A by-election result, more pics from the park, and the return of 'Uncle Toh'...

Punggol East By-election

Ms Lee Li Lian from the Workers' Party won, with more than 54 per cent of the vote. There will be a lot of post-election analyses in the days ahead. One thing for sure: a four-cornered fight did not detract from the eventually PAP-WP head-on, given that the other two are lightweight candidates. In this sense, the SDP's pulling out early during the hustings played a crucial role; it might even have been the tipping point. Now both the WP and the PAP have to work hard, and be seen to work hard -- the former to prove it can integrate Punggol East into its own municipal network and the latter to persist in wooing Punggol East voters and not resort to getting into "punishment politics".

More Bukit Batok Park pics: The fauna and the floral

Other than getting bitten by a few mosquitoes, I did not see any animals at the park. There were certainly no monkeys. But I did see these:



 Well, I guess these signs must have been very effective. Here are some pics I took of some of the flora:

Finally, Hokkien-speaking "Uncle Toh" is back, as funny as ever!...
