PAP General
Election candidate for Aljunied GRC (http://redwiretimes.com/cow-beh-cow-bu/send-in-the-clowns-paps-mega-bucks-and-a-cunning-linguist-underdogs-in-aljunied-fight/)Victor Lye has slammed critics for
criticising his visit to a fire incident scene at Bedok.

Mr Lye had posted pictures on Facebook, showing him at a fire case there and
checking on the affected resident.

But the post didn’t go down well with residents, with many flaming him for
putting up a show.

In response, Mr Lye said,


“For me, the focus should be on the people who are affected by the fire
incident. That’s why we made the effort. Yet, the naysayers completely missed
the point. Having let the comments run, it tells the truth about the intent of
those who fail or refuse to care, but only to rouse and divide. Let fair minded
people see the kind of heartless commentary clearly for
themselves.”
Mr Lye had said in his original post that he:


“Received news of a fire at Blk 723 Bedok Reservoir Road while I was
speaking to residents at Blk 704 Bedok Reservoir Road. Rushed over and met the
owners to offer assistance. Glad that no one was hurt and property was secure.
Thanked the neighbour who alerted the civil defence and checked on the
neighbours upstairs. Thanks to our civil defence officers
too.”
However, his Facebook post was shot down by many netizens.

Said Qaz Fanaz:


“Regardless of whether you’re a PAP or opposition supporter , I believe
the altercation in this comment link focuses on the credibility of his act of
community bonding. Some question the actual candid-ness of his pictures whilst
others question whether it was all one big show. But regardless, one must
understand that if you have done what needs to be done, and out of your own
accord , recognition will be given. There will be no need to solicit it.
Humility is always mentioned in leadership talks and books . Perceived
narcissistic post and pictures in this post further fuels the fire on a already
burning political facade associated with political parties . ‘A good deed dies
when it is spoken about’ – Arab proverb -”
Benny Kwang said:


VL – we are only voting for some true gentlemen. Not some drama mama or
someone with the characteristic of a “wet market petty woman” picking on
irrelevant issue.
And others like Chee Hao Lim seconded the opinion:


“I don’t see the need to post the good things you have done. if it comes
from the heart it comes from the heart, you don’t have to have a facebook post
for it. People that are touched by you would do that for
you.
However, some such as Muhd Rifae have stuck up for Mr Lye:


“Victor Lye…plz dont u waste yr bloody time on these group of ppl.Like i
told u,they hav been quiet for the past years about u till election is round the
corner. There will always b haters trying to discourage u…just do what u need to
do sir.At least u didn’t walk with a donation tin around.”
