Is there democracy in Singapore?
October 9th, 2024 | 
Author: 
Last week, The Straits Times published an article on a survey done by the NUS Institute of Policy Studies: “Singaporeans feel country more democratic now than a decade ago, show support for system: Poll”.
I hope Singaporeans, especially the younger ones, view it as propaganda than as a serious study of the state of democracy in Singapore. Otherwise, life will be even more oppressive in the future.
The article completely destroys the meaning of democracy. It shamelessly list the pertinent characteristics of Singapore and says Singaporeans view them as signs of a healthy democracy:
“…their understanding of the concept is nuanced, with a stronger emphasis on substantive aspects, such as having necessities like food, clothes and shelter for all.
They also deem it important to democracy that people choose government leaders in free and fair elections, that the government ensures law and order, and that politics is clean and free of corruption.”
These are basic requirements expected of any government, whether democratic or not. To suggest that Singaporeans equate them to democracy is either a reflection of their ignorance or an insult to their intelligence.
It also claims that Singaporeans “placed less emphasis on political-civil rights, such as the freedom to protest or express political views openly.”
It is more likely that Singaporeans refrain from, rather than “place less emphasis”, on protesting and expressing their political views, because, doing so can get them into trouble with the law or being marginalized economically.
Nonetheless, these rights are fundamental in ensuring that governments serve the public good. An enlightened government will view them as feedback; an unenlightened and corrupt one will feel threatened and suppress them.
The article then quotes SMU Associate Professor Eugene Tan, “….. the one-party dominant system has allowed the ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) government to socialise Singaporeans to its conception of what democracy is or ought to be, as well as the desired outcomes and how politics ought to be practised.”
His observation is accurate, but he should have added that the government imposing its view of what democracy ought to be and how politics ought to be practiced, and what ought to be the outcome, is not democracy, but dictatorship.
The word democracy has been so badly abused that it has lost its meaning. By definition, democracy is government by the people, for the people. So, the policies of a democratic government have to benefit the majority rather than the minority.
In that sense, Singapore has not become more democratic in the last decade, or since Independence. On the contrary, it has become less democratic.
In the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, Singaporeans were concerned about jobs and housing. The government listened and delivered. Policies were crafted to benefit the majority and in that sense, there was a modicum of democracy.
But since the turn of the millennium, the people have been concerned about foreigners stealing their lunch and the high cost of living.
Not only did the government not listen, but has brought in even more foreign workers so that the population is now at its highest ever, despite Singaporeans not reproducing sufficiently.
Furthermore, rather than decreasing the cost of living, the government has increased GST, drastically increased the price of public housing, helped Big Pharma charge exorbitant prices in the name of protecting intellectual property rights thereby increasing the cost of medical care, allowed certain businesses to chase up COE premiums unfairly, allowed oligopolies to thrive so that they can charge high prices with impunity, and crammed more than 6 million people into our small island, thereby chasing up the cost of essentials.
Did the government listen to the people?
No, instead it has pursued policies contrary to what the people want, favoring Big Business and a small group of people, while the majority continue to struggle.
This is not democracy, but plutocracy - government by the wealthy, for the wealthy.
The important characteristic of a true democracy is that the people are free and independent, not being subjected to oppressive forces controlling their lives, despite living together in a body politic.
Even though Singapore is now more developed than the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, the people are more, and not less, dependent on the government, with it controlling almost every aspect of society. It has increased its power over the people, thereby reducing their freedom.
If the government is sincere about promoting democracy, then it should stop trying to control every aspect of society, but let the people manage them; start teaching the people about democracy and their responsibilities; stop feeding them with propaganda but let them know the truth; promote transparency and awareness by institutionalizing the Free Press Act and Freedom of Information Act; let the people provide feedback openly by institutionalizing the Freedom of Expression Act and the Freedom of Peaceful Assembly Act; and most importantly, the prime minister and his cabinet should listen to parliament and not the other way round, as parliament is the elected representative of the people.
But the relentless effort to suppress democracy has been so successful and complete, that I fear the majority will never know what it means to be free, for the foreseeable future.

