I cannot stand two-faced people who complain about Govt.
I will ask : who you vote for ah?
They say : PAP lor !
"Then why you complain when you vote for PAP? Your horse came in, so u must support your horse lor! "
Stupid fools. Vote PAP, then complain PAP govt. ......only those who vote for anti-PAP party have right to complain...... -
True true...

Unfortunately, with the redrawing of electorial boundaries and the creation of GRC style constituencies, the vast number of walkovers simply mean numerous MPs were never VOTED for by the people.Originally posted by Dr Who:I cannot stand two-faced people who complain about Govt.

Take East Coast, Tanjong Pagar and AMK GRCs for example. All returned unopposed to the PAP during the last two elections.
Ever heard of Associate Professor Koo Tsai Kee? He happens to be a GRC member who stood for election since 1991 in Tanjong Pagar GRC, LKY 's Homeground.
NO ONE HAS VOTED FOR HIM IN THE LAST 14 YEARS because no one challenged that constituency.
And he is not alone. -
i find the GRC concept silly.
they should have single wards and take up the challenge. -
GRC makes sense administratively.
If i am na oppositon, I will like teh idea cos I get to win big by focusing my resources on one platform while PAP have to scatter theirs all over the country.
The opposition should take it as an opportunity to take over 4 or 5 seats at one go. This will give the opposition strength in numbers. -
If you are referring to GRCs that have walkovers, then it's not their problem. They don't get to vote.Originally posted by Dr Who:I cannot stand two-faced people who complain about Govt.

If you are referring to others where the opposition challenged the PAP, and these people voted for PAP and complained, then you are right. -
I would prefer to have more platforms so that in case I lose one, I sitll have the others.Originally posted by Salman:GRC makes sense administratively.

The election committee, in an effort to underline greater democracy and freedom of choice, should require ALL constituents of GRCs (even the ones which are unchallenged on the election day) to vote for their party and/or party members (Since many new faces are complete unknowns)
The mandatory majority vote should still be in effect in these cases. That way, if complacency strikes the incumbent party, voters still have a chance to voice their displeasure by abstaining; in the event of failure to obtain a majority mandate, an interim team can be brought in to replace the incumbents and a 2nd round of election may be called in the affected GRCs to confirm the new team's status. -
erpz... your argument here has nothing to do with administration of the country!!!Originally posted by Salman:GRC makes sense administratively.

Hahahaha. In some places, you cannot vote for the opposition party because it simply doesn't exist! In this situation, the PAP just emerge victorious... Interesting right? Even if your area does have an opposition party... Does it make any difference? If you look back in the history of the Republic of Singapore, the PAP dominated in politics and will continue to dominate it!! Complain all you want, the situation will never change. So it is not important whether you vote for PAP or not... The point is that things will not change and you might risk being sued by them for slander/libel (history showed and proved that it happened to a few people who dared to complain and oppose the government!)

the sgp voters tend to support "ministers". all the GRCs are anchored by a strong minister.. so it is almost a shoo-in....Originally posted by Salman:GRC makes sense administratively.

Can u imagine LKY loosing the Tanjong pagar GRC? -
We all should tryOriginally posted by spencer99:Can u imagine LKY loosing the Tanjong pagar GRC? -
I agree. That way we will all get a fair idea of how many supporters they actually or don't have, rather than just the number of supporters the opposition party has. At the same time, I agree that those who vote for PAP then bitch about the PAP are indeed hypocrites.Originally posted by BillyBong:The election committee, in an effort to underline greater democracy and freedom of choice, should require ALL constituents of GRCs (even the ones which are unchallenged on the election day) to vote for their party and/or party members (Since many new faces are complete unknowns)

But you know how scared the government is about giving people too much power, as in the power to vote them out or to register displeasure.

He said 'VOTE'. If theres a walkover, how to vote?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:If you are referring to GRCs that have walkovers, then it's not their problem. They don't get to vote.

Your interpretation skill is worst than ur bad arguements which is at the level of kopitiam talks. -
In the last election, GCT asked for "mandate" and promised "Swiss standard of Living" and "More Good Years Ahead". We all know how the story went and who really got to enjoy the more good years.Originally posted by Dr Who:I cannot stand two-faced people who complain about Govt.

This time, i don't think their tactic is going to work, simpply because they abused the trust placed in them and voters have matured. Now, LHL try to be modest and set himself a lower target. Instead of admitting they overpromised and underdelivered, they say other parties stronger this time round. -
No challenger means default vote mah.Originally posted by mickeysg:He said 'VOTE'. If theres a walkover, how to vote?

Whether you like it or not, Singaporeans have elected our President hor.
No wonder people kpkb, walkover means you are a doormat, let them walk all over you. Like that song bo? Of course not lah! -

You must ask what they are complaining about in the first place b4 u decide that he/she is 2-faced.
Y he vote for PAP? Because he thinks they will do something beneficial for his estate or well-being.
Y is he complaining now? Probably he was mis-leaded? or he feels that the govt can do much more?
btw, we didn vote for the govt. The government is formed by the majority party. In fact, even if PAP loses out to those constitutency that were contested, they will still form the govt because majority of the other GRCs are uncontested... -

The history of Singapore told us the answer already. So don't bother complaining, you are just wasting your time and saliva. -
