HOW should an opposition leader vote in a general election (GE), especially one who is contesting the polls?
For Workers' Party leader, he voted for the ruling People's Action Party candidate in the 2006 GE - and has now found himself in the eye of an online storm.
Mr Yaw, a Bukit Panjang resident, had revealed in his blog that he voted for the PAP's Teo Ho Pin who was contesting the single-member ward against Singapore Democratic Party chairman and former opposition MP Ling How Doong.
The disclosure was just a one-liner: - Teo Ho Pin (MP) - Good MP. I voted for him in GE06.
And it was hyperlinked to Dr Teo's blog.
However, it soon appeared on a popular online forum and sparked a furore among netizens who registered their ire and disappointment in more than 100 postings.
Read the full report in Friday's edition of The Straits Times.