Democracy is not everything, some countries have been practicing democracy for centuries but they are not any better than those who did not.
Good governance should be the principle element in any promising countries.

I love this topic. Since majority here are colonizedly brain washed,
First, join TRE as member.

The title of that article should rather be “Singapore politics has become less authoritarian or less undemocratic”?

Remove GRC.
It hinders real democracy.
It harnesses unmeritocratic MPs.
Candidates ride on coat-tails of others to enter parliament.
Anyways,for real outcomes,come to TRE to do poll.
Surveys?
What are the samples,who?
Who voted for high COE or even for COE?
Who voted for more FTs to buy HDB after robbing off our jobs.
Do not blame the ruling party only.
Young and highly educated voters love sucking lollies and exchange their votes for lollies mostly.
Singaporeans,including some opposition party ,are too daft to understand what is true democracy.
The reason is because majority of sinkies are self-interested only.
They do not care till they get hurt themselves one way or another.
Many even are prejudiced against opposition singaporeans from certain parties?
How to have democracy.
True Blue sinkies will likely vanish.
Young sinkies only care about themselves.
Many do not even care about their ageing parents,not to mention their uncles and aunties or other elderly?
Singapore Spirit?
What is it?
Chasing after the “$” spirit.PERIOD.
loading...
Oh,sure.
Like more open LGBT PINKY PARTIES.
Like more money laundering spree.
Like Million$-dollared HDB.
Like riding bicycles on PEDESTRIAN FOOTPATHS SPEEDILY.
Like more ‘foam and grabbing’ Parties.
Like calling decent sinkies xenophobic.
Like Angmohs farking sinkies.
No worries,POFMA is also democracy.
Crazy young sinkies,highly educated but foolish.

Of course, there is democracy in Singapore — Singapore DEMOCRATIC Party, but SDP is not in Parliament.

Firstly what is democracy? The US definition does not apply in $G, so what is it? No one can define it for you. If democracy means electing your government to carry out law enforcement and running the country then yes- $heeple have always had that ability to throw out the Regime up to about 2011. After that time the FT voters were able to keep the Regime in power but the remainder of $heeple still vote foe them in large numbers.
As to other ‘freedoms’ – like protests, freedom of speech, doing what people want to do like the Americans say is part of their system – this is not a legal or constitutional requirement in $inkieland but the outcome of the decisions made by people who are put into power. You can say the people gag themselves, but that is still democracy in action.
People cannot have their cake and eat it. This has been $inkie’s problem for too long. Now they are going to die from their democratic decision to get a jab. This is where democracy and stupidity need to be separated. Because one day democracy practised by the stupid will kill them.

Sinkaport is truly democratic.
Ministers are free to adjust own salary.
Ministers can ownselves check ownselves.
Ministers can suka suka brand daft citizens as xenophobic.
Sure,Sinkaport is free.
Any Tom,Dick and Hairy can come here and take over jobs and make fast money.
No worries,just be merry.
No money,no sweat.
No job,never mind.
The government very generous.
They will ask the EP( Extraordinary Presiden) to take out reserves to give you free money but you get more if you are non-citizen FTs with highest salaries.
Sinkaport is democratic.
No need oppie MP as they waste time and money.
Just join PAP.
You will be rich,no worrie$.

Useless bunch of people,from Leaders to young people.
Only Aliens are smart to milk the people,the country and damn daft gahmen over last 20 over years.
The mess is too big.
The dafts already enriched.
What is their netwoeths.
Cannot tell.
Why?
loading...
Democracy is people have the say and the nation work for the people. Now PAP seem to be working for foreigners, wealthy and themselves. The budget is finite. If budget money is share with foreigners, wealthy and rulers( like high salaries), there will be little for the poor and underprivileged. We need democracy to redistribute budget money to those who need money most,the poor not the rich and powerful.

