GRC sure will prevent again many potential leaders to stand for
election as they may not be able to put together the heavy election
deposits or get a few ethnic candidates of other races to stand
with them against the ministers' GRC who have all the advantages of
incumbent plus having 5 years of free posters advertisements
displayed all over their constituencies against the new candidates
who could only display their posters for about a week to two weeks
before election.
The threat to sue any candidates who dare to speak critically about
losses in Shin Corp or cronyism will still deter many potential
candidates from speaking up on the truths in wrong doings.
So it is predictable for PAP to win another election by default
once again notwithstanding the profiteering and GST increases
without necessity and misuse of people's monies to bribe the
electorate with election goodies and newspapers painting all the
elites' false success stories while covering up escape stories
about Mas Selamat.
The question we should ask ourselves is: is this kind of election
real or what we the people want and will we still be happy or are
we resigned or fated to accept it because there is no choice.
Will you consider such election success a success?
