Many countries struggled with getting the right system of governance.
Singapore adopted the "Elected President" approach. It is unique, as no other country followed this system.
America has a senate where the members are directly elected by the people.
The UK has a House of Lords comprising of people appointed by the Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister or who inherited their seats.
Canada has a Senate that are appointed by the Governor General on the advice of the Prime Minister.
All systems have their advantages and drawbacks. I prefer the Canada system, although it has its share of controversies.
The reform instituted by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is quite good. It will ensure that the Senate play a useful and effective role in commenting on legislation and remove the partisan voting.
This is worth reading.
