goes 1-on-1 against Nicole Seah ... He should ask for that as Nicole Seah cannot impact him ...
Ng eng heng speaks in the manner of the PAP that doesn't empathize, and still has, as Catherine lim describes, the huge affective divide from the people
Nicole Seah and your team, you should fight other constituency instead. A Gov no matter how bad, need a Head and our Gov leaders. People are saying TPL has no experience how about you ? Only that you act Mature. But the fact that you want to tear down our own Experience & "Mature" MPs, show that you are very Naive and Immature Yourself! Good you didn't win! Go other constituency next time to fight the "lousy ones" maybe you can win.
Hi I may not be in the league of these politicians and whatsoever but even I know that the reason why people would support and stand along side people like nicole and LTK because they understand and related to the people, they listen to the people. A good politician doesn't have to have the best brains out there, but they must have the best heart out there and this is why PAP has failed. EQ prevails over IQ hands down. knowledge is like wealth, its pointless if you have so much and yet be stingy
Mr Ng is just sour grapes. She beats all the female PAP MPs hands down, although she is young and inexperience. She possess all the qualitiies of a MP that Singaporeans need. Compassionate, understanding,down to earth and connect with every kind of pple and speak up for the pple with passion. I pray that you will be voted in Parliament. Every true blue Singaporean needs YOU in Parliament
@vocaltrance4ever I wanted to expose the arrogance of Education Minister Ng Eng Hen. See his non-verbal cues? See how he smirks? I feel he is too proud......

