Nothing wrong with staying on as SM. What's more important is can LW be his own man? If he got the guts , he can. Time will tell...

I'm not going to argue with you as time and again you've shown yourself fixated on certain things and refuse to be open about other possibilities.

Cannot give the answer becoz u are bullshitting. Period.

This kind of pattern, have seen too much in ceca. So cut the crap.

1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

What is Crony Capitalism? It is an economic system where politically-connected individuals or businesses i.e. cronies in the private sector i.e. capitalists get a leg up from govt policies giving them distinct benefits that their competitors lack.

even if PM Lee does not stay, 60% will still vote for PAP.

even the company has 90% foreigners, 60% will still vote for PAP.

thus, as long as PAP has 60% votes, there will be no change.

the root cause is the 60% voters and not PAP or PM Lee.

60% votes will be depleted when the PG or Merdeka generation are gone.

To be more precise, the most important is LW outperform PM Lee in creating jobs for all sections of Sporeans
and hold inflation down.

Guts to do what will works.

impossible to happen.

for example, for many years, PAP reported unemployment is 3% but the actual figure is 10%.

no PAP minister got guts to say that the past figures are all wrong.

if the figure remains as 3%, there is no need for LW to do anything.

even if the figure is 10%, 60% will still vote for PAP.

the root cause is the 60% voters and not PAP.

Satu...Dua…Tiga! Let’s hear it for the Merdeka Generation!. Our vibrant, active, and inspiring Merdeka Generation help shape the country’s progress and they have all come so far

Senior PM Lee help Merdeka & those no so old people period. Govt has introduced the Merdeka Generation Package (MGP) to honour & thank our Merdeka Generation (MG) for their contributions as a to Singapore folks.

The MGP supports the aspirations of MG seniors in their silver years by helping them to stay active and healthy and providing them better peace of mind over future healthcare costs.

govt did not lie, but interpretation is different.
3% is for adult working age not entire population and those who actively looking for job
no data confirm 10% is true

Definitely some or many benefited from PAP governance. But going forward
Sporean including new citizens will aged, so is important for govt to plan how
to help to work beyond 55 and 65 years old quick. 

And I believe our median pop without PRs should be nearer to HK.

the only way to know the truth is to set up a unemployment registry for unemployed to register.
this unemployed registry is same as the vaccine registry.
once the unemployed register, the real figure will be known.

PAP uses survey and statistics are subjective and manipulative.

PMEs who get laid off probably won't qualify for any subsidies or unemployment relief, so they will fall below the radar. Those older retrenched white collar workers may take up to 2-3 years to find a similar level of work, so they are taken off the list of unemployed because the govt deems them to be retired or no longer interested in finding work. This keeps the no. of unemployed "unrealistically" low.

The first rule of thumb is to never outshine your boss. Gareth Bale was a footballer who outshone his coach, Zinedine Zidane who is a retired player at the same club, Real Madrid. The coach openly discriminated against this player.
