Election fever - Why so high this time round?

[Without_a_car]

HK is the same, limited land. My old uncle living in HK and told me the medical benefit is very good. He did a bypass and spend very little. Their HK govt really take care of old folks. And some restaurants, offers free drinks to old folks during off-peak hours. In Sg, everything is money here and money there.

 

HK supposedly have more land and space than Singapore but due to its hilly terrain, they actually have less available space for public housing.

Hong Kong has the benefit of having China as it's hinterland, which imports cheap produce. Singapore on the other hand, does not have this benefit.

 

More Good Years

[I-LOVE-CARS]

More good years...

[Ladykillerz]

a few years, one time event. of course must be excited.

living in SG is actually kinda boring, don't you reckon so?

Colleagues in office talks about election today. Many wishful of a holiday.

 

Coffeeshop uncles also talk about election when I went to ta-pao my dinner just now.

 

My mum also told me election coming while having dinner with the TV news on.

 

Seems like Singapore is very much intune to this coming election!

 

What is the real reason for the much enthusiasm?

Does citizen very eager to make their voices known? But which direction?

 

I mean normally people who wants to oppose or highlight something will look forward to EOGM and elections.

 

I dont understand why the hugh enthusiasms as most people will still vote the incumbent into power(My opinion).

Or will this time be a different outcome?

 

Its like the EPL. Before season starts, very exciting. But always the same few teams win.

sure can't deny that. it's all give and take. I wouldn't like to see our ladies here get dragged along the streets by the straps of their handbags... in return i gave up bahkwa, have not bought it for donkey years.

[Duckduck]

just realised that with the new SMCs, unless opposition party get more members to contest the new positions, effectively its diluting the effect of the current opposition party size?

 

Maybe its their way of introducing more opposition members, but by virtue of the large number of SMCs available, their influence is actually smaller or equal... smart way of introducing more oppositions but effectively no difference as an overall %.

 

its like issuing more shares in a coy, unless u can subscribe to the pro-rated amt, ure gona b diluted!

Who are the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee?

What's the main criteria for setting the various boundary and setting smc or grc?

I mean it must be for the good of citizens right?

Or for the good of Singapore?

for me at least this time round is good.

 

I stay near YCK MRT in Ang Mo Kio but under Nee Soon South GRC. Ask MP about plans for land beside YCK MRT, she says dunno, not her basa...

 

now they redraw the boundary PROPERLY. Nee Soon is Nee Soon GRC. The WHOLE of AMK is under AMK GRC which is good.

 

I thought this time the boundary seems to be more "logical" than the last GE.

 

 

[Yaloryalor]

I suppose this time GE will be more interesting!

 

Many ppl complain here complain there. Lets see hows the outcome of the GE.
