It used to be the situation where the opposition capitalised on
the poorly amenitised ward to break the stronghold of PAP.
But this situation quickly changed. The outlaying or ulu wards
were amenitised and the above strategy cannot be used anymore.
PAP then linked the upkeeping of ward with the election
result. In a way, PAP is threathening those who voted in the
opposition that their wards will be starved of fund. The
strategy 'fear of lossing out' or 'kiasuism' was played out on
the people.
I am still mulling about the strategy PAP and the opposition
will play out this time.
My two cents about your comment:-
Worker party will conquer
where.
So long as PAP can't or unable to break up the Teochew enclave
of Hougang, Worker Party will still be strong in Hougang. Worker
party has been doing a fairly good job there.
I mean what they going to do? Chinese dialectic quota like racial
quota? This will madness. But this staying power will also depends
on the cooperation of the opposition parties.
SDP conquer
where
Woodlands & Sembwang To
form Northen Alliance)
SDP in woodland is a strong posibility if they can find some
articulate and charismatic minority grassroot leaders who can
connect with the huge population of minority there. But again, PAP
can also play out this strategy to its advantage.
Another great unknown factor will be the hugh influx of PR turned
Singaporeans. How will they vote?
I heard Chiam will field a top secret weapon in this
election..is a big surprise for everybody!!