How about government spending, SAYING is EASIER THAN DONE. she had never venture abroad, it's just like a frog in a well, please set your eyesights far enough. stop whinning and talking loudly doesnt mean anything.
Its time for retirement you OLD FOGEY!! You think all Singaporeans are dumb arses and that we dont know anything at all? Dont get all cocky just cos you have the authority!! You will need to feel the pinch before you wipe that smirk off your face!!! Go Nicole!!!!
PATHETIC WORDS FOR AN OLD BOY LIKE YOU TO SPURT OUT TO NICOLE.
UNCLE HEN-NG-OUT ($MILLIONS$), NOW GO QUEUE ALONG THE BREAD LINE AND UNDERSTAND WHAT SINGAPOREANS BEEN THROUGH WHILE YOU FEASTED X-O, LOBSTERS, CAVIAR AND CHAMPAGNE! YOU HAVE LOST THE RACE TO NICOLE! QUIT, OLD CHAP!
Social media is scary, this video has been manipulated out of context. Note he said from a heartlander point of view, its not the intelligence / IQ of the MP voted in(regardless from which party) but of how he / she can impact and change our lives for the better. Thats totally logical. But I guess when our emotions are on a high, it can easily be stirred regardless.......:)
He merely said that to voters, the intelligence or education of their MPs will not matter. What really matters is what policies they will implement.
Don't get me wrong however. Nicole is still a great candidate. To implement policies well, you need to have strong views about issues impacting voters. Nicole clearly understands those views, and is articulate enough to argue for them.
He is the Minister of Education and yet he make such statement,better appoint him as a Pimary School Teacher,that will suit him well,perhap Tin Pei Ling suit him well(another Sugar Daddy) Hahahaha,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
was ng eng hen referring to nicole? i dont think so, the video is misleading. it is both from different contexts, and edited together. isn't that obvious.
"the mightiest shield and the mightiest spear' like catch 21
suddenly confronted with articulate and seeming very brilliant spark in opposition.... "your intelligence doesn;t impact me!" arrogance. they always boast to have the BEST. DO THEY REALLY???
Singapore is for everyone. NO 1 party should stop others from "CHOPPing" the rights to govern.- worse still with FILMSY tissue paper no substance candidate
This GE 2011 as a whole is a case of bullying; or rather David versus Goliath.
So you would expect desperate means by the ruling party to hold on to power at any cost. Therefore, like Nicole Seah said, think carefully before you vote. Vote without fear. The only thing about fear is fear itself. Another thing is that "even the forest is moving" in Shakespears's Macbeth. Moving to where? Go see the movie
"Throne of Blood" by Akira Kurosawa. The end is tragic.
He is the minsiter of education and he says : "no matter how bright you are whether you are in PAP or other party, you brightness and your intellegence doesnt impact me, you know," and they say what, we want to educate the people of singapore so that they can be future leaders. WOW. you can now eat unicorn rainbows man
@716saint 716saint, obviously ur either ignorant or u read with both eyes close. those are not the ministers quote, read the subtitles properly before u go around ranting. What he is saying is that, singaporeans do not care how smart or which party u belong to, it only matters if it affects them, in this way, improving their lives. You are totally misinterpreting his speech wrongly.
@TsJuSck LOL. seeing how much you try to defend this video shows how much of a... Oh i rather not say else i might be placed in ISA. :P by the way, i know it is what singaporeans said. but remember he is only quoting SOME of the things singaporeans said and its mostly negative, thus to garner support for THEMSELVES. :) plus remember, he should be thinking of ways to tell the people how he is correct, but not blaming it on the people.
@716saint i am not trying to defend this video, rather i am bemused that so many people can be quick to judge and even flame someone innocent for their speech, when in actual fact, these critics are the one who have actually misunderstood the situation. you are bringing down someones reputation, please bear that in mind
@716saint I must point out that this video has clearly been taken out of context. If you take a look at the subtitles in the scene that was quickly cut off - he means that educational qualifications do not necessarily correlate to governing ability.
marine parade is a grc. to me nsp is campaigning as if it's a single seat constituency.... how can i trust my future and singapore's future with them? hmmmm must think hard about this.
marine parade is a grc. to me nsp is campaigning as if it's a single seat constituency.... how can i trust my future and singapore's future with them? hmmmm must think hard about this.
I will vote for the young lady anytime. The first young lady. That man speaks rather cocky but I feel small to see so many ACS boys serving under RI ones and somemore talk so big.
It is not just her brightness that captivate us, Mr Ng. It has nothing to do with how the opposition make you feel or not feel. It has everything to do with the fact that they speak with a heart for the people. They are not high and mighty and untouchable. The are not patronising us. They too suffer the sufferings we are facing today. The opposition stood out for us, "risking" themselves and their families and yet not witholding their believes and ours. THAT IS WHAT MATTERS!
Oh yea i forgot SHAME ON YOU MR NG PICKING on a LITTLE LIKE HER WHY YOU SCARE SHE SMARTER THEM U?? THAT WHY PAP RATHER USE THE CITIZEN MONEY TO EMPLOY A BIMBO??? SO SHE WILL NEVER SURPASS U ???? DAMN
So Mr Ng is saying that a empty shell is better cause the empty shell cannot take over them. He scare that she smarter than him and will walk over him. PAP all the big shot picking on this gal. WHY NOT ALL THIS SO CALL OLD TIMER STEP ASIDE AND LET THE 2 GAL STICK IT. BIG BULLY
Nicole Seah at only 24, with her gut, eloquence & sincerity (to be tested), will surely inject some freshness in a dull, PAP-dominated parliament. At this juncture, young Nicole may not be able to "deliver" (as sneered by Minister Ng Eng Hen), but S'poreans must surely want to give her a chance to grow her political potential. Nicole's brave fight deserves recognition/support...compared to Tin Pei Ling, who is almost certain to enter Parliament thru the backdoor.
Mr Ng, are you saying the current batch of candidates PAP recruited are not bright and non intelligent as compared to Nicole Seah and they have no impact to the Singaporean and the future of Singapore ?? If that;s true, we go for the opposition.
LMAO for Singaporean to rely on 24 year old girl to take charge... No doubt she takes MRT and Buses like we do, but does she has the vision and capability to bring Singapore to next stage? Do you want Singapore to fall behind?

