Direct election into town councils

The town council is now appointed by the elected MPs in the town.

I asked this question in the Wisdom of the Crowd - Should we have direct elections for town councils?

Here are the responses:

36% - It gives the chance for people to vote directly for their elected councellors.

33% - It will be a waste of time and resourcs; let the HDB manage the estate.

22% - It will encourage people to be exposed to politics at local level and prepare them for higher officers.

8% - It is harmful to have politics at local level.

In favor - 58%; against - 41%
