Quote:Custodial functions

Quote:1. Past reserves

Quote:The president is empowered to vet, and, if he so decides, to veto measures taken by Parliament or the Government that he considers would draw on past reserves. For example, the president can refuse to assent to a supply Bill passed by Parliament, if in his opinion the Bill would draw on the Government’s past reserves.

Quote:This function also extends to key statutory boards – Central Provident Fund Board, Housing Board, Monetary Authority of Singapore and JTC Corporation – and key government companies GIC and Temasek.

Quote:The president can disapprove the budgets and transactions of these entities if he considers that they draw on the entities’ past reserves.

Quote:2. Public service

Quote:The president can veto appointments to key public offices, including the chief justice and the judges of the Supreme Court; the chief of defence force and the service chiefs of the Singapore Armed Forces; the commissioner of police; the attorney-general; the director of the Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB), and the chairman and members of the public, judicial and legal service commissions.

Quote:The president can also veto the removal of individuals from these appointments.

Quote:3. Investigations and detentions

Quote:CPIB: The director of the anti-graft body can go to the president for authorisation to proceed with an investigation, should the prime minister refuse to give consent.

Quote:Internal Security Act (ISA): The president’s concurrence is required for a person to be detained under the Act if the ISA advisory board recommends against the detention.

Quote:Maintenance of Religious Harmony Act: The president can also cancel or vary a restraining order made under the Act if the Cabinet’s advice was contrary to the recommendation of the Presidential Council for Religious Harmony.

TKL will be the best choice among the three.

Doubt so he is not LMW

(18-08-2023, 08:59 PM)Instinct Wrote: [ -> ]TKL should take the initiative to forgo the Presidential salary or take 10% of it. He should lead by example that public service is for the country. Doing so will put the whole cabinet and mayors to shame.

he will be damned populist FXXXx 

another way is to request PM to consolidate 5 mayors into 1 and held an election to decide who get
the vote. Even if is PAP v PAP , also interesting mah. 

Should add in not taking president salary
Since he is well to do
If he intends to help the people of sg
