MPs should live in the Constituency they represent!!

There's where a system should be set up to ensure there's no abuse of the system. Even if the pipes in Obama's Hyde Park home burst, they cannot use the city's water department to fix the pipe, even though Obama was an US Senator at that time. They may have had to use their own money to hire people to fix their home.

Actually for every country, there is a system in place to prevent abuse. But would you say getting special attentive attention is not an abuse in itself? It is. But then again, there is nothing much we can voice out on.

Look at Nathan, staying at Ceylon Road. With the police post guard and the NPP so near to his house, I am sure the police personnel will pay extra attention to his home since he stays there.:wink:

Well, I don't think Nathan warrants more attention than he currently deserves. But it'd take a while before anyone considers staying in the constituency which they represent.

And I think it would be someone from the opposition first who takes the first step. The odds could be lower for the PAP, especially if LKY remains alive.

It could already be a standing order that MPs not stay in the constituency they represent:wink:

LKY has spread the culture of fear within his own ranks. So if LKY basically fears his own ordinary citizens and then orders everyone to fear them as well, then I really don't have to comment much really.

We can basically just draw the obvious conclusions.

You fucking brainless fucktard! Where have such thing as the MPs represent their constituency needs to live at their respective zone? The fucking opposition members also did not live at their fucking zone. You are really a fucking brainless fucktard! HA HA HA!

The opposiition should ask how many MPs are actually living in the constituency they represent. How can u represent people if u are not living there and aware of the problems unique to their area? The MP office is useless as they are only visiting it on an occasionally visit. The MPs must be made to live there, shop there, walk among the people they represent on a daily basis, send their children to the same schools in the area, etc. Most countries do it like this, including the US. If the PAP claim to truly represent the people, they must do this and back their words up.

C.S.T. doesn't live in Potong Pasir, L.T.K. doesn't live in Hougang, Sylvia Lim doesn't live in Aljunied and Steve Chia doesn't live in Chua Chu Kang.

Steve did offered to move to Chua Chu Kang if he wins, but still lost.

Its better if one contest an area that one has been living there for a long time, maybe since childhood or since one was a teenager. I mean if one was born into a family that stays in Potong Pasir, and then contest to be an MP, his knowledge of the area, and his friendships with the hawkers, and shopkeepers over there will help him.

You this fucking fucktard! Where got such fucking thing? If you are fucking capable and talented anywhere you go also can fucking lead and manage the fucking place! A good example is our SM Goh, he was born in Malaysia but he came to Singapore and then? With his capabilities and talent he become a Senior Minister! You fucking fucktard!

Didn't know you're a baby posing as an adult here, my dear chap. For that, you get another red card. :cool:
