A Grass root leader actually put up the white elephant there. You are right on this possibility. Finally if no one dare to ask question or express unhappiness, the only way to show to outside world some democracy working is to get insider grassroot leader to put up some facade of democracy.Originally posted by FireIce:u tink the white elephants relli pressured them meh

Because even you have elections now, the station only starts operating in 8-10 weeks time
But elections can be done within 7 - 8 weeks...

You mean the 'white' elephants? I still think it is the coming election that moves mountains. If the PAP mountains refuse the move, no elephant - white, black, yellow , brown is going to do the trick.Originally posted by Manager433:Xie xie ni WHITE ELEPHANTS
