Is a general election this year now confirmed?

Look at this screen shot from 9:36 pm, Thursday, 19 February 2009. When I saw it, I called Choo Zheng Xi of The Online Citizen immediately and he got exactly the same page, so that I have a witness. He took a screen shot too.What about it? Look at the page title -– it says "General Election 2009". The contents though are from 2006. Ask yourself: Why would a page from 2006 carry a title that references 2009?
Recommended by at82: "Holding an election now can only mean two things: Either the People's Action Party wants to ride a "flight to safety" effect to sweep all opposition away, regaining a monopoly of parliamentary seats -- a most undemocratic motive, if you ask me -- or the government has no confidence at all that the economy will improve by 2011. The latter will mean a very long and painful recession."
