After the nomination day, the presidential election has been officially launched. Just as I predicted in the previous comments in the inside and outside of the Cathedral City (June 20th Edition of Lianhe Zaobao), entrepreneur Wu Zhenhua regretted not getting the election to enterBond.In addition to the former state -owned capital of Damman, with the joining of Huang Guosong and Chen Qinliang, the election shows a competitive situation of three -legged.
Compared with the politics of countries around the world, Singapore's election presidential system is unique and rare.It is very different from the presidential state, such as the United States, the Singapore president is not a real power leader, and does not dominate the country's internal affairs and foreign decisions. Different from the constitutional monarchy, such as the United Kingdom and Malaysia, the Singapore president is not hereditary or appointed, but is selected by the whole people.Even compared with Singapore's own election, there are essential differences.
As the election of the party's ruling election, the political parties emphasize differentiation in the campaign. By promoting the difference between the party's policies and other political parties by propagating to voters, and even the candidates in the same constituency,Disposal and defense, strive to agree with the party and cast support votes.However, the President of Singapore is a head of state that transcends politics. It does not mean any specific political parties. The relationship with the ruling Prime Minister is by no means an analogy of "chairman and president".In the political system of Singapore, the government prime minister is the leader of the real power, and the president has not been given by the constitution to supervise and check the government's functions.
After clarifying the system and behavior rules, the presidential candidates must clarify the duties that they should perform in the future during the campaign, and should not attract free votes with unrealistic "super energy" commitments.Shangdanman's positioning of himself is impressive. He compares himself to the guard of the football team. A team rely on the striker to score the ball, but to win the game or even win the league championship, it is necessaryMake sure the goal is not lost.The president and the government are still the same team, with the same goal: strive to make Singapore be able to grow up and prosper.
The President of Singapore is not the second power center of national governance, but should be used as a symbol of unity of the Chinese people and fully support the governance of the election government., Integrity governance.At the same time, as a national super diplomat, it is necessary to implement the national diplomatic policy of the election government, speak for the interests of Singapore on the international stage, and strive to make the most friends, and do not tree enemies.As described by Da Mamman, Singapore, as a small country, must learn from David to defeat the wisdom of Giant Goblia and stand out in the current challenging chaotic world.
As a democratic country of a diverse race and a diverse society, Singapore may have doubts, especially the "first investment clan": Since the president and the government are not opposing or checks and balances, we have passed the five -year election to decide by the governance by governance.The party formed the government, is it necessary to have the presidential election of the nation's voting once in six years?Is the President's change of the method of being nominated by the Prime Minister and the production appointed by the Congress is more practical and efficient?
To answer the above questions, Prime Minister Li Xianlong had previously given us a reference answer to the statement of the Congress on the investigation of the Secretary of Transport Yi Huaren by the Congress.Premier Li admits that the government's response is not flawless, but it is an important key to maintaining the public's confidence in the system.
People are not sages, and they have nothing to do. Even if Singapore has set up the highest standards for the world in integrity supervision and governance, it is guaranteed through the two -key operating mechanism of the Prime Minister and President.The Prime Minister even asked the ultimate question: When one of the future, the corruption prime minister and the misjudgment of the president, how should we deal with it?
The elections and presidential elections held every five and six years are the best answers: the government's power comes from the authorization of national votes, and the president's responsibility comes from the endorsement of national votes.One vote in each Singapore national is sacred. Through regular elections, through votes, we can refuse the corrupted government, and we can refuse incompetence presidents.As Premier Li's sincere statement at the National Day Mass Congress: We (the governor) are the managers of Singapore and the country who have been entrusted to lead and take care of our country.The Singapore of Singapore, which is established.