Likely Singaporeans believe that if you can cote a government of your choice, that’s democracy. Just one main criteria.
But if these Singaporeans care to think a bit more than maybe a different conclusion will surfaced.
I believe increasingly a lot more people, especially those older folks, may not sit well with this result.
Yes, it is a propaganda in this election season, no doubt.
Older folks will need to stand up & be counted in the real poll.
Seriously.

As Anwar state in no uncertain terms:
“I shared my perspective on how the current economic system, which glorifies unfettered capitalism, ensures that the rich and powerful get to have the cake and eat it too, while the poor and marginalised are left to clean up the plate.”

America has its monetocracy.
https://www.theglobalist.com/united-states-capitalism-politics-donald-trump-wealth-inequality/
Singapore has its own variant of monetocracy with those in power in cahoot with their business friends targeting the daft sinkies at every stage of the supply chain from housing to transportation to electricity to food to groceries to everything from the day the daft ones are borned or naturalized and till they die. Each time, the rules are re-written to benefit the MIW and their cronies. Need to stanch the large outflow of CPF? Excuse: peg HDB to market price to enhance ownership and asset value! Need to lower public healthcare cost? Excuse: means testing ensure equality for all. Need more cheap labour? Excuse: the country need more FT to grow. Not enough jobs? Excuse: FT creates job for Sinkies, more fast food deliveries, more private hire cars. Fast food delivery folks going too fast on walkways? Excuse: For safety of pedestrians, ban e-scooters! Fast food delivery folks still causing accidents on walkways? Excuse: To further enhance safety for all, soon ban all riders from pedestrian walkways, only can ride on park connectors.
Keep changing the laws and rules to fatten and make SG a playground for themselves. Keep hammering the daft sinkies so that they know their place as slaves. That is monetocracy, uniquely SG!

I know a church lady come all the way from Kembangan to Clementi to buy cheap things. She lives in landed some more.
All these cheapos and cheapskates make Spore the society it is yesterday and today.
Was in JB to buy milk powder. One auntie come and tell us opposite shop 10 cents cheaper! So exciting right? Save 10 cents just walk over ! She meant well. But you can see how people are not willing to pay 10 cents more.
Customs officer scan our bags and laughed, asked us if we bought milk powder. Ya lor, you also can buy what. Since your workplace so near.
That is why US culture of tipping is good. You have to pay someone to do things for you. Create jobs. Not like cheapo employers here ask people do for free or try to sell you the idea of volunteering. They should let people poke their ass for free.

In Singapore,no money no talk.
If you have no money,you cannot get top lawyer$ to fight for you even if you are unjustly accused.
In Singapore, democracy equals money and power.
The rich and powerful can ‘talk’ anything they fancy.
The only country amongst first world democracies with high ministerial salaries high COE,highest cost public housing and high GDP with most workers and singaporeans having much less than the high GDP PER CAPITA sum ?
So,who get the $?
Greedy and powerful people.
Sure ,get rich at others’ expense.
Hell awaits you.
Replace good and honest singaporeans with FAKE FTs as seen in lowest national productivity.
‘$’ is KING!
Sure,worship KING ‘$’ ,HE waits for you in his Fire Palace.

I feel that the lightning party is trying to milk late Lee’s legacy until it can milk no more.
Founder’s memorial aside, I think we should also demolish Stanford Raffles statue and replace it with late Lee’s. Then we should also erase Raffles completely from the history books taught in school and then start Sinkieland’s history from the date that late Lee was born.

You got it WRONG. Let me re-phrase for you. 2 Options for you.
The day when you are “colonially brainwashed” to worship Ang Mo In God We Tru$t it was the death of DEMOCRACY!

The day when you are “communistly brainwashed” to worship Chinese In Confucius We Trust was the death of DEMOCRACY!
Both options brainwashed you to live according to their books (rules) and thus the death of DEMOCRACY!
We should all strive to have our own thoughts like LKY and go about things our own way instead of acting/living on others peoples’ rules (terms).

