  We generalize the democratic neutrino mixing Ansatz by incorporating the
type-II seesaw mechanism with S(3) flavor symmetry. We find that bilarge
neutrino mixing can naturally appear if the flavor democracy contribution is
strongly suppressed due to significant cancellation between the conventional
seesaw and triplet mass terms. Explicit S(3) symmetry breaking yields
successful neutrino phenomenology and various testable correlations between the
neutrino mass and mixing parameters. Among the results are a normal neutrino
mass ordering, $0.005 \le |U_{e3}| \le 0.057$, $1 - \sin^2 2\theta_{23} \ge
0.005$, positive $J_{\rm CP}$ and moderate cancellation in the effective mass
of the neutrinoless double beta decay.