Very impressive speech for a young lady! Articulate and full of confidence! But action still speaks louder than words!....Hopefully the words spoken can live up to Singaporean expectations in future!...Nevertheless, I'll still support her! Intelligence does play a vital part in politics! Sincerity and empathy comes hand in hand as well! She is definitely more sincere than some.....some without substance or empathy but try to act as though they have!
YOU ARE THE RIGHT !!!!! EVERYONE LISTEN , NOW IS 2011 NO MORE THE PASS SO MANY YEARS , WE REALLY NEED A GOOD MP VOICE IN THE PARLIMENT! I AM THE ONE WHO SUPPORT MR LEE KUAN YEW TOO , BUT WE STILL NEED SOMEONE HELP US VOICE IN THE PARLIMENT !!WHO CAN BE SAME AS NICOLE SEAH ?? YOU ?? WE ONLY CAN VOTED YOU INTO THE PARLIMENT !!! ALL THE BEST NICOLE SEAH !
Ms Nicole Seah's brightness and intelligence surely have positive impact on me and I believe also many ordinary Singaporeans. It is a pleasure to listen to her. She talks sense. The same cannot be said of some of our ministers who spoke against her. Deep in their hearts, they must have agreed that Nicole speaks well and her points are not groundless. So do reflect yourself by asking: ' Am I being fair to discredit her?' Respects and Honour need to be earned!
How about we see things this way, to be so young and yet, be able to be so influential, is simply commendable...
Same questions back to YOU Mr Ng. "One, Can you improve my life?" "Two, can I continue to trust you as my government". I love Mr Lee Kuan Yew and forever will be, because he undeniably led Singapore. But his men are just building on existing feats he made decades ago and not truly improving...
@clarrotXmen the improvement does not seem significant as compare to past, partly due to improvement can hardly follow an exponential or constant growth.. at some point in time, the improvement will slow down.. this is true for many real life cases, many MNCs may have fast initial expansion of business, but the growth will gradually slow down due to various limitations in life.. what kind of improvement do you want? but i do hope nicole can be at least a NMP, and serve the people
Having so much intelligence but use it in a bad way also jialat. Having so much intelligence but use it in a good manner is a whole new different story. What Mr Ng said is very right. But really, does what Mr Ng said reflects the true self of PAP? That is the question. Talk only, No action
If not, do you think NS gets to stay in a 5 room flat, has groomed brows, regular hair colouring, etc. Find out about the real NS. Ask her colleagues. She loves to speak up, esp at work. Of course, that's her PR work. NEH is asking for solutions and not talk or facts! There are no perfect government but ours came close.....Don't be fooled. Singaporeans can be so superficial....
Goodness guys! just because worshipper888 put NEH side by side with NS doesn't mean relation. Please don't worship blindly!!!! Get a rock star to idolize and stop dreaming! Trade offs!
Given her eloquency, she will do well in Parliament.
At least she is able to speak her mind, particularly under pressure, and that's what being a MP is all about. Giving viewpoints in order to review/reshape/form policies, thus different perspectives are very much needed.
Too bad you are not contesting in my constituency, if not I will confirm vote for you.
I'm impressed by Nicole Seah.... very eloquent and down to earth. Mr Ng, I have no freaking idea who you are in the PAP party, but you are one arrogant piece of crap. Like YOU would know the issues average Singaporean are concerned about.
its true that our ministers are paid too well to rule a small country like ours,they just wayang abit here and there,down to earth to understand our problems,no way! do they ever take public transports or eat at coffee shops,u got the points?
That Mother Hen could have been referring to himself about the 'intelligence' part. His two questions can also be asked of the PAP and they would fail badly IMHO.
Mr Ng obviously feels threatened by Nicole - hence the attitude and smugness when referring to her inteliigence. Just you wait, Mr Ng! Nic's brightness and intelligence will translate into a force more powerful then you can ever imagine when she is voted into Parliament. She has the smarts and passion to do what's right and what's needed to be done. Dont you think being bright is WAY better than appearing childish and without substance? Nicole is AWESOME - spread the word!
Very impressive speech for a young lady! Articulate and full of confidence! But action still speaks louder than words!....Hopefully the words spoken can live up to Singaporean expectations in future!...Nevertheless, I'll still support her! Intelligence does play a vital part in politics! Sincerity and empathy comes hand in hand as well! She is definitely more sincere than some.....some without substance or empathy but try to act as though they have!
@lifethymes Mr. Ng should focus on his mandate instead of attacking a Most Talented Bright Singaporean Girl.
Credit must be given to Nicole there is no way that PAPaya Tin Tong girl compared to Nicole. If Tin Tong vote into the parliament she doesn't know what to said, is that what my fellow Singaporean WANT. A Seow Tin Tong or a Very Bright Talented Young SIngaporean that speak loud and clear of their mandate.
Ng Eng Han, I think this video raises some interesting point. I see Nicole as a prodigy in politics who happens to have bright ideas and the passion and conviction to carry these out for the good of Singapore. That indirectly insults the education minister, because the education system under MOE/PAP is engineered to make Singaporeans docile, apathetic and thus an obedient population that will not question the government. PAP is always portrayed as heroes in MOE endorsed history textbooks...
Her brightness has definitely impacted me. I am now happy that we have a young 24 year old intelligent girl who could empathise and articulate the feelings of the ordinary forgotten laymen. Nicole is our GOLDEN GIRL.
The average Singaporean doesn't own a HDB flat! The average Singaporean lives with their parents!

