JG Campaign Trail 2006: Day 2 - Letters

Dear Roderick,

I am a young voter from aljunied GRC, and i understand that you are reporting on Mr James Gomez's blog on his behalf during the election period. I have learnt that Mr Gomez has rejected an interview with the media with regards to the recent saga concerning the application of a minority certificate. While I can understand why he has refused to clarify the matter through the media, I hope that he can use another outlet, maybe his blog, to explain the whole issue. The general impression I got from the media was that he did not bother to look for the forms even after staff from the elections department had checked the closed circuit television and informed him that the forms were probably with him. I am sure that many other singaporeans are looking forward to an explanation from Mr Gomez, even if it means recognising that there was a mistake, for integrity is an important attribute in a member of parliament. I would like to wish Mr Gomez the best of luck in his election campaign.

Thank you,
Foo Jie Sheng


Dear Jie Sheng,

Thank you for your email and concern. Since I'm following James on his campaign trail, I know that this issue is a very important one to him. Hence, he is doing his level best to manage the issue and clarify the matter to all Singaporeans. I know that he will be making a statement at the WP rally tonight.

Please follow this blog for developments.

regards,
Roderick
