This general election, the Reform Party (RP) is fielding its biggest contingent in Ang Mo Kio GRC, directly taking on an incumbent People’s Action Party (PAP) team helmed by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong himself.
But you would not have known that from their Constituency Political Broadcast last Friday (July 3), when only two of the five-member team appeared on camera to speak.
RP’s Charles Yeo and Noraini Yunus were the only ones in the studio to fill up the allocated 15 minutes of airtime. Being in the hot seat seemed to have put Yeo in particular on the spot, doing his best to deliver the speech in both English and Mandarin. It turned him into an overnight meme.
The three other running mates were plainly absent. RP chief Kenneth Jeyaretnam was serving a stay-home notice following his return from the UK, while Darren Soh — who was supposed to deliver the Mandarin message — had fallen ill before the recording.
