Cheeky Ah Ma Advises Voters To Vote Wisely In Coming Elections
We all know how grandparents love sharing their life stories to their grandchildren. From how life was before there were smartphones and the internet, to how a packet of Nasi Lemak cost only 15 cents back then.
For this cheeky senior voter, she’s relied on her life experiences to call on others to vote wisely in the coming elections.
In the viral Facebook video posted on Saturday (4 Jul), Mdm Chua shared some issues she faced with her Pioneer Generation (PG) card, CPF, and life after Mr Lee Kuan Yew in general.

Shares concerns about Pioneer Generation schemes
In the video, Mdm Chua shares how she is unable to receive any benefits from her PG card as she lives on a private property.
However, Madam Chua later added how some of her friends were still entitled to PG benefits as they were registered to their HDB public properties while owning private houses.
She spoke passionately about how the scheme didn’t take into account the years that she had apparently worked previously.
Passing of Mr Lee marked a turning point
The passing of the late Lee Kuan Yew marked a turning point for the PAP, according to Mdm Chua.
She shared how the late Mr Lee had apparently not asked citizens to purchase insurance policies, among other concerns.

Held hammer up in show of support

Netizens wanna vote for the senior auntie

Many of these netizens have also jokingly declared their vote for her in the upcoming election.
An inspiring desire for change
It is always refreshing to see a senior speaking his or her mind in such an endearing and candid manner regarding the elections.
