  This guy is an enigma given his past and relation to his father.

   

  Funny how this election, we have got a lot of unusual characters being introduced as incumbent party candidates.

  Then again, will the people choose correctly? Or are their choices correct?

  

  How about the force of 300,000 new citizens?

  If the incumbents don't get at least 60% even with the support of these new citizens, then times must be really bad.

  Unfortunately they only need 51% to take the whole GRC.

  A GRC has about 140,000 voters. 1% is only 1,400. 300,000 new citizens are unstoppable.

  You betcha they redrew the boundaries and located new HDB blocks to take these people into account.

  2006 being the lowest vote in history and Foreigner Flood after that are no coincidence.

  I would agree that the new citizens are a force to reckon with.

   

  Think could add at least ten percent to their total votes.

  ditzy is right , the new citizens shouldn't bite the hands that feed them. Look at how pap developed singapore into. A worldclass infrastructure country. Giving you a peaceful and comfortable life. And yet you guys are still complaining.

  7 million is not comfortable.

  Anyway, whether we want a peaceful and comfortable life or not is the people's right to choose.

  7 million is barely enough.

   

  I hope for 10 - 20 million in the next 5 years.

   

  I want high GDP.

  It will be interesting to see how these new citizens will affect total votes for their repsective GRCs.

  DR Puthucheary can standby to help Khaw in case he suffer a relapse from such vigorous political activities in the coming GE.

  Good ex-Malaysians tack team.

  Imagine if one day, all the members of a GRC were all previously from other countries.

   

  That would make history.
