“She is simply not ruthless enough. By allowing her enemy to live, she was merely making life difficult for herself”.

The Example was irrelevant, irreverent and uncalled for.

The Second Quote sent a terrible chill down my spine. Did the Poster suggest that the Enemy be silenced ?

Anonymity is so safe.

“She is simply not ruthless enough. By allowing her enemy to live, she was merely making life difficult for herself”.

When I read the above, a terrible chill shot my nerve. The Example was definitely irrelevant, irreverent and uncalled for.

The Second Quote is just simply frightening !

HA HA HA ….. That speak how many people are still afraid to stand up for what they believe physically.

I personally felt that we need more people like LBW in the PAP. That will make them look really “NICE”. Got it? … He He He

Personally, I do not trust LGT at all. He is all out to promote his own career and grab more money. A coach of the year award will do a lot of good in raising his worth… He said he likes Singapore and treated here like his own country…. what a load of bull shit …. Where is he now? Training Indonesia …..

His response is STTA never ask him to stay. Why did he decide to go in the first place since he treat Singapore like his own country? ….. He was not dismissed, in fact he was offer another contract to continue, but he decided not to continue the contract …. as he revealed to the media. So he expects LBW, STTA, LHL, maybe LKY also to come and knelt down and beg him to stay is it?

STTA should just let everything be exposed, I am sure there are a lot of dust under the carpet, if not why is LGT not suing yet? Let him suffered at his own foolishness la.

ANOTHER DISTRACTION created by the media to take off our eyes on the real issues of the nation. This time it failed miserably.

NATO in action again.

i do not know all the details of what actually is the cause of bad blood between LBW & LGD, but she should come out publicly to explain herself.

if it really is a PR blunder do likewise, come out to explain. if need, apologise for any blunder.

everybody makes mistakes, but not everybody will own up…

Knowing that he (LGT) had made a mistake in the men’s team, he did not apologize at all but still defended himself and even accused STTA for dampening the celebrations for his and the team achievement.

His actions and response speaks very much about his characters. He just want to use Singapore as a launching pad for his career. He is not loyal to Singapore at all. I am sure Indonesia is paying him more …. Isn’t it stupid to give him a best coach award where he is now training another country to beat us….. THINK …

It is easy to say “they never ask me to stay” when his motivation is only himself.

Yeap… mentee especially you … please clean you gap after finishing your business….

He really has no right to know why he wasnt nominated. If the employer doesnt give an employee the “Best Employee” award, does the employee have the right to know why ?

It’s obvious that Liu is after the money that comes along with the Best Coach award. He is now trying to squeeze some monetary compensation out of STTA.

Joel Low, you must be an idiot.

A person who bansai here and there in parliament and in high-profile organization speaks without thinking, that is more like it.

And why she speaks without thinking? That’s becos she’s a super egoistic one.

I proved to them that I actually resign on my own, and the reasons is I could not take the lies and manipulations from the same pastor who claim he hate sins. After 3 years I know so many secrets of the church’s members because the pastor likes to gossip about it in the office and laugh over it. The only I stole from the church is the designs that I did for the church. I was mearly keeping a copy for my portfolio. Many of them after knowing the truth began to leave the church.

YOU SEE …. many times we thought we know the truth and make statements based on the little facts that we were told. We may not know the whole story and what actually transpired. We are always quick to judge and speak before we think or examined the so-call facts that have been presented to us.

LBW may be the most tactless MP I have ever known about in Singapore. Usually, the MPs of PAP are very well spoken and their comments are very well prepared and carefully crafted to please everybody. However, I agreed with :

“”"”"Personally I am more tolerant of an honest official who commits a PR blunder than of one who is scheming but with great PR skills.”"”"

If you look at LBW and her speeches in parliament and her comments in the public …… she may not have the tactfulness of speaking at the right tine the right words, but she does speaks her mind and the truth.

We do not know why she make a statement that LGT is unprofessional and not respected, but I doubt that she lied. People are not happy because they did not hear what they want to hear… that’s all. But if she did not lied than something might have transpired to make her and the STTA to make such a decision. Even the STTA supports her decision.

It i hard fot me to tell who is more right as I do not go to STTA to train with the players and LGT. BUT so do those who criticized LBW and petitioned her to be sacked. Why jump to conclusion when we do not know the truth YET…. OF all we know, STTA is not releasing the whole truth to protect LGT and give him a chance to still find a job!!!!

LGT should just settles it before all the cat is let out of the basket, then he might never be ale to find a coaching job anymore.

I do agree that LBW is tackless, and probably incompetent, especially with regard to the PR aspect of her job.

Personally I am more tolerant of an honest official who commits a PR blunder than of one who is scheming but with great PR skills.

a personal attack without any supporting evidence is wrong. its not about LGD having any hidden agenda. furthermore, LBW as an MP should have been more tactful when putting down a person. whether you believe she has any supporting evidence is not the point (its not about believe), either come out to clear the air or apologise for the outburst, dun lie low in hope people will just forget this incident.

////By allowing her enemy to live, she was merely making life difficult for herself.////

are you LBW? how did you arrive at the conclusion LGD is an enemy? about making her life difficult, she can only blame her own lack of tact.

I would suggest you dont take things at face value. Nobody would fly so far to have a meeting, and in the process meet the press so many times, without a hidden agenda.

The image of vulnerability is one which many people use to achieve their goals in different spheres of our lives. Do not fall for it.

My view is that it was bad judgment on her part. Either she should not have said it, or she should have said it together with supporting evidence, which I believe she has.

She is simply not ruthless enough. By allowing her enemy to live, she was merely making life difficult for herself. The contract which STTA offered to Liu was such an example. STTA probably didnt want to offer Liu the contract, but did so just to appease the public.

My point on other coaches feeling awkward is a lousy point maybe.

Lets assume LGD is not deserving for the award, and lets also assume that stta did the right thing not to nominate him. The fact here is LBW came out in the open, in MSM to attack him verbally. What is your view of LBW’s allegation that LGD has character n integrity problem?

Ex-coach Liu has exhibited exemplary behavior since touching down early Thursday morning – alone, he cut a very sad and being bullied figure , and such a poor thing – For all that he had done to get Singapore on the medal rostrum of the world’s top sporting stage, he is treated like shit by a person no lesser than a PAP MP and a so call professional – LBW, also a professed buddhist, who instead of being compassionate, uses her position to inflict the greatest mental cruelty to a fellow human being who like her is a “FT” serving Singapore well.

Singaporeans know now that they do not deserve Ex-coach Liu but for LBW – good riddens, and she only deserves herself and the longer she hangs around the more damage she will do to the STTA, not to mention the GRC of PM.

I am in no way associated with LBW; in fact i dont even like her. I am just saying that we can fault her for being incompetent, but not for being evil. I would prefer incompetency to evilness any day.

As for the other coaches, I dont see why they would feel awkard winning the award, if they had been given the award. They were all nominated on merit, no less deserving. The table tennis team winiing a medal should not necessarily entitle Liu to the award. We cannot say that medal is everything. Let me give an example. If a coach who helped Singapore win a gold medal in the Olympic Games was arrested for rape a few days after the final and subsequently convicted, would SNOC still give him the award ? Of course this is just an example, but it proves that winning a medal cannot be the sole criterion in deciding whether to give an award.

Be careful what you talk to public and if she right and gotm guts, shouldn’t hide and fight headon.

If you insult Singaporeans for Choosy, unclean is OK but for PRCs, they got guts to fight till the end. I respect then!
