    GCT become foreign minister is a downgrade for him. Furthermore pay also reduced so he'll probably not want to. The countries around Asean are shocked that GY kana kicked out... They didn't expect!!!

    For those of you who are die hard Chiam supporters, someone offered a glimmer of hope for him to enter as NCMP. Pls consider...

    WP has already taken 6 elected seats, so there are three NCMP positions left. One seat will be offered to Lina Chiam (SPP Potong Pasir), one seat to Yee Jenn Jong (WP Joo Chiat) and one seat to WP East Coast GRC.

    Here is how Chiam See Tong can get back into parliament and continue to contribute his experience to provide check and balance.

    1. Lina Chiam rejects the NCMP position.

    2. WP already has six elected voices in parliament, so the 2 extra NCMP seats are really meaningless to them because NCMP carries no voting rights. Hence, WP should also reject the NCMP seats. This include East Coast GRC's WP candidates who lost at 45.17%.

    Base on the above scenario, the 3 NCMP seats will then go to the NSP Marine Parade team (lost with 43.35%), that can nominate a maximum of two persons under the constitution. This leaves the remaining NCMP seat to SPP Bishan Toa Payoh - and Mr Chiam (lost with 43.06%) can return to Parliament!

    This arrangement is win-win because NSP gets a chance to be in parliament to prepare them for the next election (it has been proven that Sylvia Lim had benefited from her experience as NCMP). So, key members from the NSP Marine Parade team could benefit from this. Even Nicole Seah could get a chance to get in and represent the voice of the young …. AND there will be three opposition parties to represent the interests of Singaporeans in Parliament!

    NCMP need not be from PAP. Basically, they are those who most narrowly lost in their respective GRC or SMC campaign by the smallest of margin. They can sit in parliament and offer their views but they do not belong to the 87 seats. They cannot vote. They do not earn that much coveted 15k. Think its much less or even just an allowance...

    CST said he'll never surrender. If his health permits, he'll still stand again in next GE. But I also think he should enjoy the fruits of his labor and retire...

Through their own GRC system, PAP lost GY and gained TPL. TPL be foreign minister ... Just joking... maybe get Tharman or Vivian B. to take over lor. Both still ok lah...
    in my opinion

    NMP is norminated member of parliament, meaning they do not participate in election. They are norminated by govt, not elected by people. NCMP are those who lost in election...

    Those countries are not shocked.

    You do not expect them to cheer in front of Jayakumar right ??

    Their response is normal diplomatic response.

    According to Mrs Goh, a peanut is worth $600 000. I want this peanut...

    Even the smallest organism is vital to the ecosystem so S'pore is not really dispensable lah... Have some faith in S'pore's influence in the world...
