SINGAPORE, Aug 21 — Only “a very small minority” of people find his social media posts describing his encounters with “pretty girls” in Singapore “uncomfortable”, said presidential hopeful Tan Kin Lian today, adding that “most people find them enjoyable”.

When asked to address online users’ concerns about the appropriate nature of such posts, Tan said today that having such “light” content is how he gets “people to be interested” in his posts. Continuing on the topic of his social media posts, Tan said that while many of them are “simple” by nature — like posting about buying fish ball noodle soup on his visit to a food centre — they can “reach 100,000... 200,000 people”.

However, Tan said that the Majulah package, which will provide Singaporeans aged 50 and above this year with Central Provident Fund top-ups, could be “more comprehensive”. “Of course, I think the Prime Minister has his reasons, but my view is we should provide help to everybody.”
