Low said: “It will be a failure for the People’s Action Party (PAP) if it does not know how to score political points. How does PAP govern? If it does not score points from politics, how does it govern? If PAP is unable to score points from politics, it means that it is cheating, don’t you think? This means that it is using underhanded means and does not need to score political points to govern.
First of all, if you are a politician, you must have the political acumen to score political points. PAP’s way of accusing opposition parties of scoring political points is a childish way of politics.
However, every politician needs to be responsible. The change in policies will affect people’s lives. You cannot just say populist things to score political points or raise populist subjects…We also have to think about the long-term future of the country”.
