    • Do you realise that the Singapore media has never, never, never had an opinion poll for the Singapore government? And the government will probably respond by saying the election results is the mandate.

      So let's do our own, here. Results will be collated one month later, on 20 Apr.

      The question is: Do you support the Singapore government?

      Instructions: NO COMMENTS PLEASE. JUST "yes" or "no". One man one vote.

    • I think its really spastic to put a yes or no answer. As much as the ruling party has been decent in delivering the goods, they have areas to improve as well.

    • Ermm...

      are you guys talking about TRANSPARENCY ?

      wow, we are so so transparent siah.

      u know, I know.

      agree that a yes / no is too simplistic for an answer.

      and lets not overlook the marvelous effect of the ERP.

      So great , more are planted and will be planted.

      congratulations. better sgpore.

      u cannot not belief me right?

      This is very strange indeed.

      I think PAP regime also is aware that there are many who despise them.

      No balls to have an opinion poll.

      All tell PAP to fuck off.

      Pathetic.

    • If they really do an opinion poll, there will be people who condemn them too. They might as well have a by-election, just like what GCT did.

    • i provided yes and no options only... because that's the way an opinion poll is done.

      and during elctions you can only vote PAP and opposition, no such thing as support PAP but don't like ERP.

      No such thing as support PAP but don't like ERP ? If that's the case i think Sembawang or any other wards contested by opposition will have fallen already. Sorry to say but i don't think people cast their vote because they "don't like ERP".

      That's whats wrong with opinion polls too. They give you little choices and rarely does it reflect your opinion.

      well then isn't that the problem of democracy? they give you limited choices and extreme votes, yes or no, but don't allow you to reflect your opinion for the next five years, till the next general elections...

      Well, that is a problem..do you know of a country where every citizen is happy with the government ? Ultimately there will be disgruntled people and on the extreme end, people who have fish bones stuck at the back of their throats till they  gleefully see the death of somebody.

      I do have my grouses but not bad enough to cast a vote for Chee Soon Juan. You can say that I'm happy.

      a yes/no vote is only reflective and accurate if the numbers if great, like several thousand of voters. In this opinion poll, it's unlikely that you'll even have 50 by end of next month.

      and, like many forumers said, it's not as simple as a yes no answer.

       

      how about a tier poll say from 1-7, 1 being an absolute yes, 7 an absolute no, etc. At least even with 50 votes, you can get a feel if most are aggressively yes, or a weak yes.
