Throw Iswaran under the bus. He already protected the Ridout ministers and Speaker

which choice do u think he will pick?
There is no two ways about this. This fatty neh will be a scapegoat. If not pinky n cpib will lose all credibility.
Probably too big to cover up , that's why go on leave, ie, suspended.
If want to cover up, then why give cpib the go ahead? Very obvious.

He is trying to use his father’s history to remind people how clean is his party but he never had the iron in him so unlikely he will have blood in his hand. If he has the iron in him, ridout won’t even take place.
Ridout has nothing to do with corruption but he called for an investigation but kept mum on the code of conduct of his cabinet and even allow the interpretation of the code of conduct to be as such just shows that he has been held ransom as he started out going by left with oxley case so the “adviser” felt he can have special privileges, hence, ridout took place. My guess is as such.
Unlike his father. His father was never at the mercy of his cabinet, hence, he can really call the shots.

That’s what you see but I’m afraid there are a lot of new citizens, so much that you can’t see them. These are the mandate.
This episode I see is for him to continue his throne as he needs to hand over a clean gov to LW. So as long as investigation is on he won’t be handing over. My guess

Obviously it's no. 2.
Once CPIB initiated an investigation of their own, they already have a high degree of confidence in indictment else xia suay. there is no way to cover up already.
If PM disagrees with their findings, under the law they can go straight to the president who is supposed to be independent..

PM Lee will not compromise by doing anything to destroy the party and country which his father built, GCT continued to build and he himself built further.
He will certainly take whatever measures he has in his power to take to ensure that the party is handed over to Lawrence Wong free of corruption and corrupt members.

The stakes are very clear cut
If Iswaran is declared clean, and set free
PAPigs will lose more votes, and probably more GRCs
Because the people will be sceptical, and demand more answers
If Iswaran is charged and jailed
PAPigs will lose lesser votes
Because that’s what people want
Tampines & West Coast GRCs are there for the taking

Yes, new citizens plus merdeka, pioneer gen will continue to support pap. But the younger voters are the swing voters. Pap may lose a few more seats if they screwed up on this one but they won't lose control of parliament. Not so soon anyway.
Pinky probably won't handle over to liangpopo before the next GE lah.

Head of CPIB reports to Prime Minister le
CPIB is independence from all government control except Prime Minister. Prime Minister have the final say
The CPIB is a government agency under the Prime Minister's Office, operating with functional independence and is helmed by a director who reports to the Prime Minister.

If wrong doings need to be prosecuted.
If all sweep under carpet, can feel something under.

3. like keppel case, there is no credible evidence to charge Iswaran.
he will not be charged but he will resign or terminated as minister.

politics are not simple .
it is up to your imagination.
even he is charged, he can ask for pardon from sister Halimah or brother Tharman.
look at Malaysia politics, they have many choices.

not cover up.
he worked in Temasek, if he knows ugly secrets on Temasek or Ho Ching or cabinet,he can negotiate with lhl for his release.
smart politician will know what secrets to negotiate when gets caught.
if not, lhl will need to prosecute more people if he pulls more people down with him.
there are many choices.
