NightWind 4th Gear May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 Its very disappointing results.....even with only 60% votes the PAP retains over 80 seats. That shows how unfair the system is Also most importantly INSPITE OF ALL THE ERRORS AND "HONEST MISTAKES" all the million dollar PAP ministers (except for George Yeo) are untouched. THIS SENDS THE MESSAGE TO THEM THAT THEY R UNTOUCHABLE. Can make any kinda mistake....pay themselves million dollar salaries and they will still be untouched. This is nothing to celebrate about...of coz the PAP media will try to potray this election as a "close fight"......who r they trying to kid....80 seats still with PAP...close fight my ass... The blame this time round goes to the 60% who voted the pigs back in power. This is bopund to be thee case as most of this 60% are your uncles and auties or who have a direct or indirect stake in the loot bag shared by the pigs At least the mandate for PAP has weaken a little. TODAYonline: By our count, of the 2,012,976 votes cast in the 2011 GE, 1,211,819 went to PAP - 60.2% of the vote #sgelections [via Twitter] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrolexB 1st Gear May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 Sometimes it is not about PAP that people are angry with, but those civil SERVANTS that make people blood boil. They are just so arrogant and lazy. I know of many who vote the dark side cos they had been bullied by these so-call SERVANTS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was closed to 58% almost at the end of the overall result...the later lost of the alternative parties pushed it to 60.2% subsequently.

They have been loosing votes and should know the results why, just looked at the unconvincing wins of those detested heavy weight in their wards.

Leo72 6th Gear May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 Bear in mind that the 60.2% comprised of some 'new citizens'....and 5-yrs down the road, there'll be more new citizens....we're screwed, the pappies' plan is indeed farsighted.... :angry: You'll be surprised which way the "new citizens" go.

Kelpie 2nd Gear May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 You'll be surprised which way the "new citizens" go. In term of popularity votes, quite certain that they almost gotten all the civil servants, new citizens and old folks votes. So, this is already a disadvantage to the alternative parties. Despite of this advantage, the ruling party only secured barely 60%. It simply means every 10 citizens out there, 4 disapproved of PAP policies.

Tohto Hypersonic May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 I am also very disappointed on the results. Singaporean only know how to complains behind. When time come for them to make a change, all kia see again.

So in a way, they are innocent. If they are to integrate into our systems, they will also soon feel the squeeze. Moreover, not all are into highly paid jobs and may be getting less that the Singaporean counterpart. So in the long run, they may also turned against them.

Picanto 3rd Gear May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 PM's strategy of planting TPL to weaken SM's position as party elder has worked brilliantly. Should MM demise, SM vote count would put him in no position to challenge any decision PM wants to take. TPL is the best trojan horse planted to purge SM. she is going to be the downfall of SM goh. i feel that SM goh should not have accepted her into marine parade grc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopites Supersonic May 8, 2011 Share May 8, 2011 From 66% to 60% a drop of 6% i reckon is significant drop in confidence amongst singaporean on the MIW. Don't be discourage fellow mcfers bros/sis, we have all done our part! Is a good start for our future. When in the history of singapore we have a PM apologising (though doubt on the level of sincerity) this is an achievement. PM sheding crocodile tear. MM publicly threaten singapore. The emerge of creditible opp candiates, young passionate opp candiates. All these are positive pointers that we have achieve thru this election result. Anyway how much was it due to the "internet effect". Anyone got any Stat? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in the long run, they may also turned against them. Regards, i am concern this election might built up an anti-sentiment toward Foreigners. The topic have been brought up time and time again in rallies. Although opp parties keep on stressing they are not anti-foreigner but i am sure there are people thinking otherwise. So we must be very careful here. 2cents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
