修宪, ‘前进’,团结在行动党的旗帜下?


《宪法委员会》的目的是为了修宪,让新加坡有一个配合时代改变,适宜的民选总统制度。


‘前进Majulah‘的网上录像,目的是要国人为新加坡做出牺牲,不能再不理新加坡,而要为捍卫新加坡而站出来。


他们似乎忘记了新加坡国家信约,忘记了团结一致的目的就是要建立一个【公正,平等的民主社会】。

SG50一过,行动党就急不及待的要团结国人,为什么?难道,2015大选的70%得票是一种统计上的意外,还是未来几年的日子不好过,经济改革和重组,需要付出代价,像过去50年那样,中下层的人民,又要付出牺牲,代价。因此,有必要再度团结他们?


不论是修宪,还是’前进‘,我们似乎看不到新加坡国家信约的影子和精神:


建设公正平等的民主社会


新加坡共和国的理想,就是要建立一个公正,平等的民主社会。而国家信约,其实就是国家宪法不成文的一部分。这是一种精神,一种高于明文规定,黑纸白字的没有法律约束的精神和理想。


问一问我们自己,我们做到了吗?


行动党已经对这个理想,渐行渐远。对这个精神,进行陌生,冷处理。行动党忘记了,公正,平等的民主社会。它要依靠修宪,’前进‘来继续完全执政,继续垄断选举,垄断政治。


总理李显龙在给予《宪法委员会》的指导原则里,我们看不到【公正,平等的民主社会】的字眼。我们看到的是宪法要与时并进,要配合今天的新加坡政治。为谁与时并进?为谁政治配合?


同样的,在’前进‘的录像里,我们除了看到高呼团结外,没有看到我们要为【公正,平等的民主社会】做出牺牲。那么,我们到底为谁牺牲?’前进‘提到法国的’解放‘,美国的’自由‘,而把我们的’前进‘拿来与之相比?想一想,我们在为【公正,平等的民主社会】而前进,还是为行动党而前进?我们为巩固一党专政而前进,还是为新加坡民主而前进?

不论是修宪,还是前进,我们都要配合建国的理想和精神:公正,平等的民主社会,这是一种价值。行动党应该问一问自己,它离这种价值有多远?行动党是否还有这种价值精神?

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
