  • Why Are Gender Reforms Adopted in Singapore? Party Pragmatism and Electoral Incentives* Netina Tan
    Why Are Gender Reforms Adopted in Singapore? Party Pragmatism and Electoral Incentives* Netina Tan Abstract In Singapore, the percentage of elected female politicians rose from 3.8 percent in 1984 to 22.5 percent after the 2015 general election. After years of exclusion, why were gender reforms adopted and how did they lead to more women in political office? Unlike South Korea and Taiwan, this paper shows that in Singapore party pragmatism rather than international diffusion of gender equality norms, feminist lobbying, or rival party pressures drove gender reforms. It is argued that the ruling People’s Action Party’s (PAP) strategic and electoral calculations to maintain hegemonic rule drove its policy u-turn to nominate an average of about 17.6 percent female candidates in the last three elections. Similar to the PAP’s bid to capture women voters in the 1959 elections, it had to alter its patriarchal, conservative image to appeal to the younger, progressive electorate in the 2000s. Additionally, Singapore’s electoral system that includes multi-member constituencies based on plurality party bloc vote rule also makes it easier to include women and diversify the party slate. But despite the strategic and electoral incentives, a gender gap remains. Drawing from a range of public opinion data, this paper explains why traditional gender stereotypes, biased social norms, and unequal family responsibilities may hold women back from full political participation. Keywords: gender reforms, party pragmatism, plurality party bloc vote, multi-member constituencies, ethnic quotas, PAP, Singapore DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5509/2016892369 ____________________ Netina Tan is an assistant professor of political science at McMaster University.

  • 2Nd REPLY by MS GRACE FU, SENIOR MINISTER of STATE for NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT and EDUCATION, on DELIVERING a STUDENT- CENTRIC EDUCATION
    FY 2011 COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY DEBATE: 2nd REPLY BY MS GRACE FU, SENIOR MINISTER OF STATE FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCATION, ON DELIVERING A STUDENT- CENTRIC EDUCATION 1. Sir, allow me to address specific issues raised by members, and elaborate on two key areas: (i) First, our efforts to create a student-centric learning environment; and; (iii) Second, providing more support for students with special needs. (I) SUBSTANTIVE AND INNOVATIVE INVESTMENTS TO DELIVER A STUDENT- CENTRIC EDUCATION Enhanced School Infrastructure to Support Holistic Education 2. Mrs Josephine Teo and Mdm Halimah Yacob asked for an update on the Primary Education Review and Implementation Committee’s (or PERI) recommendations. We are upgrading 40 more Primary schools in Phase 3. This will facilitate primary schools to transit to single session and allow strengthening of non- academic aspects of education like PE, Art and Music. 3. These upgraded schools will have newer and better facilities to support more innovative and engaging lessons. Allow me to cite a few examples. 4. The first slide shows a PE lesson at Hougang Primary School. To support a more holistic education, indoor sports halls such as this will allow PE lessons and CCAs to be conducted throughout the day, rain or shine. All schools that need it will be equipped with synthetic turf, which is cheaper to maintain and can be used immediately after it rains. 5. For the Performing and Visual Arts, schools will have band rooms, dance studios, and performing arts studios. Here we see a Performing Arts Studio at Lianhua Primary, which is integrated into the library to maximise the use of space.

  • SC 100Yrs DG Speech Final (080110)
    WELCOME ADDRESS BY DIRECTOR-GENERAL OF CUSTOMS MR FONG YONG KIAN AT SINGAPORE CUSTOMS’ CENTENNIAL CELEBRATIONS, 8 JANUARY 2010, 11.10 AM, ORCHID COUNTRY CLUB Prime Minister, Mr Lee Hsien Loong Minister for Finance, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam Minister, Prime Minister’s Office and Second Minister for Finance and Transport, Mrs Lim Hwee Hua Distinguished Guests Fellow Colleagues INTRODUCTION 1. A very warm welcome to all of you. I would like to thank Prime Minister Lee for gracing this joyous event and our distinguished guests for joining us in commemorating this historic occasion for Singapore Customs. It is our pleasure and honour to have all of you here with us. 2. Today, we celebrate 100 years of Singapore Customs. The past 100 years contained many exciting changes for Customs. If one were to listen to different generations of Customs officers recounting their careers, we would no doubt hear many diverse stories. Customs’ roles have indeed evolved over the century. Please allow me to give a brief account of our history. 1 OUR HISTORY – RESPONDING TO TIMES 3. We trace our roots back to 1 st Jan 1910, when the Government Monopolies Department was formed under the Government of Straits Settlement to regulate and collect revenue from opium and liquor. At that time, these provided the colonial government with a steady and key source of income. 4. Tariff was later extended to tobacco and the Department also took over the collection of duty on petroleum from the Treasury. As the government increased its reliance on revenue from duties on tobacco, petroleum and liquor, the Government Monopolies Department was renamed as Excise Department in 1935, and later in 1938 to Department of Customs and Excise.

