West Coast GRC Rally

There's a curious streak in us all! After attending the PAP rally, we were curious to find out what the opposition rally is like. We heard it's more enthusiastic and interesting. People are more proactive and there are more cheers!

The way they draw the electoral boundaries in Singapore is so 'weird'. Holland Village is not in the Holland Bukit Timah GRC. On the same road, you get a few constituencies!

We went to the nearest opposition rally where we were. We were at Clementi Ave 4 for the PAP rally for the Holland Bukit Timah GRC, just nearby at Clementi Stadium is where the West Coast GRC's rally is at.



We went right to the front to listen and to take photos!



Indeed, the people here are more enthusiastic!
When the MC shouted "Reform Party", the crowd cheered "We want change".



The rally at Clementi stadium was clean with no muddy fields and there's lots of seats too!

Tonight's the last night for the rallies, if you are interested, you better hurry!
Go to the Election website and search for the rally nearest to you. ;-)

Holland Bukit Timah GRC Rally

It's a rare thing that anyone gets to attend election rallies in Singapore!
It's the first time in many years that the opposition are standing in for all except one constituency.

Momo and I decided to listen to what the candidates of PAP who will be contesting in our constituency.



The one we attended tonight was at the open field in Clementi Ave 4.



Despite having soggy field, many turned up to listen.
Momo and I had super muddy shoes when we left!



There are 4 candidates in the Holland - Bukit Timah GRC, but one of the candidates seems to have great support! One of the many placards/signs that supporters made for Sim Ann.

You can watch the speeches on YouTube, but if you are in Singapore, you should go for at least one rally. It's kind of interesting!

This Void Deck has been gazetted as a polling station.

This void deck has been gazetted as a polling station on 7 May 2011.




There are many places where citizens of Singapore will be voting.

Some will be voting at void decks (if you are wondering what that is, it's the ground floor of the government housing blocks), some are at schools, etc.

I saw this notice at one of the void decks, but it's not where I am staying.
