PAP is probably gonna rule roughshod for the next 5.5 years.
PAP has so many GRC and SMC, they can easily find one to demand all resign to allow those valuable ministers who lost their GRC in GE2020 to return to parliament using sacrificed newbie MPs in the chosen GRC.
But otherwise, there will be probably no by-elections for the next 5.5years, so the people will once again be slaves to PAP whims and fancies (e.g. increases in rate of GST, increase import of foreigners, high HDB BTO prices, unable to withdraw CPF etc).
So people have to vote more opposition into parliament just to compensate for the lack in by-elections.
If the opposition don't do their jobs, they can always be scolded or threatened with replacement by PAP next round.
And PAP grassroots advisors (MP candidates) will always be available at PA community centre.
So logically, we have to vote more opposition, at least 1/3 of Parliament.
