How to ensure that no eligible voter is left behind? as in, how to ensure eligible voters get the chance to cast their vote?

The results , when all of them actually really vote, might be astonishing! 8-0

recentlee, there was news reporting on tele about minstors after minstors. In the same news, several in a row were broadcast to the people. It gave me the impression that they are doing many good things for the peepers.

I wonder , its is possiber to bring forward an elecrtion even if the next one is supposedly to be in a few years time?

If won, is it necessarily another 5 years before the next one?

Can it be 7 year period of wait?

logically , hypothetically questioning onlys.

i no no one.

yibah yibah untooneh untooonehneh!

About this Topic.

I like to know, is the PORE a democracy? Is it intended to be a true democracy?

I assume so.

If so, IF the electn is not fair, like GRRC system of boundarification, why the democratic population do not do anything about it?

Given the democratic population no raised issue with this, like petition or something, I take it that the democratic population have spoken.

Thus, status quo. which is good good lah. u believe me ar? which means, u do not beleive me ar?

Assuming there is such a constitution,

why is it that peaceful assembly without arms is not allowed?

Well, given that no poreans demand for this...what can be said?

sigh....

we live in democracy.

The problem is... the check and balance in Singapore is almost non-existent. Take note that you guys here complaining about PAP or individuals from PAP may be facing defamation charges if those PAP individuals want to. The way laws are made and enforced in Singapore needs to be improve. I mean even some aspects of our Constitution are not been followed. Part 2 14) of the Constitution states that all citizens have the right to assemble peaceably and without arms.

I seriously like what the government have contributed to the growth of Singapore but recently, the standard really dropped like flies. Now Singapore have become a haven for the rich and hell for the poor. Middle class people is neither here nor there. Work hard just enough to pay for high living expenses.

Feedback to government and they tell you to downgrade your lifestyle if you can't manage. Haiz...

"Don't insult the intelligence of singaporean, they know how to think and know which Party can serve them well and which Party only talk big"

They know which Party always talk big n make their salaries even bigger. But still.

But really most of us don't vote anyway.

The irony is that so many people are happy about the free holiday.

I hope in the coming GE 2010/11, all oppositions can form an alliance and contest all 84 seats. Don't let them walkover, in this way we can judge the popular votes they can achieve, the previous 66.6% is not accurate because some wards did not contest. If 51 to 49 , then somebody will get heart attack during post election press conference, ambulance must standby, hehehe

its so funny to see a "democratic" country with only 2 opposition member in the whole parliament. and yet still wanting to get rid of the last 2.

check and balance is totally out of the question.

how many of us will follow our hearts and vote what they want, or they just follow the majority which they deem is safer.
I'm also heard rumours about voting is not anonymous though no evidence supporting it. I believe its anonymous as you need to state your IC number there. No name on the paper.

Of course, opposition cant and will not be able to take over control of the country in the next 20~40 yrs or even not at all. depends on the maturity of our citizens, the government's care for people.

Whoever says opposition are gonna take over the government NOW must be trying to make panic and confuse e voters with this kind of statement.

We are still nurtured in way to follow our leader, our government as they will be always choosing the best option for us. It may be true it the past, right now the issue is the young generation which were not planned.

Singapore grow too fast for Singaporean to follow the trend, even though our infrastructure are going to the maturity state, our people like me, still trying our way to get on track with the pace.
Hope more education funds, upgrading funds coming from the government to ease the pains for us. Funds are meant to help, please do more advertisement for people to know how to get the funds meant for them.

With the rising expenses, yet having the same old petty salary, and telling us to save for retirement, its very tough for us to cope with.
Those who are low~mid income will need your help, pls hear the voices.

Last, I will only vote for those who serve the people full heartedly, hear their voices, and full respect to the people she/he serve.

I wouldn’t want the opposition parties to fully run this country as I doubt they have what it takes. We are a small country and one wrong move and we’re done for. However, it would be really nice to have some significant opposition voices too.

now all singaporeans know that the country has so much money. My best guess is that they will want more opposition members to check on the government.

I am not a member of any political party and really ' boey ta hun" and must say something.

What is means the election is not fair- your means our is like Taiwan election, before voting day, bullets suddently shot out from noway. Nobody points a gun at your head and say you must vote for certain Party. Does it means if all singaporean vote for opposition party then the election is called fair.

Don't insult the intelligence of singaporean, they know how to think and know which Party can serve them well and which Party only talk big. Democracy is minority respect the wishes of majority even if it is 51% against 49%.
