Keep Lee Bee Wah in Parliament
Keep Lee Bee Wah in parliament. I was quite inspired by the rags to riches story of this parliamentary spitfire as recounted in Weekend Today. For a woman who came to Singapore with only 20RM in her pocket and worked her way up in the male-dominated field of engineering, she sure packs a punch in the political circle. But this is not the reason why I want her to stay on in parliament. What's more interesting is how she managed to pique my interest in Singapore politics with her domineering ways and shoot-from-the-hip (and mouth) antics. Exciting stuff. And for this reason alone, she should be kept in parliament. The same goes for Sylvia Lim and Lily Neo. Interesting how these women demonstrate you can be forceful in a myriad of ways.
