After the article ‘YPAP leader paid $10,000 for MM Lee’s book‘ was published, netizens have brought to the attention of The Temasek Review about a Twitter war going on between the said YPAP leader, Mr Cheo Ming Shen and a netizen.
Looking at the Twitter records of Bossming (aka Cheo Ming Shen) and netizen Rocksontan in http://twitter.com/bossming and http://twitter.com/rocksontan, apparently, the Twitter war started when a netizen, Rocksontan tweeted the following in the morning on Monday, 17 Jan:
.
rocksontan: Cheo Ming Shen say LKY is equivalent of Nelson Mandela to Singaporeans?!! Who is this cheebyekia? http://twitpic.com/3qr7mm
It hit a raw nerve on Mr Cheo and understandably, Mr Cheo replied angrily:
bossming: @rocksontan I figure who the fuck are u is a bigger question? Oh wait nobody gives a fuck. So don’t bother answering.
Rocksontan continued at around noon time again:
rocksontan: Lawrence just told me the cheebyekia who say LKY is
like Mandela is from a company call Muffnang. Sell cheebye one ah?

.
Mr Cheo then went on slamming Rocksontan at full throttle:
bossming: @rocksontan it seems there is only one person selling cheebye here. and we know thats you. time to upgrade and sell lampa, naenae, etc. Monday, January 17, 2011 12:28:45 PM via web in reply to rocksontan
bossming: @rocksontan especially since it seems your vocab is limited to hokkien vulgarities. There there, don’t cry, lets go back to your childhood. Monday, January 17, 2011 12:29:48 PM via web in reply to rocksontan
bossming: @rocksontan aiyah since you can’t afford a shrink, i help out lah. lets start at the beginning. Monday, January 17, 2011 12:39:57 PM via TweetDeck in reply to rocksontan
bossming: @rocksontan like perhaps why hiding behind a moniker and your hokkien vulgarities actually make you feel better. Monday, January 17, 2011 12:40:45 PM via TweetDeck in reply to rocksontan
bossming: @rocksontan the only one tainting Nelson Mandela’s name
is you. Freak. Monday, January 17, 2011 12:41:52 PM via TweetDeck in

.
Rocksontan then dedicated a channel to Mr Cheo which further infuriated him:
rocksontan: #WaysLKYislikeMandela They both have white hair #cheomingshen Monday, January 17, 2011 12:55:32 PM via web
bossming: @rocksontan WOW dedicated a channel to me ah. I dedicate one to you also! Nah lovebird #rocksontanlikescheebye Monday, January 17, 2011 1:16:14 PM via TweetDeck in reply to rocksontan
bossming: @rocksontan oh wait forgot to let me beloved followers
know about your channel too. #cheomingshen #rocktanlikescheebye Monday,

.
At this point, Mr Cheo had lost control. He continued to taunt and
dedicate “songs” to Rocksontan for the next hour or so. All this while,
Rocksontan did not reply to Mr Cheo:
bossming: playing with anonymous freaks is quite invigorating. i really understand now why xiaxue enjoys doing it so much. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:27:55 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: @xiaxue eh teach me how to play with anonymous freaks leh. your zhao pai. now i know how you feel. it feels good. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:28:45 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: There is always this lag in the replies though. One afterall has to be careful to use their fake moniker account, and not their real one. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:30:13 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: 1 little 2 little 3 little rocksons. 3 little 4 little 5 little rocksons. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:32:56 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: @rocksontan http://youtu.be/O7CFQLeFuj8 my countdown song to our next correspondence love. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:34:07 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: @rocksontan so much love i give you 2 channels lah. #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela Monday, January 17, 2011 1:38:40 PM via TweetDeck in reply to rocksontan
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela one fought for the unity of a nation despite imprisonment. the other cowers behind a fake moniker Monday, January 17, 2011 1:42:27 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela hoping that his expert use of hokkien vulgarities will not have a lawsuit ringing up his corner. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:43:19 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela one is respected globally, the other relies on his sad humour to drum up all of 800 “followers”. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:47:38 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela at the same time without realising they are probably laughing AT him, not WITH him. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:48:07 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela one was running the country tirelessly, the other shows up only when singapore elections are close Monday, January 17, 2011 1:50:11 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela n figures making fun of the most respected man in the country (bar his true followers), will change sumthing Monday, January 17, 2011 1:51:27 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: #WaysrocksontanisNOTlikemandela one was and is an inspiration and hope to so many. the other a joke. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:53:55 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: Oh @rocksontan I am but a fool, darling I love u, even tho you treat me cruel, but if you leave me, I will surely die. Monday, January 17, 2011 1:57:54 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: http://youtu.be/7PA1FaFlT50 #playilst while waiting for my dear rockson to reply to me. @rocksontan Monday, January 17, 2011 1:58:21 PM via TweetDeck

bossming: If i were a tower of strength I’d walk away, I’d look in your @rocksontan eyes, and heres what I’d say. Monday, January 17, 2011 2:07:49 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: @rocksontab I don’t wantyou, I don’t need you, I don’t love you anymore!!! But a tower of strength is a something I’ll never be. Monday, January 17, 2011 2:08:42 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: @rocksontan http://youtu.be/8P9XorJ_vro Monday, January 17, 2011 2:08:50 PM via TweetDeck
bossming: Rocksonnn dunneed to google for so long to find dirt on
me. Just talk dirty with me direct. Monday, January 17, 2011 2:15:38 PM
via TweetDeck
.
Then, Mr Cheo started to threaten Rocksontan:
bossming: @rocksontan a little birdy told me you live in bukit batok. since you don’t want to meet me online, I will wait everyday at 5pm with a rose Monday, January 17, 2011 2:30:00 PM via TweetDeck in reply to rocksontan
bossming: @rocksontan at the mrt station. Drop your moniker boy. It brings you more trouble than you know. Monday, January 17, 2011 2:30:34 PM via TweetDeck
rocksontan: #WaysLKYislikeMandela Mandela go jail, LKY put you in jail #cheomingshen Monday, January 17, 2011 2:30:41 PM via web
bossming: @rocksontan correction. LKY puts slanderous fools like

In the article ‘YPAP leader paid $10,000 for MM Lee’s book‘,
Mr Cheo has made a few comments on the discussion thread, confirming
the above twitter exchange with netizen Rocksontan. He said, “For the
record, rocksontan went personal on me and called me a ‘cheebyekia’, now
I dunno about you guys, but if somebody gets personal with me, I get
personal back with them.”
Mr Cheo is a highly educated person, a graduate from the prestigeous London School of Economics and Political Science and the YPAP Chairman of Toa Payoh East branch. Even though netizen Rocksontan shouldn’t have thrown vulgarities at Mr Cheo in the first place, but is this the way our future leader is supposed to behave – retaliating with more vulgarities and vindictiveness?
Singapore will be finished if we are to be led by this sort of revengeful PAP leaders in future.

But won't all these controversies give them too much unwanted attention ?
That cannot be good for reputation if you want to go into public office next time.
Or are they into the "bad publicity is also publicity" type of mentality?
same feather mah
The comments are worth reading.
Hmmm....Wouldn't it be interesting to use MM Lee books as incense paper?
Too long didnt read.
What is the essense of the matter ?
I just read a bit about something Twitter.
