SINGAPORE — Presidential candidate Ng Kok Song is hoping to win over voters by gaining their trust and showing he is sincere.
Mr Ng was taking part in the Meet Our Presidential Candidates series organised by the National University of Singapore Society . The dialogue was moderated by Assistant Professor Walid Jumblatt Abdullah, from Nanyang Technological University's School of Social Sciences. Mr Ng also acknowledged that his lack of fluency in Mandarin is a disadvantage. Although he speaks Teochew, he pointed out that Teochews make up only about 20 per cent of the Chinese resident population.
Mr Ng replied that he not only wanted to ensure there was no walkover, but also believed he had the expertise in handling the country's reserves.
