Select the best oppositon candidate - not party

Opposition parties should meet to select the BEST CANDIDATE who is in best position to beat the PAP candidate - no matter from which party! Could even be an independant.

The PAP will surely win if there is more than one opposition candidate.

Ask TJS to stand. He noted that he had garnered more than half a million votes in the PE, more votes than all 23 WP candidates combined in the GE. Thus, TJS has appeal, by his logic. He is a mathematical genius. You can now understand why he was a topflight fund manager. :biggrin:

Not good idea. How can one party agree that another party's candidate is the best? What advantage is there for the parties that bow out?

Are you asking WP to bow out of the SMC?

Yes and no. The parties should bury all their differences (if any) amongst them choose a candidate (may even be an independant) that will best beat the PAP's candidate.

The idea is to bring in more opposition members into Parliament.

I'm looking forward to a match-up among say, Vincent, YJJ and Ong Ye Kung.
Let them show all their qualities (or lack thereof) and may the best man win.
Likely to be pap, and so be it, but who knows?

But more likely, the match-up will be among Li Lian, Desmond, and possibly a pap loyalist who has been with the party for 30 years and works for the PA.
This will be boring.

That depend on how much they feel that Singapore would be better off by having more opposition MPs in Parliament to counter the PAP. Party interest should play second to Singapore's interest. :smile:

:cool:1 How does that help the oppositions? 2 Do you think bringing back a PAP candidate will make the PAP listen more to the Singaporeans and their needs? 3 They will probably be more aggrogant.

Doubt if OYK would want to risk his reputation again. Another defeat and he goes into the history book having two losses. MIW may introduce their secret weapon in Lionel De Dog.

No, it won't help the opposition or ordinary singaporeans.
It's better to have one strong opposition candidate taking on the pap candidate.
I just don't think it will happen in this BE and comparing the 2 scenraios stated above, I prefer the more entertaining first.
It will show a lot about these 3 men which is useful information for us ordinary chaps.

The former is precisely what I'm hoping for and the latter is the exact opposite.
Lionel the secret weapon should be saved for a GRC battle in 2016.
