General Election 2011 from my perspective..(Part 2)

Sorry I took so long to update again..I was living out the hangover' from the GE and busy with some stuff.
Let me touch a bit on the supporters..The supporters who came to our rallies were wonder and creative people..

They came and bring along with them all sorts of display to show their message..I don't know about you, but I know exactly what they were pointing at :)

Here comes our big boss looking tired from a multitude of campaigning activities.
...and look at these two buddies of mine...do you think they look more tired than our boss? :P

You must have saw the flower garlands hanging on our candidates' necks..they were all from WP supporters. However, supporters cannot hang them directly on the candidates and after consultation with the rally site Police, we decided that our volunteers will help the supporters do so. Due to the lack of time, everything must be properly organized while the candidates were speaking on stage..



The flowers were quickly presented in less than 2 minutes..

When the candidates were talking on stage, any info updates are done the traditional way..

One observation I made during this GE campaign was that my perception that our young do not have any interest in politics could be wrong. During our walk about in Moulmein-Kallang, a group of Primary School kids went up to discuss national issues with Uncle George at his preambulating vehicle and also waited all the way till our candidates return from their walks. Well..not all kids got the opportunity to learn about the General Elections in this way!
