WP supporters creating a false perception



Right after WP won Sengkang GRC, this petition went round without any basis for it. Today, after more than 2 months, the petition is still going round.

The intent of this petition is not about asking for a promise of grant (which should not even arise in the first place unless the petitioner wants to imply that the new Sengkang Town Council will manage town council funds very badly).

The intent of this petition is to spread a false perception. This is why more than 2 months later, the petition is still making its rounds.

The uninformed and the gullible reading the petition will think that the government intends to withhold grants from Sengkang. This is how seeds of falsehoods are sowed. They get entrenched through their continued presence on social media.

In a statement published by Sengkang GRC Facebook page, the WP describes these petitions as ''WELL-MEANING" and WP 'APPRECIATE' the efforts of many Singaporeans ASSISTING them. The only instruction WP gave to their supporters is not to use WP photos..
Guess other than that, supporters can continue their efforts.
