A PM without a degree? Possible, says Ong Ye Kung

That can happen not too far off in the future, he says; there's nothing inherent in a minister's job that requires a degree

Blah blah blah.

 

[MarcusTan]

A system will continue to perpetuate itself. So the system of scholars and paper army generals will go on.

This is worrying. My kids have the best education here that money can afford. It would be unfair to them if losers who can't hack it in school can compete directly with them for a ministerial position or top position in the civil service.

Fret not. Whatever a pap minister says can and will change over time.

Again, fret not. Your pap will stay in power for the next thousand years.
