[GE2025] Extensive changes to electoral boundaries due to population shifts; only 5 GRCs, 4 SMCs left intact

[Orionz]

Correct~!
President Shanmugan aalso technically notch politically affiliated~

 

[eAtNeAt]

But who decides their pay.
Who makes the final decision.
What is the rules behind the redraw.

 

[GenXYZ]

Here in this world, they can say what ever they want. But truth of the matter, only God knows. These people in positions of responsibility and power should know that they will have to answer to Him one way or another for the millions of people here that they are in charge of.

 

[mubz96]

i thought they can't touch opposition party held wards? otherwise, wp will make noise. so it is actually strange they can modify at the edge of the opposite ward.

Is this the 1st time it has been done to opposite ward?


Read HWZ Forum Rules!

 

[gwbasic]

MIW has just removed 3900 voters from Aljunied GRC ,out of 147,000 voters.
3900 voters ,less than 3 % of GRC voters,are in 2 condo and new BTO estate.
who know how many pro WP?
The removal may help WP.

"GST is to help the poor."

 

[Evcats]

chat gpt products ?

can give example on each of the above claims please ?
dunt anyhow say..

Wah lau eh, you want examples ah? Confirm plus chop, I give you real-life examples of how the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee (EBRC) anyhow wayang with boundaries to give PAP advantage. No anyhow say, all facts one! Let’s break it down Singlish-style with humor and receipts:

---

**1. "Merge Opposition Strongholds" ​

• Example: Joo Chiat SMC (2011 vs. 2020)
  • 2011: WP’s Yee Jenn Jong nearly won Joo Chiat SMC with 49.0% of the vote. Wah, almost kena upset!
  • 2020: Joo Chiat SMC disappeared and was absorbed into Marine Parade GRC. Wah, like that how to win?
  • Outcome: PAP won Marine Parade GRC comfortably in 2020. Opposition stronghold? Gone lah!

---

**2. "Carve Out Safe Seats" ​

• Example: MacPherson SMC (2015)
  • Before 2015: MacPherson was part of Marine Parade GRC, which PAP won comfortably.
  • 2015: MacPherson was carved out as an SMC. PAP’s Tin Pei Ling won with 65.6% of the vote. Wah, like that how to lose?
  • Outcome: A safe seat was created, ensuring PAP dominance in the area.

---

**3. "Split Opposition Votes" ​

• Example: Punggol East SMC (2013 vs. 2020)
  • 2013: WP’s Lee Li Lian won Punggol East SMC in a by-election with 54.5% of the vote. Wah, PAP kena shock!
  • 2020: Punggol East SMC was absorbed into Sengkang GRC. Wah, like that how to win?
  • Outcome: WP still won Sengkang GRC in 2020, but the boundary change diluted opposition support in the area.

---

**4. "No Fixed Rules" ​

• Example: Fengshan SMC (2015 vs. 2020)
  • 2015: Fengshan SMC was created, and PAP’s Cheryl Chan won with 57.5% of the vote.
  • 2020: Fengshan SMC disappeared and was absorbed into East Coast GRC. Wah, like that how to win?
  • Outcome: PAP won East Coast GRC narrowly in 2020. Opposition stronghold? Gone lah!

---

**5. "GRC System" ​

• Example: Aljunied GRC (2011 vs. 2020)
  • 2011: WP won Aljunied GRC with 54.7% of the vote. Wah, historic win!
  • 2020: Parts of Aljunied GRC were moved to Marine Parade GRC. Wah, like that how to win?
  • Outcome: WP retained Aljunied GRC in 2020, but the boundary change diluted opposition support in the area.

---

**6. "Frequent Changes" ​

• Example: Boundary Changes Before 2020 GE
  • The EBRC redrew boundaries just months before the 2020 General Election, causing confusion and kancheong among voters. Wah, like that how to win?
  • Outcome: Some voters were moved from opposition-leaning areas to PAP-friendly GRCs, diluting opposition support.

---

**7. "Public Sentiment" ​

• Example: Voter Confusion in 2020
  • Many voters anyhow kancheong because their constituency changed just before the election. Wah, like that how to win?
  • Outcome: Some opposition supporters were moved to PAP-friendly areas, reducing their impact.

---

Conclusion​

Eh, EBRC anyhow redraw boundaries to maximize PAP’s chances of winning, while opposition anyhow struggle to keep up. Like that how to win?

