Ho Ching defends Singapore’s election system amid gerrymandering criticisms

First past the post system prevents fringe party from coming up and ends up like US, UK and Japan where two parties are dominant and policies becomes stale and stagnant and eventual capitulation due to corruption.

Proportional representation allows small fringe parties to have a voice in parliament and provide a say in national policies and a more robust debate.

Exactly. The rationale for the GRC has already been disproved. Yep they continue with the scam, thinking we don't know the farce. The only way to get them to abolish it is for them to lose more GRCs, which unfortunately did not happen in GE2025.

Lose more GRCs then pap will put in place bigger GRCs. Soon we get only 4-5 GRCs for whole of Singapore. North South East West Central. Each GRCs 20 pax

When people like the 65% have been imprisoned for too long, they are afraid of life outside that prison, so they take a flight to safety by electing to stay with their jailers.

That could happen! Gerrymander until four GRCs. North SG, South SG, East SG, West SG.

As the Elections Dept is under the PM's Office, the PAP can basically do anything they like to retain power.
