Remember “The Best Facebook Trick in Singapore General Election” post we wrote about? To find how people think about Mr. Lim Biow Chuan’s Facebook gimmick, we inserted a simple Google Doc poll to let readers do a vote. The response was great with over 500 votes in the last five days. Turned out, most readers hated the Facebook Trick: 69% voted ‘I hate it’ and 19.9% voted ‘I don’t like it.’ In other words, almost 9 out of 10 dislike the Facebook trick.

It is yet another sign of social media struggle from the PAP. Also note that this Facebook gimmick was rolled out by Mr. Lim’s new media team.
Meanwhile, the oppositions are doing well on Facebook. NSP’s Nicole Seah has over 36,000 likes on her Facebook page while WP’s Chen Show Mao has over 10,000 likes so far. Seah is also currently Singapore’s second most popular politician on Facebook.
