'Our system is not perfect, but it generally produces the desired results, a harmonious and stable society, a well-run political system, a cohesive society, and a parliament that does not discriminate between races,” said Chan Chun Sing

"Our system is not perfect, but it generally produces the desired results, a harmonious and stable society, a well-run political system, a cohesive society, and a parliament that does not discriminate between races,” said Chan Chun Sing

Asserting that endorsing the motion would leave the emergence of racial politics to chance and hinder the ongoing progress toward a system where electoral contests are not determined by race, he said: However, in all these cases, there have been no by-elections to fill vacancies in Parliaments – even if the MP that has left is a minority MP.

Asking whether the MPs who were voted into Parliament at Jurong GRC would have made it if it weren’t for Mr Tharman, a veteran politician, anchoring them at the polls, Ms Poa likened Mr Tharman’s resignation to two parties signing a contract, one of whom unilaterally modifies the terms, while the other party is still restricted by the contract before it expires.

Regarding proportional representation, Mr Chan expressed reservations about forming parties based on race, religion, or special interests rather than appealing to a broad majority of voters.
