who in the right mind would go upstream? Oppo will never win

 

[spinning_quirK]

I remember the last time someone said that WP won their first GRC.

Exactly, the correct way for Oppo to win is to claypot the incumbent... that's how it works right?
You keep bragging the Oppo will win big margin, is to claypot the Oppo. Don't go there.

So will Eggmy stand by herself in a SMC with a smaller pool of voters or parachute into another "bao jiak" GRC helmed by PM LW or parachute into west coast GRC under east coast HSK? (Currently missing one MP due to Iswaran)

You all delusional

The biggest hopes and the loudest sound of dissent was during the 2015 GE after LKY died.
All wards were contested
Even the good old Tanjong Pagar had to contest.
People kept saying PAP gonna get toppled. Opposition gonna win many seats

But what happened in the end?

PAP got 70% of the votes! Up by 10% from the previous GE

After that GE, all my hopes were dashed. All the noises and kpkb you always hear online and in real life are merely just the loud few
While the majority stays silent and continues to give their trust in the incumbent no matter what events happened

If voting wasn't mandatory, I wouldn't waste my time at all cos results are always the same

Just take the presidential election results as a good indicator

Then you need to ask yourself why they're treating you like a dirt passing around.

Let’s all vote for pap so we all can get lift upgrades and sheltered walkways around our estate

 

[green72]

I expect changes in this area. It makes sense to the incumbent.
West Coast GRC was won by only 51%. Meaning almost half believes in the alternative.
Whereas this Hong Kah SMC is the incumbent stronghold.
So if add this SMC to the GRC, confirm win if based on last election support.
Futhermore, with Iswaran in jail, having her to helm the party GRC there makes sense.
Don't read too much about reasons like increase population size bla, bla, bla....

 

[klim668]

PAP got jhk vote for them, no scare.

 

[BBClone]

LOL they know Eggmy isn’t going to survive flying solo with her many gaffes

 

[glarerder]

I ish tickled thanks ts

 

[robie_aibo]

cos its prime pap hardcore zone... surrounded by all the anti zone.. many jhk convert around nanyang area.

Tengah new estate also alot of jhk converted to citizens. Think percentage of true blue Singaporeans staying there is lower than the other nationals.

 

[coolmyth]

Many people will turn up for the opposition rallies.

But end up vote for PAP.

新加坡人天生犯贱。

Erm, every time also say about same, every time also got possibility bah.

 

[Racking2322]

If most of the voters cannot afford to queue up for bak gua, then anything can happen.
Have not seen any reports of early queuing for bak gua in recent years.
Or no forum thread is raised about it.

So, did our standard of living really improve ?

Dtf queue seems less too