But hor, voters should stay informed, vote wisely, and make their voices heard. Steady lah, we all just trying to survive in this kiasu world together!

 

[sseasea]

These are the ppl voted for them
better replace with our beloved new citi
Sorry I mean our fellow comrades

 

[fandango]

summary--PSP have not been fixed in GE boundary..

let me compare the PSP contested areas in 2020 and 2025 boundary below.

PSP still get almost the same turf to fight in 2020 GE.
unlike some hard core opp supports think miw to fix psp in 2025.


let me explain
pl refer to maps of various GE at the last of this news
https://www.channelnewsasia.com/interactives/ge2025-singapore-electoral-boundary-map-changes-4992996


PSP contested constituency area in 2020
Cck GRC--changed



unless you think the portions removed are more psp supporters than pap, then

no one get the advantages of the change.


Opp get more SMC to fight too, For Opp, they can easier to fight in SMC, because GRC need

minority candidate.

Hong Kah North SMC—removed-- some PSP supporters will cry .

this is the only fixed constituency area..

Kebun Baru smc—unchanged
Marymount smc—unchanged

Nee Soon GRC—unchanged
Pioneer smc--unchanged

Tg pg –portion become Queentowns smc, and Added constituency area.

not a disadvantage to psp.. they can fight in new smc..


Wc—2020 plus Added constituency area,, same lah ,,psp not fixed..
YCK smc — removed small portion.

summary--PSP have not been fixed in GE boundary..

Why your font size so big?

Given that general election is around the corner, GE topics became common topics at coffee shops, F&B outlets, offices, etc.

If one has observed carefully, the time for a change in Singapore has not arrived. It could be in the next few hundred years later until the chosen one from the opposition appeared.

Forget about the opposition forming the government to lead the country, it will never happen in the next few hundreds years until the chosen one appears.

What the opposition should be focusing on is to win 1/3 seats in the parliament, and not forming the government. Before learning how to walk, you wanted to run. You will fail miserably. By winning 1/3 seats in the parliament, you will learn how to run Singapore, etc. Learn from the PAP, be humble, learn from them on the good things that they have done, and ignore those who are bad practices, etc. Opposition needs a few decades of skills to maneuver in politics.

A reality check - look at what all the opposition parties are doing. All of them have their own hidden agendas, killing one another if possible. There is no unity. Each wanted to be an Indian chief. Singapore is a very small country, and we have so many opposition parties. For what? You will definitely lose in all elections because of dilution of votes. Until the main opposition is strong enough, the landscape will then create a more favorable time for more opposition parties. The time has not come, and there is no need to have so many opposition parties.

In this up coming election, PAP will have a landslide victory due to the redrawn of the electoral boundaries. None of the opposition is ready to face the new boundaries.

There is no need to KPKB about why the new boundaries are created, etc. One must always remember that the victor says it all. In politics, it is even more paramount.

Interesting moves by PAP.

1) Chee was defeated by a newbie PAP candidate Murali. This clearly shows that Chee will never win in any elections. You can't even defeat a newbie, that alone other heavy weights from PAP. What Chee should be doing for the past years should be grooming new candidates that are creditable, etc.

However, PAP notices that SDP is only strong in Bukit Batok. The best way to get rid of the root of SDP once and for all is to merge Bukit Batok into Jurong East new GRC. This will completely wipe off any potential threats from SDP. SDP has no chance at all in other constituencies as they are too weak.

2) PSP led by Dr Tan is a real threat at West Coast GRC. Again, PAP notices that PSP is only strong in West Coast. The best way to get rid of the root of PSP is to merge West Coast GRC into West Coast-Jurong West new GRC. This will completely wipe off any potential threats from PSP. PSP has no chance at all in other constituencies as they are too weak.

3) WP led by PS and SL at Aljunied GRC with minor changes. The threat is relatively low now given that LTK has stepped down and both PS & SL reputations are tarnished in the RK's saga, PAP stands a very good chance to reclaim Aljunied.

Almost all the GRCs and SMCs are guaranteed win by PAP except Hougang SMC.

Aljunied, Punggol and East Coast GRCs will be a close fight between WP and PAP.

West Coast-Jurong West GRC will be a close fight between PSP and PAP.

The rest of opposition parties stand zero chance at all. Some of them could even lose their deposits.

 

[tExtra]

No fear. Pap will clean sweep this time. Oppies die pain pain.

