Why is your MND minister disabling comments on blog?

  Yo i was just looking at his blog, forgot his name... Thaw boon whatever... anyway, he's the MND housing scandal $880,000- honcho dude in charge of it.

   

  Anyone wonder why he has disabled the comments section of his blog?  If it's a personal blog, surely he should have some guts to allow comments and at least allow opportunities for himself or his aides (the ones who might manage his blog for him as is done for some senators in America) to respond to comments, that would at least show some back-bone.  But perhaps because it's an MND official blog, that's why comments are disabled because it is run like a website, but then again why would a ministry keep a blog?

  From what we know, MNDSingapore.wordpress.com is set up by MND to become some sort of a somewhat semi-formal press release blog for official news of MND, HDB and all of MND's subsidiaries and government agencies such as AVA, BCA, NParks under the purview of MND.

  If you want to engage Mr Khaw, you can freely converse constructively with him 'live' in his facebook's comments @ http://www.facebook.com/pages/Khaw-Boon-Wan/159098450816050.

  This might be so as Mr Khaw might not doesn't want to talk to trolls, faceless people.
  e.g. 1 person can poses as many people to talk to him as if there are many people engage him in a constructive manner when there is actually only 1 person with many nicknames and those trolls.

  Only noise from the PAP MPs and million dollar paid ministers are allowed.   

  Good example, noise from Kee Chew Chan Chun Sing.

  if its his personal blog, its up to him whether he wants to let you post comments or not. If its the minitry's blog, its up to them whether they want to let you post comments or not. So there.

  If blogs are meant to allow you to post comments all the time, that feature to disable comments wouldn't even be there!

  you talking to our government? we have enough of foreigners in Singapore, we don't need more foreigners from outside Singapore to tell our government what to do. The government should listen to Singaporean only.

  Why block? you can stop constipation?

  Don't even know facts yet barking at the wrong tree here.   There is no Taiwanese here.   But there is a Malaysian PR who bought Singapore HDB flat here to slam born and bred citizens when he reads posts that does not please his ego.    So shall we send our posts to him for his vetting before we post here to seek his approval?
