Hi guys, as the election is around the corner, I will like to know what fellow biker bros/sis here think abt the coming election.

 

http://www.pap.org.sg/uploads/ap/917...rjit_singh.pdf :sian:

 

SINGAPORE (AP) -- Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong offered an apology Friday if he offended anyone by saying he would need to "fix" the opposition if they won too many seats in Parliament at weekend elections.

 

Opposition leaders demanded an explanation from Lee after he made the remarks at a campaign rally on Wednesday.

 

In the remarks, Lee said that if the opposition were to hold 10 to 20 seats in Parliament he would have to spend more time dealing with them, which would distract some of his attention from running the government.

 

"Instead of spending my time thinking of what is the right policy for Singapore, I have to spend all my time thinking what is the right way to fix them, what's the right way to buy my own supporters over," Lee said.

 

At a campaign rally on Thursday night, leaders of the opposition Workers' Party demanded an explanation from the prime minister

 

A statement from Lee's press secretary Chen Hwai Liang said, "What (the) PM meant by his remark was that if there were many more opposition MPs in Parliament, the government and opposition would spend all their time and energies countering each other, and Singapore would be worse off for it."

 

"He used direct language to get this important point across to a mass rally crowd. If the exact words he used offended, he is sorry," the statement said.

 

Singaporeans cast their votes Saturday in an election expected to be dominated by Lee's ruling People's Action Party, which has governed the country for more than four decades and is credited with bringing growth and stability to the resource-scarce tiny territory.

 

Opposition parties currently hold two out of 84 elected seats in Parliament, and Lee's People's Action Party hold the rest.

Hey guys wat are the amount of people voting in ur area? I read online and saw that my area (Jalan Besar) got 90k people voting and thats means have to queue very long le

The 90k would be separated out. People like from bendeemer, Bukit Merah and etc. would have their own location to queue up during polling day.

From the look of it, I guess many of us do not really bother abt the elections. :sian: which is what i guess initially..

i don't really care abt the elections now than before..

 

days ago, b4 the nomination day, i was excited about the election on the assumption that i gotta vote in this coming election.. until i found out that you have to be 21 years as at 1/1/2006.

 

obviously, i wasn't 21 years old at that time and so my interest in this coming election went down to rock bottom..

 

talk abt progress package? talk abt NSS? talk abt ESS? talk abt being the 1st batch of ppl to take IC at age 15? talk abt PSLE results kena screwed? we ppl born in 1985 gets it all..

 

on top of it, not only we missed out the NSS, ERS and the progress package, the gahment implement the GST 5% for all ages..

 

:sian:

05.04 - 08.04: Honda Wave S (FV)

08.04 - 05.09: Honda Version S (FP)

09.08 - 08.10: Honda ESi 4dr (SBV)

04.11 - 02.12: Ducati 749 (FY)

05.09 - 07.14: Honda Wave X (FBD)

07.14 - 09.15: Yamaha Tmax 530 (FBH)

11.13 - 09.15: Honda City (SGA)

 

09.15 - Current: Honda Jazz (SKV)

sigh...this is the sad but true state of our political scene...

 

most people dont care abt it anyway...

 

because even though the PAP has not been returned to power on Nomination Day this time..the 1st time since 1988...we all still know who our Govt will be..no doubt abt it..

 

all i ask for is for some Opposition voices in the house...

 

a GRC and 3 single seat would be a very good result for the opposition...

Don't mess with old farts. Age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill.

Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.
