By Election for Hougang
-
verykiasu2010:
I feel that any potential candidate who wants to be a candidate shd be screened with stringent criterias, a check list, if u will, so as to prevent this kind of resource-sapping incident from happening again. I feel that if there was gonna be a By-Election, WP ought to foot part of the bill, for why shd Gd Tax-Payers be made to pay...? Remember, it's Income-Tax time again...! Our hard-earned money shd be spent wisely. Surely, not like that...?!!Although PM Lee said he would consider carefully \"whether and when to hold a by-election in Hougang\", that does not mean he won't. It is just politic-speak
It is still an opportunity for the PAP to get one more seat and to deal a setback to WP. Anything is possible.
I am not supporting any political party -

Personally, does it make a diff whether we are MP free now? We are still being looked after by Aljunied GRC.It's like a extended family. in any case, we also don't depend on MP to do anything for us. -
[quote]Formerly a deputy treasurer of Aljunied Constituency Committee, Mr Png was drafted into Hougang Constituency Committee by Mr Low last week, fueling speculations that he will be fielded as a candidate to contest the ward which was left vacant after the expulsion of its MP Yaw Shin Leong from the party.

Hougang resident files affidavit with High Court pressing for by-election
[quote]A resident of Hougang living at Hougang Ave 7, has filed an affidavit with the High Court today (2 Mar), mandating Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong to call for a by-election for Hougang SMC.
The former Workers’ Party (WP) Member of Parliament for Hougang constituency, Yaw Shin Leong, was expelled from WP last month for his alleged extra-marital affair with a fellow female member of the Party.
The parliamentary seat for Hougang has been left vacant after Yaw informed parliament that he has decided not to appeal against his expulsion from WP.
A by-election for Hougang is expected to be called but the prerogative for calling the by-election lies with PM Lee Hsien Loong. He has said that “there are many other issues on the national agenda right now” and noted that Singapore just had a General Election less than a year ago. He said that there is no fixed time within which he must call for a by-election.[/quote]http://www.tremeritus.com/2012/03/02/breaking-hougang-resident-files-affidavit-with-high-court-for-by-election/ -

He will quote you at his national day rally[/quote]For to profess of not supporting any party, it's very peculiar the tone & theme of engagement. The political leaning is thus made very clear... -

Yah, I thought so too.
Actually what is the implication of having or not having by election?
Hah, I don't quite get it :scratchhead: -

\"Resident asks court to order Hougang by-election
An Hougang resident has filed an application with the High Court to hold the Prime Minister accountable for calling a by-election in her constituency within three months.
In her affidavit, Madam Vellama Marie Muthu, 42, said she is doing so as she is 'disappointed' that she cannot be helped and represented in Parliament by an elected representative of her choice. She filed the documents through her lawyer, Mr M. Ravi...\"
真的吗??!! This Ravi lawyer again... A bit :siao:
