Alamak a Parliamentarian wannabe should improve his English. it is "non-existenT vote"

You are just one of the most green eyed monsters SBF forum can find. So the journalist could pay $100k more. Some Singaporean got $100k ahead. Why you so jealous?

Strong coalitions are the exceptions rather than the rule. And with differing ideologies, the "strong" coaliation government just doesn't make any significant step as it will debase the coalition.

Why not just have the death penalty for molest?

Actually I wouldn't mind a PR Upper House which does not have the right to kick governments out. And whose "no vote" can be overriden by (just for example either a 2/3 vote of the lower house or a majority of the lower house + the assent of the President acting in his sole discretion). But a...

The MONGREL who bit his masters' hands LOUDHAILER chee soon juan? Depends on what you post but so far he is full of hot air. Political parties should be winning votes with their manifestos. CSJ (concession to you, I will abbreviate MwbhmhLcsj) on the other hand had the gall to say "my...

Examples? How long do the Likud-Labour governments last? Or the last UK coalitions (before Tory-LDP, which is still on trial)? How about how Paul Martin's government died a horrible death. One difference with a "kingmaker" party and that is the end of the government.

There should be a death penalty for molest.

Any party who hopes to form the government one day, rather than getting seats for the sake of being in the opposition will oppose PR.

Proportional Representation is a recipe for instability. If UK had PR, they would have had no majority governments for the last 100 years! If any minister loses their seats, the boundaries just need to be redrawn. Boundary drawing is the prerogative of any democratically elected government...

Is it spam if the message is different? Take a look at all of cass888's messages. There has always been a point to them. Just because a spade is called a spade and a MONGREL who bit his masters' hands LOUDHAILER chee soon juan is called a MONGREL who bit his masters' hands LOUDHAILER chee soon...

What is wrong with first-past-the-post? US has it. UK has it. Australia has it. Canada has it. Does anyone deny that any of the foregoing are undemocratic?

Nothing to do with hardcore PAP or hardcore opposition. They will always be there. Under the first-past-the-post system, you merely need to please 1 vote more than 50% of the people. Everything else is bonus. And any politician will tell you that when you try to please everybody, you please...

As long as I don't get agitated by the "Chee Soon Juan is God" and "Everybody who doesn't behave like Chee Soon Juan is a pappy dog" posts. :p

Property ownership information in Malaysia is public. All you need is for your friend to have an enemy to tip off the HDB and he will be surrendering his $400k HDB flat for $150k.

To use your logic, UK parties should have cried foul when 35% of the vote gets you 60% of the seats? PR has been shown again and again to cause much instability.

RP will probably get at least two NCMPs since they will probably be amongst the top GRC performers. In Parliament, you compare the performance of GMS or CTL with that of KJ or for that matter Gerald Giam or Glenda Han or Perry Tong if they are still in the running and who do you think is going...

Typical oppo dog type of objection. Singapore is so small and managed 8. A quick and dirty calculation will already tell you that Singapore's number PER CAPITA way surpasses all the rest of the countries, although to be fully objective, Hong Kong may be higher if it were assessed separately...

Why? After all you, like GMS, will remain down and out. And it is not *he*

You too will remain down and out.
