This story is entirely based on my personal analysis. After the year 1984, LKY was helpless without his ‘work horses’ (‘LKY letters show he is clueless without others‘). Being proud and stubborn, he thought with the new cabinet ministers including his son would do a good job just like his old ‘work horses’.
Most of the problems seemed to be containable – mostly bread and butter issues. Little did he know that these issues became blotted to near unmanageable sizes (cost of living, healthcare cost, housing cost, widening wage gap, low fertility and increasing global pressure on competition).
Many bad policies were introduced, but these were temporary measures to ease the problems. He was too focused on fixing his ‘enemies’ that he neglected these problems. His young ministers were not experience enough to fix these problems. They were only ‘papers’ qualified and more of ‘city slickers’ with not much of ground experiences.
Thinking that by focusing on economic growth would help to alleviate these problems, they take the easy way out by opening the floodgates to dump “bodies” into the economy. With more people flooding Singapore, obviously GDP would grow as people need to eat, live and commute. As a result, wages of Singaporeans were depressed especially among those in the lower wage group.
Compounding the problems of bringing in more immigrants and foreign workers, our core Singaporean values are being affected. Singaporeans being replaced by the so called “foreign talents” become more resentful. Those who are not being replaced feel uncomfortable with the millions of newcomers squeezing together on this little red dot of ours. The Government’s solution to our complaints is simply to accuse us of being ‘xenophobic’.
Now the problems lie in the hands of LHL. He is simply just as clueless as his father.
As you can see in the old news article below, the PAP has been repeating their vision of providing for the betterment and aspiration of the citizens again and again.
At the PAP rally on 8 Dec last Sunday, LHL was in a desperate and panicky state. He talks about the opposition “checking” on them. He mentioned the word ‘checkmate’, clearly indicating that he is clueless about the notion of modern democracy.
So, how is he going to appease the citizens?
Well, if you read his speech carefully, you could really feel the desperation. Phrases like ‘If the PAP fails, Singapore is in deep trouble. We shall not fail’, ‘We don’t make empty promises’ and so on, certainly reflect his desperation.
Worse, for the first time, the PAP openly mentions about the possibility that it may not be able to form the govt (see TRE article – ‘First time PAP admits may not be able to form govt‘). Why? just to scare us to continue to vote for him and his party?
I’ve highlighted some parts of his speech in the old news article below, which was made during 2006 GE. You can see for yourselves, does he have the calibre to be the PM (with 2 ex-PMs, 20 years of mentorship under GCT and 10 years as PM)?
<ins id="aswift_1_expand" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: currentColor; width: 336px; height: 280px; display: inline-table; visibility: visible; position: relative; background-color: transparent; border-image: none;"><ins id="aswift_1_anchor" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: currentColor; width: 336px; height: 280px; display: block; visibility: visible; position: relative; background-color: transparent; border-image: none;"><iframe name="aswift_1" width="336" height="280" id="aswift_1" frameBorder="0" marginWidth="0" marginHeight="0" scrolling="no" vspace="0" hspace="0" allowfullscreen="true" style="left: 0px; top: 0px; position: absolute;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe></ins></ins>
Read what he said before 2006 GE some 8 years ago and ask yourselves if those promises he made have materialized?
He talked about needing a “very good government” to tackle issues for us and “making life better for all Singaporeans”!
So, are we better now or worse off compared to 8 years ago?
Luckily these days we have the Internet. Please email this 8-year-old news article from TODAY to your friends and family members, and ask them if they feel that their life is better now than before.

This story is entirely based on my personal analysis. After the year 1984, LKY was helpless without his ‘work horses’ (‘LKY letters show he is clueless without others‘). Being proud and stubborn, he thought with the new cabinet ministers including his son would do a good job just like his old ‘work horses’.
Most of the problems seemed to be containable – mostly bread and butter issues. Little did he know that these issues became blotted to near unmanageable sizes (cost of living, healthcare cost, housing cost, widening wage gap, low fertility and increasing global pressure on competition).
Many bad policies were introduced, but these were temporary measures to ease the problems. He was too focused on fixing his ‘enemies’ that he neglected these problems. His young ministers were not experience enough to fix these problems. They were only ‘papers’ qualified and more of ‘city slickers’ with not much of ground experiences.
Thinking that by focusing on economic growth would help to alleviate these problems, they take the easy way out by opening the floodgates to dump “bodies” into the economy. With more people flooding Singapore, obviously GDP would grow as people need to eat, live and commute. As a result, wages of Singaporeans were depressed especially among those in the lower wage group.
Compounding the problems of bringing in more immigrants and foreign workers, our core Singaporean values are being affected. Singaporeans being replaced by the so called “foreign talents” become more resentful. Those who are not being replaced feel uncomfortable with the millions of newcomers squeezing together on this little red dot of ours. The Government’s solution to our complaints is simply to accuse us of being ‘xenophobic’.
Now the problems lie in the hands of LHL. He is simply just as clueless as his father.
As you can see in the old news article below, the PAP has been repeating their vision of providing for the betterment and aspiration of the citizens again and again.
At the PAP rally on 8 Dec last Sunday, LHL was in a desperate and panicky state. He talks about the opposition “checking” on them. He mentioned the word ‘checkmate’, clearly indicating that he is clueless about the notion of modern democracy.
So, how is he going to appease the citizens?
Well, if you read his speech carefully, you could really feel the desperation. Phrases like ‘If the PAP fails, Singapore is in deep trouble. We shall not fail’, ‘We don’t make empty promises’ and so on, certainly reflect his desperation.
Worse, for the first time, the PAP openly mentions about the possibility that it may not be able to form the govt (see TRE article – ‘First time PAP admits may not be able to form govt‘). Why? just to scare us to continue to vote for him and his party?
I’ve highlighted some parts of his speech in the old news article below, which was made during 2006 GE. You can see for yourselves, does he have the calibre to be the PM (with 2 ex-PMs, 20 years of mentorship under GCT and 10 years as PM)?
