Serious Bro Chun Sing: 50 Public Servants And 1200 Towkays Qualify To Be Our Next President!

[JohnTan]

About 50 public service positions currently fulfil the public sector service criteria for Singaporeans to qualify to be elected as President, said Minister for Education Chan Chun Sing.

Chan, who is also Minister-in-charge of the Public Service, was responding to a written question by Progress Singapore Party's Leong Mun Wai. He questioned the estimated number of Singaporeans qualified to be elected President as of 31 December 2022.

Specifically, Leong requested the numbers of those who fulfil the public sector service requirement and those who meet the private sector requirement, serving as chief executives in government-linked companies (GLCs) and non-GLCs, respectively.

"The Elections Department does not track the number of Singaporeans qualified to be elected as President," Chan said.

Chan shared that there are more than 1,200 companies with an average shareholders' equity at or exceeding S$500 million for the private sector service requirements.

What are the public/private sector service requirements?
To fulfil the public sector service criteria, a person must have held office as a Minister, Chief Justice, Speaker, Attorney-General, Chairman of the Public Service Commission, Auditor-General, Accountant-General or Permanent Secretary for at least three years.

The public sector service requirement can also be fulfilled if the person has served at least three years in a public sector office and the Presidential Elections Committee is satisfied that the person has the required experience and ability to effectively carry out the duties and responsibilities of the office of President.

For the private sector service requirements, the person must have served as a company's chief executive for at least three years recently.

In addition, the company must, on average, have at least S$500 million in shareholders' equity and have made a profit after tax throughout the entire period.

In any democracy...any full fledged citizen is "qualified".

The truth lies in the process of election.

It is undemocractic to set up rules to select candidates to make sure that the election process cannot take place.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights Article 21​

1. Everyone has the right to take part in the government of his country, directly or through freely chosen representatives.
2. Everyone has the right of equal access to public service in his country.
3. The will of the people shall be the basis of the authority of government; this will shall be expressed in periodic and genuine elections which shall be by universal and equal suffrage and shall be held by secret vote or by equivalent free voting procedures.

Its already a breach of article 21 as everyone has the right to take part in government - so its ridiculous to set so many conditions all of which favours the elite

Are the presidential criteria (conditions) a breach (violation) of the constitution of Singapore ? The answer is obvious.

I do not think singkieland is a signatory of this declaration. And such a declaration is just guidelines...no teeth. No grounds for legal enforcement because it's legally unenforceable

 

[JohnTan]

Does that include pap cabinet ministers?

Sure it does. Oppie cabinet ministers can also be included, like David Marshall or Lim Yew Hock, if they are still alive.

Tan Cheng Bock got no chance