Social media is scary, this video has been manipulated out of context. Note he said from a heartlander point of view, its not the intelligence / IQ of the MP voted in(regardless from which party) but of how he / she can impact and change our lives for the better. Thats totally logical. But I guess when our emotions are on a high, it can easily be stirred regardless.......:)

Please don't take Mr Ng's remarks out of context.
He merely said that to voters, the intelligence or education of their MPs will not matter. What really matters is what policies they will implement.
Don't get me wrong however. Nicole is still a great candidate. To implement policies well, you need to have strong views about issues impacting voters. Nicole clearly understands those views, and is articulate enough to argue for them.

This GE 2011 as a whole is a case of bullying; or rather David versus Goliath.
So you would expect desperate means by the ruling party to hold on to power at any cost. Therefore, like Nicole Seah said, think carefully before you vote. Vote without fear. The only thing about fear is fear itself. Another thing is that "even the forest is moving" in Shakespears's Macbeth. Moving to where? Go see the movie
"Throne of Blood" by Akira Kurosawa. The end is tragic.

@716saint i am not trying to defend this video, rather i am bemused that so many people can be quick to judge and even flame someone innocent for their speech, when in actual fact, these critics are the one who have actually misunderstood the situation. you are bringing down someones reputation, please bear that in mind
TsJuSck 4 months ago
@716saint I must point out that this video has clearly been taken out of context. If you take a look at the subtitles in the scene that was quickly cut off - he means that educational qualifications do not necessarily correlate to governing ability.
So the main problem here is the non-verbal cues.

It is not just her brightness that captivate us, Mr Ng. It has nothing to do with how the opposition make you feel or not feel. It has everything to do with the fact that they speak with a heart for the people. They are not high and mighty and untouchable. The are not patronising us. They too suffer the sufferings we are facing today. The opposition stood out for us, "risking" themselves and their families and yet not witholding their believes and ours. THAT IS WHAT MATTERS!

Nicole Seah at only 24, with her gut, eloquence & sincerity (to be tested), will surely inject some freshness in a dull, PAP-dominated parliament. At this juncture, young Nicole may not be able to "deliver" (as sneered by Minister Ng Eng Hen), but S'poreans must surely want to give her a chance to grow her political potential. Nicole's brave fight deserves recognition/support...compared to Tin Pei Ling, who is almost certain to enter Parliament thru the backdoor.

Ms Nicole Seah's brightness and intelligence surely have positive impact on me and I believe also many ordinary Singaporeans. It is a pleasure to listen to her. She talks sense. The same cannot be said of some of our ministers who spoke against her. Deep in their hearts, they must have agreed that Nicole speaks well and her points are not groundless. So do reflect yourself by asking: ' Am I being fair to discredit her?' Respects and Honour need to be earned!

How about we see things this way, to be so young and yet, be able to be so influential, is simply commendable...
Same questions back to YOU Mr Ng. "One, Can you improve my life?" "Two, can I continue to trust you as my government". I love Mr Lee Kuan Yew and forever will be, because he undeniably led Singapore. But his men are just building on existing feats he made decades ago and not truly improving...
clarrotXmen 10 months ago 4
@clarrotXmen the improvement does not seem significant as compare to past, partly due to improvement can hardly follow an exponential or constant growth.. at some point in time, the improvement will slow down.. this is true for many real life cases, many MNCs may have fast initial expansion of business, but the growth will gradually slow down due to various limitations in life.. what kind of improvement do you want? but i do hope nicole can be at least a NMP, and serve the people

Given her eloquency, she will do well in Parliament.
At least she is able to speak her mind, particularly under pressure, and that's what being a MP is all about. Giving viewpoints in order to review/reshape/form policies, thus different perspectives are very much needed.
Too bad you are not contesting in my constituency, if not I will confirm vote for you.

Ng Eng Han, I think this video raises some interesting point. I see Nicole as a prodigy in politics who happens to have bright ideas and the passion and conviction to carry these out for the good of Singapore. That indirectly insults the education minister, because the education system under MOE/PAP is engineered to make Singaporeans docile, apathetic and thus an obedient population that will not question the government. PAP is always portrayed as heroes in MOE endorsed history textbooks...
