  I dun think so. They will probably appear on the news 3 days later and say that floods are caused by heavy rain and that floods are inevitable.

  You can do that every 5 - 6 years. Haha...
  Next elections will be a judgement of their performance over the last 5 years.
  
  Gen X and Y voters will grade them accordingly, without any sentimental value attached. =)

  don't think that many convert to citizens, most take up as PRs.

  There is not much incentives to convert to citizens. They will end up like the rest here.

  Sucks.
