The Group Representation Constituency (GRC) system was established in 1988 “to ensure the representation in Parliament of Members from the Malay, Indian and other minority communities,” according to Article 8A of the Parliamentary Elections Act.
The GRC system has been much criticized by the Opposition over the years since its implementation. However, I would argue that the GRC system still has its relevance in today’s context. In this article, I shall outline the reasons why Singapore benefits from the GRC system and why we should retain it.