Ya. House advantage ++

 

[footi3]

in after patrick tze

 

[marksnow44]

Sure , sure the one in charge of the Boundary are not politically motivated, but the ones that tell them how to do ARE !!!!!!!

 

[pspandwp]

Eh, the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee (EBRC)ah, confirm got people anyhow speculate lah! Let’s break it down Singlish-style with humor and logic:

---

**1. "Merge Opposition Strongholds" ​

• How It Works: If an area votes heavily for opposition, PAP might merge it into a GRC (Group Representation Constituency) with PAP-friendly areas. Like that how to win?
• Example: In 2020, Joo Chiat SMC disappeared into Marine Parade GRC after WP nearly won it in 2011. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

**2. "Carve Out Safe Seats" ​

• How It Works: Create new SMCs (Single Member Constituencies) in areas where PAP is strong. Wah, like that how to lose?
• Example: In 2015, MacPherson SMC was carved out of Marine Parade GRC, which PAP won comfortably. Like that how to win?

---

**3. "Split Opposition Votes" ​

• How It Works: Redraw boundaries to dilute opposition support. Like that how to win?
• Example: In 2020, Punggol East SMC was absorbed into Sengkang GRC after WP won it in 2013. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

**4. "No Fixed Rules" ​

• How It Works: The EBRC doesn’t have to explain why they change boundaries. They just say “trust us lah” and anyhow redraw. Like that how to win?
• Example: In 2020, the EBRC redrew boundaries without clear justification, leading to speculation of gerrymandering. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

**5. "GRC System" ​

• How It Works: Opposition needs to win a majority in a GRC to get a seat, while PAP only needs to win one strong candidate. Like that how to win?
• Example: In 2020, WP won Sengkang GRC with 52.1%of the vote, but PAP won West Coast GRC with 51.7%. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

**6. "Frequent Changes" ​

• How It Works: Boundaries change every election, making it hard for opposition to build a strong base. Like that how to win?
• Example: In 2020, the EBRC redrew boundaries just months before the election, causing confusion and kancheong among voters. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

**7. "Public Sentiment" ​

• How It Works: Voters anyhow kancheong because their constituency might change. Like that how to win?
• Example: In 2020, some voters were moved from Aljunied GRC to Marine Parade GRC, diluting WP’s support. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

Conclusion​

Eh, EBRC anyhow redraw boundaries to maximize PAP’s chances of winning, while opposition anyhow struggle to keep up. Like that how to win?

But hor, voters should stay informed, vote wisely, and make their voices heard. Steady lah, we all just trying to survive in this kiasu world together!

bro, you have summarized it very well, Thank You

Mr Lee Kuan Yew said the day New Government will form by WP PSP OPPO mUST come

Mr Lee Kuan Yew sure knew what he said because the gerrymandering tool whites are using is getting blunt after every GE because of ONE law of human nature

which is

ONCE a white supporter turns against white clan, this white supporter NEVER turns back

in other words, a WP PSP OPPO supporter votes WP PSP OPPO GE after GE after GE until whites become new oppo in Parliament

IBs never knew this that although population is increased every year by 20,000 aliens as New Citizens, these become old bird very quickly and once these turn against whites, whites lose more votes

that is why although by the tricks of whites they have been winning every GE, the data show the percentage garnered by WP PSP OPPO is actually increasing after every GE

IBs twist the truth by saying whites win because whites are popular, and the truth is, it AIN'T so

whites will lose soon. Mr Lee Kuan Yew said it mUST come. And Mr Lee Kuan Yew is right

 

[Evcats]

"EBRC’s Possible Strategy" ​

• Targeted Adjustments: EBRC might be making small, strategic changes to Aljunied GRC to test the waters. Wah, like that how to win?
• Avoiding Backlash: By leaving Hougang and Sengkang untouched, EBRC avoids public outcry and accusations of gerrymandering. Wah, like that how to lose?

---

Conclusion: Steady Lah, EBRC! ​

• PAP’s Advantage: Removing 3900 voters from Aljunied GRC could weaken WP’s support in a key battleground.
• WP’s Resilience: If the remaining voters are strongly pro-WP, the impact might be minimal.

Steady lah, EBRC! You say no wayang, but your moves anyhow stir the pot. Voters should stay informed, vote wisely, and make their voices heard. We all just trying to survive in this kiasu world together!