============================================================================
Once a homecoming Japanese volunteer shared with me and 2 others Singaporeans volunteer on how Japanese force out the the US cars in Japan.
Under pressure from the US, Japanese government had no choice but to open its market to US cars.
However, the Japanese understand that their government are being forced into it by the US.
So what did the Japanese ordinary folks do to help counter the US strong arm tactics?
Solution: They buy smaller cars and they build smaller carpark.
The result?
America car is too big to fit into the carpark and thus not sellable.
America lost.
The question here:
Our great PAP had already passed laws to mandate that the employer take responsibility for the authenticity of FT credential and their quality.
So, anyone free rider here call up the FT employer to request to check and verify FT credential?
No? That’s it. You don’t want to do anything except free ride on others.
You deserve to be replaced. Period.
Case you think I NATO like coward Opposition.
Over lunch, I casually asked a loud mouth FT to show me his university photos and graduation photos.
He cannot produce and he dare not face me whenever he sees me.
Want to learn how to question and sniff out FT fake credential?
Give me 20 thumbs up on this post and I will teach you.

To have more genuine democracy,Sg needs good opposition MPs.
I dare say singaporeans like Dr Chee,Lim Tean,KJ,Dr Tan,Prof Paul,Dr Ang,Leong,Poa and others can help contribute to better parliamentary discourses to arrive at better and fairer solutions to our bread and butter issues affecting a large proportion of sinkies at present.
Recent policies have brought much harfship to many sinkies.
The current opposition MPs are not able to bring about real and good change.
It is so clear.
We must forge a strong alliance altogether before true blue sinkies become extinct.
PAP has gone astray from the original mission of 1G leaders.
Anyone wise enough can vouch.
Only daft sinkies remain blind and nonchalant.
Vote wisely.
Our shared future as true blue nation-builders and citizens are put at risk by none other than PAP.
Unless PAP 4G does it more nationalistically ,we need good opposition singaporeans to be our conscience and our voice in parliament.
In this respect,WP has not been effective.
Vote for Change and Dignity.

China fleet surround Taiwan in military ‘excercise’?
Personally,I think Taiwan can exist separately from China as it has all these years.
It will be best for China to leave Taiwan alone.
But it is Taiwan’s fault to want to ‘take back’ motherland giving China the reason to reclaim Taiwan now.
Taiwan could have chosen the wrong path in the past.
It is now paying the price for Chiang Kai Sek’s folly and that of his followers.
The original local taiwanese are the losers.
It is hard for Taiwan to resist.
Resistance will bring disastrous outcome even if USA,intervenes.
As it could deduced that USA will again withdraw when they encounter relentless Chinese counter-attacks.
How many marines can USA provide?
Limited.
Of course,nuclear warfare is another game level.
That would give rise to KJU to take action and it would be total disaster.
Does USA want to start the 3rd World War?
I don’t think so.
Conclusion is LPPL THEORY whether Taiwan go to full war with China as ultimately Taiwan will be left alone to defend itself.
Can Taiwan win?
I think not.
Better for Taiwan to NEGOTIATE than go to war.
Ukraine vs Russia is not the same.
Still,Don’t see Ukraine winning.
Russia cannot lose.
Putin won’t want to lose.
Disaster for all if Putin turns berserk.
Zelenskyy is daft.
The Angmohs are equally daft.
Maybe Trump can bring ‘settlement’.
Harris will make it worse.
Let Taiwan go back to China peacefully.
Still,I hope against hope that China will leave Taiwan alone.
Politically though,it is quite impossible as other ‘provinces’ like Xinjiang may want to follow likewise.
China die die will want Taiwan ‘PROVINCE’ back to its fold.
China’s desire to take back Taiwan is similar to USA NOT LETTING HAWAII seek a breakaway,isn’t it?
What do Americans think?