  • 1 Singapore's Dominant Party System
    Tan, Kenneth Paul (2017) “Singapore’s Dominant Party System”, in Governing Global-City Singapore: Legacies and Futures after Lee Kuan Yew, Routledge 1 Singapore’s dominant party system On the night of 11 September 2015, pundits, journalists, political bloggers, aca- demics, and others in Singapore’s chattering classes watched in long- drawn amazement as the media reported excitedly on the results of independent Singa- pore’s twelfth parliamentary elections that trickled in until the very early hours of the morning. It became increasingly clear as the night wore on, and any optimism for change wore off, that the ruling People’s Action Party (PAP) had swept the votes in something of a landslide victory that would have puzzled even the PAP itself (Zakir, 2015). In the 2015 general elections (GE2015), the incumbent party won 69.9 per cent of the total votes (see Table 1.1). The Workers’ Party (WP), the leading opposition party that had five elected members in the previous parliament, lost their Punggol East seat in 2015 with 48.2 per cent of the votes cast in that single- member constituency (SMC). With 51 per cent of the votes, the WP was able to hold on to Aljunied, a five-member group representation constituency (GRC), by a very slim margin of less than 2 per cent. It was also able to hold on to Hougang SMC with a more convincing win of 57.7 per cent. However, it was undoubtedly a hard defeat for the opposition. The strong performance by the PAP bucked the trend observed since GE2001, when it had won 75.3 per cent of the total votes, the highest percent- age since independence.

  • Institutionalized Leadership: Resilient Hegemonic Party Autocracy in Singapore
    Institutionalized Leadership: Resilient Hegemonic Party Autocracy in Singapore By Netina Tan PhD Candidate Political Science Department University of British Columbia Paper prepared for presentation at CPSA Conference, 28 May 2009 Ottawa, Ontario Work- in-progress, please do not cite without author’s permission. All comments welcomed, please contact author at [email protected] Abstract In the age of democracy, the resilience of Singapore’s hegemonic party autocracy is puzzling. The People’s Action Party (PAP) has defied the “third wave”, withstood economic crises and ruled uninterrupted for more than five decades. Will the PAP remain a deviant case and survive the passing of its founding leader, Lee Kuan Yew? Building on an emerging scholarship on electoral authoritarianism and the concept of institutionalization, this paper argues that the resilience of hegemonic party autocracy depends more on institutions than coercion, charisma or ideological commitment. Institutionalized parties in electoral autocracies have a greater chance of survival, just like those in electoral democracies. With an institutionalized leadership succession system to ensure self-renewal and elite cohesion, this paper contends that PAP will continue to rule Singapore in the post-Lee era. 2 “All parties must institutionalize to a certain extent in order to survive” Angelo Panebianco (1988, 54) Introduction In the age of democracy, the resilience of Singapore’s hegemonic party regime1 is puzzling (Haas 1999). A small island with less than 4.6 million population, Singapore is the wealthiest non-oil producing country in the world that is not a democracy.2 Despite its affluence and ideal socio- economic prerequisites for democracy, the country has been under the rule of one party, the People’s Action Party (PAP) for the last five decades.

