377a may be officially on the cards for repeal from tonight, but National Day Rally announcements are merely signals from Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on what the government will do for the foreseeable future.

So what's next? (1/idk)
Section 377a is part of the Penal code, a body of text that is the backbone of Criminal law in Singapore.

Unlike India, where their supreme court repealed its own offending section, Singapore's repeal will have to go through parliament. (2/idk)
Thus, for parliament to repeal it, a bill amending and removing 377a from the penal code has to be passed before it is repealed.

This process officially starts once it is read and introduced to the house. (3/idk)

Would be weird that an art student would talk about this but here goes.

1. It is unprecedented that a YPDA Agong would resign. While provisions has made for such a situation, more often that not, either their 5 years ends or they pass away whist in office.
2. With the seat vacant, it is now up the Conference of Rulers (comprised of the rulers of all the Malay royal states) to meet and elect (Yes, elect) the next YPDA.

Normally, they elect the next in line on the order of seniority that was formed in 1957.
3. The issue with this, is that the Sultan of Pahang is next in line. His old age may result in him decline the Malaysian throne which could mean the second in line getting elected instead.

4. The second in line? the Sultan of Johor. Yeah, him.
