This move will just kill off all other opposition parties. Any talents who are interested to make any changes will go to WP, other parties will find it hard to attract new blood from now on. As for PSP, it is just a TCB sole proprietorship. Without TCB, PSP is nothing, and without TCB, LHY will not be backing PSP, unless he takes over the leadership. There is one more person beside LHY. LWL! If she and LHY both assume leadership at PSP. It will 3 corners fights on equal platform. She did said not interested in politics though. But we never know.

Lethalstrike Turbocharged July 12, 2020 Share July 12, 2020 3 hours ago, Sturtles said: During BMT and all the passing out parades, we were made to swear to defend "The President, and the Constitution of Singapore" Back then, I thought it was a simple, honest set of rules that dictate what Singapore is defined as. Wouldn't it be a mouthful of words, if we had to recite the constitution with this "19B.—(1) An election for the office of President is reserved for a community if no person belonging to that community has held the office of President for any of the 5 most recent terms of office of the President. (2) A person is qualified to be elected as President — (a)in an election reserved for one community under clause (1), only if the person belongs to the community for which the election is reserved and satisfies the requirements in Article 19; (b)in an election reserved for 2 communities under clause (1) — (i)only if the person satisfies the requirements in Article 19 and belongs to the community from which a person has not held the office of President for the greater number of consecutive terms of office immediately before the election; or (ii)if no person qualifies under sub-paragraph (i), only if the person satisfies the requirements in Article 19 and belongs to the other community for which the election is reserved; and (c)in an election reserved for all 3 communities under clause (1) — (i)only if the person satisfies the requirements in Article 19 and belongs to the community from which a person has not held the office of President for the greatest number of consecutive terms of office immediately before the election; (ii)if no person qualifies under sub-paragraph (i), only if the person satisfies the requirements in Article 19 and belongs to the community from which a person has not held the office of President for the next greatest number of consecutive terms of office immediately before the election; or (iii)if no person qualifies under sub-paragraph (i) or (ii), only if the person satisfies the requirements in Article 19 and belongs to the remaining community. (3) For the purposes of this Article, a person who exercises the functions of the President under Article 22N or 22O is not considered to have held the office of President. (4) The Legislature may, by law — (a)provide for the establishment of one or more committees to decide, for the purposes of this Article, whether a person belongs to the Chinese community, the Malay community or the Indian or other minority communities; (b)prescribe the procedure by which a committee under paragraph (a) decides whether a person belongs to a community; (c)provide for the dispensation of the requirement that a person must belong to a community in order to qualify to be elected as President if, in a reserved election, no person who qualifies to be elected as President under clause (2)(a), (b) or (c) (as the case may be) is nominated as a candidate for election as President; and (d)make such provisions the Legislature considers necessary or expedient to give effect to this Article. (5) No provision of any law made pursuant to this Article is invalid on the ground of inconsistency with Article 12 or is considered to be a differentiating measure under Article 78. (6) In this Article —“community” means — (a)the Chinese community; (b)the Malay community; or (c)the Indian or other minority communities; “person belonging to the Chinese community” means any person who considers himself to be a member of the Chinese community and who is generally accepted as a member of the Chinese community by that community; “person belonging to the Malay community” means any person, whether of the Malay race or otherwise, who considers himself to be a member of the Malay community and who is generally accepted as a member of the Malay community by that community; “person belonging to the Indian or other minority communities” means any person of Indian origin who considers himself to be a member of the Indian community and who is generally accepted as a member of the Indian community by that community, or any person who belongs to any minority community other than the Malay or Indian community; “term of office” includes an uncompleted term of office." Technically, we can have a whole chain of chinese president, if there is a chinese muslim, chinese hindu, because there are backdoor provisions within, which imo does not even make sense to satisfy the tribal need for racial representation. Very racist, very very racist... Given the shifting goalposts and convoluted requirements to be meet, it might as well be changed to C-suite managing 300B, while allowing a house speaker to waltz in. They should just eliminate private sector participation entirely. This presidential requirement thing is becoming a nonsensical farce, that flies in the face of human decency C suite managing 300 billion? Wah I'm not ready for Ho Ching to become President man. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does he have to/need to /want to prove? Give him some slack la.. he really could have retired. I don't doubt his intentions are fundamentally good. Just he isn't a natural born leader in lky, obama... even trump ... when it comes to charisma and personality. But worse... if not him now, then who??? CCS is not a better choice is he.? Singapore now needs hsk to hold the fort more than he needs to be in politics. If want to blame, blame lhl... he screwed up the renewal by delaying until gct kpkb. He poisoned the atmosphere until he couldn't really find anyone to join.. it's like relatives, civil service, and saf... 😑 Who would want to give up a good career and try to bring new ideas to the PAP? CSM, jamus and several opposition candidates did for their parties.. can't say the same for pap. Considering its likely 5 more GE than 5 more years before a full alternative govt can be in place. We ironically cannot afford pap to continue the long slide down. I personally think Singapore is already in the beginnings of a political crisis. Hope I'm wrong... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
