The current operating assumptions by the PAP (and shared by Singaporeans at large) are that it will
1) continue to find and select the right people to join the government;
2) remain non-corrupt; and
3) remain in power perpetually.

As a result, there has been a lack of focus on developing the necessary checks and balances in the system. If and when one of the assumptions break down, we may find ourselves in deep trouble…

1. The Constitution is online, last time I checked, because I asked once in an online forum — and the PAPs heard — why this most important piece of legalese was not online and shortly after, it was. But you will never find a single clause that states this possibility of a voted-out PAP MP or Minister waltzing back into the Cabinet. LIE KY LHL PAP are too dishonest to state that explicitly since it is their backdoor route back into power and millions — big motivations for greedy and corrupt men like them.

2. Rather, you will have to note that THERE ARE NO DISQUALIFICATIONS OR PROHIBITIONS FOR A NOMINATED MP BEING MADE A MINISTER. So, this carefully created backdoor is never mentioned in the PAPaganda media or by the PAPs themselves but they all know the possibility. Remember LIE KY kept warning about “freak elections results”? So he prepared for this 1. Just like calling out the army if the entire PAP govt is voted out. Preparations long made and contingent plans worked out, who does what to whom, etc.

3. In the Constitution, the Nominated MP has the same legal and parliamentary status as an elected MP, except for pay [allowance] and some voting restrictions, I believe. So any NMP can become Minister or even PM. So “freak results” prepared for.

4. I had a short exchange of emails with Warren? Fernandez of the Straits Times years ago in which he admitted and acknowledged this possibility and he is 1 of those trusted and in the know; also in the right circles.

It’s not tenable and frankly, the wider the scope of political participation and liberalisation to allow for greater ownership and less schadenfreude in domestic politics, the greater the effect this has on enhancing our existence for the long term.

What’s afflicting Singapore is the current state of its socio-political dynamics.

Who’s up for public service? Wait, do I see hands going down.

Yeap, I do. And I roughly know why.

But I hope more are able to reckon the missives involved.

I have waited for this topic to be ‘old’ to quietly tell you that… Your ‘analysis’ is wrong lah~ :)

Trust me…

As for the next PM, it’d probably not be someone in parliament right now. After MM Lee, will there be another MM is a question in itself. Hahahahahaha…

Given the future, the succeeding PM, for the sake of the party and Singapore, he/she must be excellent in politics, yet must be young enough to pull a regime off for enough time for internal and external confrontation.

The Law minister’s appointment is a show for all to realise the essence of political appointment: From the bottom to the top, or from the top falling to bottom… anything can happen. The signal is very strong.

There is no need to guess. In politics, and if pragmatism must be, the coming political appointments will be astonishing. No choice, the global scene is changed, the domestic matters are changed drastically; but Singaporeans…

That’s news! Is it possible for you to direct us to the relevant sections of the Constitution please? Thanks.

In reply to your misreading of the Constitution and LIE KY LHL PAP’s unscrupulous, dishonest, election-cheating, corrupt, greedy and totalitarian rule, THE CONSTITUTION WAS AMENDED TO ALLOW FOR A VOTED-OUT PAP MP TO REMAIN IN THE CABINET.

2. How? Through the carefully prepared method of ‘Nominated MPs’. This Constitutional amendment was rubberstamped through and never mentioned by the PAPaganda media for this possibility. If and when LHL loses an election, he will simply be ‘Nominated’ as Nominated MP, which being a MP title, then allows him to be appointed back into the Cabinet as minister.

3. Do read the Constitution again. The entire system is not only corrupted, but rigged to be failsafe — for the LIEs.

Free Thinker, So if both the president and the PM are Chinese, then its alright?

====================================

Hi Angrez,

No, if both President and PM are Chinese, also not alright. From past experiences, only two Chinese Presidents, i.e. the late Wee Kim Wee and Ong Teng Cheong. Wee was more penarakan than Chinese, so no problem – smooth sailing all the way; but Ong was very Chinese, as he had a Chinese-education background, so big big problem. Best is never to have same race between PM and President. Like this will be good for local multi-racial consumption as well as for international, foreign-relations, image projection.

That is what I personally think, freely think.

But what I have said earlier was on what I’d thought what LHL’s thinking was. I was only trying to read his mind, albeit very amateurish.

Have I answered your question?

A: Being a non-entity when compared to one’s father.

B: Having a non-entity as a son.

i can answer for him, cos this one clear cut one. hahaha answer is found in Article 25 of the singapore constitution.

1) If he loses the election in his ward, he will no longer be an MP. and so is not in parliament. so cannot be PM.

2) The president is the one selecting the PM.

3) not quite sure what your third question means. but.. whatever it is i believe they’ll follow the procedures set. as to how independent it is is another question.

Shouldn’t the other 33% singaporean votes translate to a more proportional representation in parliament and cabinet?

Such a formula by the PAP is in fact, setting Singapore up for social chaos sooner or later because there will be a growing significant proportion of singapore’s society which is NOT BEING REPRESENTED, marginalized and ignored.

The question is not if, but when.

Wee Toon Boon – Corruption
Phey Yew Kok – Corrupted Embezzle and dissappeared
Teh Chean Wan – Corrupted
3 down and more to come
with the current cocky style it made not difference
because 60 pct of Sporeans are complacent not to care and take control by voting them out

Wong Can’t Sing will be promoted out of the way to be the next Singapore President.

Spend his multi-million dollar salary cutting ribbons, patronizing boy scouts, attending gala dinners, rejecting the occasional presidential appeal, rubber stamping whatever the PAP puts before him, and oh, safeguarding our national reserves when he don’t even have an idea how much there is because it will take 56 man years to account for them.

It will be a case of Wong Can’t Sing and Can’t Count.
