The Aljunied GRC Medallion

Img-20110821-00314
This piece of 1Oz 999 fine silver Aljunied GRC medallion you see in this picture is one of a very limited 300 pieces specially made to celebrate The Workers' Party's victory in the GRC on 7th May 2011 General Election. Every piece have a unique certification number and is definitely an item that guests who attend 7th Month dinner functions in Aljunied GRC would look out for...those that were able to invite the opposition MPs of course!


It is not available for sale, therefore, you cannot buy it from any retailers. It is instead, given as a gift to the organizers of the 7th Month dinner functions that the opposition Aljunied GRC MPs attends,for them to auction off. All the proceeds from the auction goes to the organizers.


This particular piece that I had with me in the picture above was auctioned off earlier this evening for $13,800.00


This is a new record for this item..the highest bid so far. I wonder if it has got anything to do with the ongoing issue in Aljunied GRC (See Link :Media Release on Use of Public Sites in Aljunied GRC).


I am really glad and appreciative of the fact that there are many people on the ground who are supportive of WP, despite the current unlevel ground situation.

Wishing all citizens, residents and friends of Singapore a very Happy National Day 2011!

The 46th Birthday of Singapore and many MPs took this opportunity to wish their residents a very happy national day with their very big (duno whose's budget!) budget! In fact, I strongly believe that their budget is bigger and bigger each year in accordance with the size of their billboards.

In fact, the billboards are so big to the extend that it caught the attention of Aljunied GRC MP, Mr Chen Show Mao (See Link Here)...
Well, for me..I can only afford a tiny small column in the Wan Bao & Sin Ming(8/8/2011) and the Zaobao(9/8/2011) using my own limited pocket money..

Happy 46th Birthday Singapore! Of coz, we must not forget the people who made Singapore what it is today..definitely not a single man...the pioneers of Singapore..our parents and grandparents' generation.."This generation embodies the true Singapore spirit—the determination to work hard, overcome the odds and carve out a better life for their children. They serve as an shining example for many future generations to follow."
Majulah Singapura! :)
