First and foremost, I have originally no intention to comment on the guilty judgement by the local judiciary. But as a layman, I am just extremely curious on how the issues on hand can be decided by trial to determine whether something is a lie or not a lie. The only 100% certainty thing that can convince everyone is if there are videos taken or conversation recording to prove what he or she had said or not. Else everything becomes pretty judgemental albeit circumstantial evidences and witness statements, is it not? Anyway, I am not a lawyer, so I am resigned to being clueless on how these legal thingy works.
Additionally, worst thing is does this issue even matter when there are larger issues at stake for Singaporeans such as high inflation effect on daily bread and butter matters. Personally, I thought that it is an enormous waste of public resources and time. Also, I read that Mr Singh is going to launch an appeal to the higher courts with regard to the judgement....so the soap opera continues.
This trial of Mr Pritam Singh will only lead to more support and sympathy vote for him during the upcoming General Election. So looks like Aljunied GRC will remain with the opposition for another term.
