Do you feel singapore need strong opposition parties?

do i think so? yes. do i see that happening? no. PAP goes out of its way to make it extremely unattractive to enter politics against them. Its not encourage...

Yi Peng SG

Self funding lah. Membership fee, donations, selling of magazines etc

grandeur SG

How to challenge the ruling party with these kind of funding? So how PAP being funded?

cheem-.- SG

PAP got the entire state machinery behind them, why they need to worry about funding? The PAP MPs have been in power for very long, plus their high salaries to combat corruption. They can always make a voluntary donation in large amounts. The top guns in PAP are very rich people.

grandeur SG

Can you clearly define what is entire state machinery?

Yi Peng SG

Same lah. PAP i snot a rich party, you should look at the UMNO and MCA buildings.

Clementneil SG

PAP is not a rich party?
Just because it doesnt have a building with the likes of UMNO or whatsoever,doesnt mean they're not as rich.
Compare the paychecks and annual spendings. Wink

How is PAP being funded?
A very good question.
Will they ever tell you? Wink

Also,due to political apathy here,PAP gets alot of sponsorships and donations while the opposition parties have very little.

From what I've gathered from speaking to opposition leaders,
Funding is one big problem and the media covers more of the ruling party than them.
Oh..yea,did I forget to mention who has investments in them?
Ophs?

In my opinion,we don't need a strong opposition party or a new government or anything for that matter.
You need a government that sincerely cares.
A government that's willing to serve rather than having you serve them.
They are not supposed to be leaders but rather our representatives.
There's too much tragedy buried under these grounds.
And it's the same shade as concrete.

grandeur SG

In order to build a strong party. First the party needs good mission and vision, second is good leader with excellent reputation, third is good funding, fouth is good members, fifth is good interaction with peoples, sixth is to get many supporters that will help you in votes, seventh is to compete and win the ruling party, eighth is consistent in good work, ninth is to expand ur funding and get more good leaders. Any one agree or want to add on?

norey SG

Papa never a rich party..waht a JOKE! Very Happy

Does anyone know how much they carry for pocket change?

grandeur SG

You sounded like you know. How much?

norey SG

Just a wild guess:

If you have a credit card plus a wallet full in terms of cash plus
an unlimited credit line.. how much would it be...

All I have is about $10 or twenty dollars and without any bank A/c..I am a happy man don't complain about money..

However, all that my MPs in my area think is money, money ,money
and when the PM wanted to call
an election he wanted to give generously..to the tune of $2.6 B

So if the average man has so much like me..had to queue up to pay my bills at the Post bank..

and the PM have so much to lose when they are willing to offer $2.6 just to get better voltage.. how much does he carry for changes?

Probably "zero" Very Happy .. would you believe me?

Someone like a rich man Even a volunteer at NKF is paid so much out the kaddy.. so how much does a rich lady or a MP wife's carry.. I am not going to ask, let someone confess...
