The significance of 30,000 new citizens granted every year .......

[Equalisation]

.... It means in between the 5 years from 2011 to 2016, there will be 150,000 new PAPy votes !!

Quite significant if I may say....!!:o

if you count the hundreds of thousands voting with their feet, it becomes more significant.

Not quite 150,00 new voters. You have to consider the kids who are of non-voting age. Still, even if it is half that, i.e., 75,000, that's a lot of new voters.

Tuan,

The 150,000 represents nearly 7% of total votes if you take the 2011's total votes of 2.2 mil into consideration. As it was, the final tally were 60 to 40%. No wonder carry on mati mati kasi binya. Interesting figures.:o

This may cause future problems. I foresee future "new" citizens deciding to run for office & get support from fellow 'new' citizens. You would have the takeover of Spore by 'foreigners' i.e new citizens

Yes in 20-30 years time, it won't be the Singapore that you and I know it. Anyway, it does not matter. The local Sinkies like you and me won't be around much longer anyway.

My point is that 150k new citizens also includes kids of the new citizens who are non-voting age. As such, I think that, in so far as elections are concerned, new voters by the next GE would likely be around 75k.

This comfirms my suspicions..

Each time I went back to Tampines to visit my parents, I see more and more India Ah Nehs, their Saree clad wives and their young idiotic chimpanzee kids playing noisily under the block..:oIo: :oIo:

 

[soIsee]

So what's the concern about new citizen displacing Sinkie?

The common Sinkie is a doomed specie and is destined to be extinct.

And were you ever concern about those specie which have extincted?

But here you're talking about the effects of these ppl making a substantial portion voting for the pAp.

Did it make any difference or will make any future difference since all you Sinkie ..

HAVE BEEN VOTING FOR THE pap ever since and will remain unchanged? LOL

hi there


1. bro, bingo!
2. old & dafter sheep from the same herd could have passed on hoh.
3. so there is a need to increase its daftness from outside.
4. the newer dafter sheep see things pretty different from the 40%.
5. everything comes so easily for the former!
6. literally paved the way for them.

Many condos at Eastern area also same problem.. These Ah Nehs will always have gatherings by the side of the pool and their kids would swim inside the pool.. Its dangerous to swim together with the Ah Nehs.. Sometimes don't know what sort of disease these Ah Nehs can bring from India..

Any maths expert here ?

Hypothetically speaking, if there is 0 new citizens, the margin will be 53 - 47% ?

Spore is not getting any cheaper & in my opinion only getting worse.
From next year onwards I'll be travelling more to find a new fishing hole. As you say we won't be around much longer:o

Old Singapore and what Singapore is suppose to be like is only in your Head. Singapore has changed, either you live with it or you stay angry & sour at it but It has already changed.
