Legislation was introduced in parliament yesterday to change political system. If it hasn’t problem, it should become law by next month. The legislation comes some 10 months after Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced his plan to provide for having a various point in Parliament. The changes cover the way for opposing in Parliament, by the use of an increase in the allowable number of Non-Constituency Members of Parliament (NCMPs); people who can’t vote and the entrenchment of the Nominated MP (NMP); people who can vote. Once using, non-ruling party MPs would fill at least 18 seats, or one-fifth of the House. The main changes such as cancel rule that do not campaign on the day before Polling Day, and allow to have advertise for campaigning To effect these changes, correction to the Constitution, the Parliamentary Elections Act (PEA) and the Presidential Elections Act were tabled - by Deputy Prime Minister Wong Kan Seng in the first case, and Law Minister K.Shanmugam in the second and third.3
Personally, this is interesting legislation. I think all members in parliament also agree with it. For the first change about cancel campaigning on the eve of Polling Day, They do the accurate one. The day before election is very important to campaign because they have to ensure to citizen that they will do their best. For the second change about allowing advertisement for campaigning, it is also main point because advertisement will show characteristic of individual person. These are significant because choosing the honest and intelligent leader is not easy. Nowadays, dishonest leader would make serious problem, if we choose the bad leader.
