    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!
    Do you think WP will give up their 2 NCMP seats? I don't think so

    I also don't think so but anything can still happen. Anyway, if WP wants to be the only dominant opp and squeeze out the others, then they really are . As of this moment, PAP is just too difficult to overcome. Even LTK confirmed that they are not ready to take over so they should do what they say, 'to provide checks and balance' and more opp voices from other parties would only serve that goal better with more varied ideals and beliefs instead of just from WP.

    WP need to grow to be 2nd dominant party ready to be government anytime.

    Some growth theories are circulating on Internet.

    Summary below.

    WP would need to push and pull with other Opposition parties but cannot wait for other Opposition parties as well.

    WP need to grow alone and leave behind other Opposition parties.

    Singapore need only one other Opposition party to grow to be dominant and not 5-6 Opposition parties trying to grow to be dominant together.

    Time taken will be too long.

    PAP might implode before WP finish growing.

    WP now is at crossroads, their next few steps will not be simple options.

    Tough on WP.

    What is proposed above is a dangerous 2 party system. Like the US, can Singapore survive well on that system. Anyway, since you also agree that its gonna take a mighty long time for WP to rise up on par with PAP, why not grow WP and also let other opp parties to fill in the gaps that are immediately available. My take is for NSP and SPP to enter also.

    Anyway, the 3 NCMP wannabes have till next Tues to decide if they would accept the offer. Watch the space...