  • MINDEF Innovates for Tomorrow
    MINDEF Innovates for Tomorrow 22 May 1998 More than 170 SAF and MINDEF personnel were honoured for their efforts and contributions in improving service excellence and productivity this morning, 22 May 98. The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Defence, Dr Tony Tan, presented awards to individuals, groups and units that have done well in their productivity efforts at the 11th Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) Productivity In Daily Effort (PRIDE) Day awards presentation ceremony held at SAFTI MI. The MINDEF Productivity Movement was established in 1981 to foster a climate receptive to change, raise productivity awareness and promote involvement and teamwork within the organisation. MINDEF has always been taking serious efforts in productivity; innovating to reduce operating costs and improving the efficiency of the work processes in the organisation. The theme for this year's MINDEF PRIDE Day, 'TOGETHER, INNOVATING FOR TOMORROW', is in line with the foundation theme 'Innovation & Quality' promulgated by Public Service Board for the productivity movement from 1996 to 2000; and theme for the 1997 Public Service Convention 'Serving Singaporeans Today TOMORROW'. Dr Tan also opened the 11th MINDEF PRIDE Exhibition. The exhibition showcased outstanding projects and suggestions contributed by MINDEF and SAF personnel. For the first time, this exhibition is open to the public in the Toa Payoh, Bukit Merah and Tampines SAFRA clubhouses on 23rd and 24th May 98, from 10 am to 8 pm. This allows MINDEF to share its achievements with members of the public, particularly the 250,000-strong operationally ready NSmen. This move is made in recognition of the important role played by NSmen not only in the operational readiness of the Singapore Armed Forces, but also their contributions to the overall productivity efforts in MINDEF and at their respective workplaces.

    RELIGION AND SOCIETY IN ASIA Abdullah Islam in a Secular State a Secular in Islam Walid Jumblatt Abdullah Islam in a Secular State Muslim Activism in Singapore Islam in a Secular State Religion and Society in Asia This series contributes cutting-edge and cross-disciplinary academic research on various forms and levels of engagement between religion and society that have developed in the regions of South Asia, East Asia, and South East Asia, in the modern period, that is, from the early 19th century until the present. The publications in this series should reflect studies of both religion in society and society in religion. This opens up a discursive horizon for a wide range of themes and phenomena: the politics of local, national and transnational religion; tension between private conviction and the institutional structures of religion; economical dimensions of religion as well as religious motives in business endeavours; issues of religion, law and legality; gender relations in religious thought and practice; representation of religion in popular culture, including the mediatisation of religion; the spatialisation and temporalisation of religion; religion, secularity, and secularism; colonial and post-colonial construction of religious identities; the politics of ritual; the sociological study of religion and the arts. Engaging these themes will involve explorations of the concepts of modernity and modernisation as well as analyses of how local traditions have been reshaped on the basis of both rejecting and accepting Western religious,

COMPETING NARRATIVES AND DISCOURSES OF THE RULE OF LAW IN SINGAPORE Jack Tsen-Ta Lee∗ This article aims to assess the role played by the rule of law in discourse by critics of the Singapore Government’s policies and in the Government’s responses to such criticisms. It argues that in the past the two narratives clashed over conceptions of the rule of law, but there is now evidence of convergence of thinking as regards the need to protect human rights, though not necessarily as to how the balance between rights and other public interests should be struck.

  • 52 Mr. Chiam See Tong Is an Icon of Opposition in Singapore. He Is The
    Mr. Chiam See Tong is an icon of opposition in Singapore. He is the Member of Parliament for Potong Pasir for the last 22 years, and faces an uphill challenge this time round, after SM Goh Chok Tong has been assigned to win back opposition wards for PAP. Recently, he addressed NUS students and won cheers (if not their hearts and minds) at the Forum on Singapore’s General Elections. Salman J. Nawaz and Darryl Leong met the charismatic MP in Pasir Ris and asked him a few questions. The Ridge: What made you run against PAP three decades ago? MP Chiam: I think to serve the country one must have a heart; one must have good philosophy, no doubt of course we have to provide for the people, a roof over their head, clothes to wear, food to eat, and a good transportation system, but I think more importantly we must care, the caring aspect is very important. I think the PAP stresses too much on materialism, and it doesn’t really go all out to help, and it is really the fringe people who are suffering. What do you think is the role of opposition? I think the main role of the opposition is like the ruling party. We are also playing a role in nation- building. We want to build Singapore, and we are not here to destroy or to do harm to Singapore. We want Singapore to progress and to become more prosperous. And of course by checking the PAP and pointing out their mistakes, […] we can make Singapore even richer than what it already is.
