      How many will be enough for the game to stop? If don't vote, it is considered as invalid, not a vote of 'we don't want a president'. My take is that those who do not vote also do not complain.. :roll:


      Now with all the data in hand, MIW may start to strategise for the next PE.

      With a winning count of only about 35%, emmm... probably next PE the PEC will issue about 6 COE to have a more comfortable safety margin than last night of cold sweating.

      Personally the logic of having semi-final and final rounds are all clear for all to see to get the man of the real mandate between two but this is unlikely to happen.

      Maybe opposition parties can start a campaign to boycott PE voting (by casting spolit voites) if PE still were to stay but need to include a fairer playing grounds of the semi-final and final rounds to prevent PEC for having the power to issue the number of COEs each time as they deem fit.

      Non-whites all this while are climbing an almost impossible mountain with height keeps shifting... (similar to the redrawing of GE territories).

      Up the deposit, and redraw consitution laws? Oh, and invite a female candidate?

        \"The new President will be sworn in on Thursday, 1 September.\"


        I wonder if there'll be any President touring the grounds on Istana Open House this Tuesday then!

              :stompfeet: After seeing the result, I am damn pissed!


              What is justice and equality!? :stompfeet: :rant: :stompfeet: :rant:

              Approximately 65% of Singaporean are pissed with me as well!

              TT better do your job well otherwise I really hope to see another PE. Don't be arrogant. Next time shake hand with me.....better don't stick out your thumb on me. :spank:

                Yes. It is NEVER fair to begin with. Sometimes I wonder why we bother fighting cos the rules will always change so that we (the non-whites) can never win :stupid:

                But I would still fight for that future I would like to see for my children. I really hope I can effect that change before my life is up. I contribute in whatever small way I can. :roll:

                But more of Singapore need to want this change for it to happen.

                  But seriously, I really feel very disappointed with the results. Of course we must move on and embrace the results, but it does not change the fact that we are more divided than ever! :sad: :sad: Really 'sian' today and for the next week at least. 😢

                      Actually did you notice how TT brushed CNA’s reporter May Wong aside last night? I thought it was rather ‘high handed’ and reflected his true character and nature. I really doubt he has a listening ear to us, the common people. JMHO.

                        I was like you after the GE! Except I was in the minority then, the 40% who didn't vote for PAP. Now we are the majority, the 65% who didn't vote for TT :evil: :evil:
