The Elections Department (ELD) has started calling on public servants to start their training to be election officials.
The deadline for the election is January 2017.
It is understood that several teachers have received letters informing them that they have been identified as election officials and told that they must complete an online training module and an in-person training shortly.
The ELD confirmed that they have started to prepare election officials but they also shared that this is actually an ongoing practice where they select and train public officers to perform election duties.
They left it ambiguous as to whether they had just started stepping up the preparation efforts.

Some of the election official roles include overseeing voting at polling stations.
In the 2006 selection, public servants were called up for training about 18 months before the election while for the 2011 elections, public officers started training up to 31 months before the elections.
It is yet unknown when the government plans to hold the next election but it is clear that some of the preparatory work has started.

[eErotica69]

I haven't got any bloody clue, I only know after 1988, my kakis and I have made it a point to vote the PAP out.

 

[xingguy]

Two friends of mine, new citizens, would vote in the opposition.

agree with you. some are still stuck in May 2011 mode and think the pap enjoys 60% support. I think the pap maybe has 50.1% or below support now.

Next GE will be interesting if the pap continues to intimidate Singaporeans, fix WP, uses one law for Singaporeans and another for foreigners

....and telling the world that sinkie land belongs to every one. Since the papees see sinkies "no up", why vote for paps?

yes...vote out the pap

 

[Leongsam]

I checked with all my sinkie friends and all of them will be voting for the PAP along with the rest of their families

They fully agree with most of the policies of the party and have 100% confidence in LHL and his team.

I'm predicting a rise in support for the PAP in the next election by at least 7%.

PAP would be lucky to get 55%.

Years ago, papees' por lum pars used to tell sinkies the vote was not secret. People were scared and put their votes for paps.

Today, when young NS men climbed HDB rooftop to screw the paps and sinkies openly condemned the MIW, the fear of voting for the oppo parties is no more.

Seeing the papee MP for help is no magic cure. He cannot help you if the odds are stacked against you. Try it and you will know the papee MP is just as useless as a petition writer.

I agree. The pap is banking on new citizens to stop the slide in votes. The pap may be surprised that new citizens are equally angry with the pap.

The vote may even be lower than 55%

It's an interesting GE

PAP Mps will soon realise that they are being made used of by the Lee family.

Look at Hong Hai...ditched after he was made used of to come out with the COE scheme

If the papees performed better in GE2016 than GE2011, LHL would bring in more foreigners after GE2016 and the misery of sinkies would never end.

The only message that LHL would take seriously from sinkies is when the papees are hantam badly in GE2016, so bad that even LKY would kick his butt.

Those in the admin services are paid to think out of the box on how to collect more taxes from sinkies but none of them has an idea about how to deal with the lawless foreigners in the country, those monkeys who whacked sinkies as if they are still the colonial masters of sinkie land and sinkies are the coolies in the colonial days for them to whack when they are buay song.

 

[Papsmearer]

I predict PAP will win less than 50%. Between 40-49%.

Agree. It will be the biggest loss for them since independence.
