You totally have no say, let alone vote during the early days when the Land Acquisition Act was high and mighty.

True....with SERS Singaporeans have no say...they can just force 

This type of forcing is not allowed elsewhere.

My suggestion is to change this to allow residents to vote.

I think it would be fairer.

The govt now is not like 50yrs ago. 
It has the resources to offer a fair deal.

Also, since it can usually make much more by redeveloping the place with a higher plot ratio, they will gain.
