Singapore—Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing and Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung don’t get along, reports Yahoo! News, quoting a “well-placed source”.

The Apr 14 report on Yahoo! Singapore has also been published on Yahoo’s Canada and UK pages.

Mr Chan and Mr Ong, both 51, are seen as contenders to be the next Prime Minister following Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat’s decision on Apr 8 to step down as leader of the ruling People’s Action Party’s fourth-generation (4G) team.

The Yahoo report, entitled “Singapore’s 4G leadership race: Will it be Ong, Wong or Chan?,” narrowed down the front runners to lead the 4G team to three — Mr Ong, Mr Chung and Education Minister Lawrence Wong, 48.

How long it will take to name a successor is anyone’s guess.

While analysts have said that a quick succession plan would best safeguard Singapore’s economy, both Mr Chan and Mr Ong have said that this will take time.

The Trade and Industry Minister has said the 4G team should be given the chance to “to relook the question of succession holistically,” while the Transport Minister asked “for some time to regroup”.

According to Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, determining a successor would take “more than a few months” but “should not take more than a couple of years”.

Online polls have favoured Messrs Ong and Wong, with Mr Chan trailing in third place.

Yahoo spoke with former PAP MP Inderjit Singh, who said that choosing a successor has been complicated by the fact that there is no “clear superstar candidate”.

Therefore, “a cohesive and strong team” is needed, rather than just one strong individual.

“I believe the cadres will want to see the decision made on who replaces Mr Heng as soon as possible. It is important that the PAP continues to look strong and organised. If we take too long, we risk looking like we are in disarray,” Mr Singh told Yahoo!

The report added that within PAP’s rank and file, the race is perceived to be between Messrs Chan and Ong, who, apparently, are not the best of friends.

“By all accounts, the two men don’t get along. One would not be happy to be subordinate to the other. The two of them are neither that brilliant nor objectionable. They are about the same. The 4G are just a very uninspiring lot,” said the “well-placed” source.

The Independent Singapore has reached out to the PAP for comments or clarification on the quote.

The reason for this one is probably not too different from why Sinovac vaccines were bought before HSA had even evaluated them.
After all, Hong Kong is a bitch of the PRC since 1997, and especially after 2019-2020.

Online polls favour Ong and Lawrence Wong with Chan trailing in third place

This is just like saying "Online polls favour hanging and slitting of wrist as preferred suicide methods, with ingesting poison trailing in third place."

Typical propagandist cunt. Just like the various porlumpar 'academics' and ST forum contributors, they're all crawling out of the woodwork now to do damage control... as if guided by the invisible hand.

Only 1 in 5 surveyed confident of 4G leaders, Blackbox Research study finds - The Online Citizen Asia
Only one in five Singaporeans who participated in a survey conducted by market research consultancy firm Blackbox Research has expressed confidence in the fourth-generation (4G) political leadership in tackling three main challenges that lie ahead for them, namely employment, the revitalisation of the economy post-COVID-19, and social security.
The poll was conducted in the wake of Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat’s announcement on 8 Apr regarding his move to step aside as leader of the ruling People’s Action Party’s 4G team, raising speculation as to who would replace him as Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s successor.
According to Blackbox Research’s findings, more than half of the 300 respondents — at 56 per cent — were more inclined to feel negatively affected by Mr Heng’s decision to step aside as a 4G leader.
31 per cent were neutral, while 13 per cent were positively affected by the news.
Blackbox Research found that 60 per cent of respondents indicated a lack of confidence in the 4G ministers’ ability to lead the country.
While Mr Heng had suggested a younger candidate would be more suitable to succeed Mr Lee, only 3 per cent of respondents picked youth as a must-have trait.
Of the top three challenges that 4G leaders must tackle, 69 per cent of respondents cite providing jobs for Singaporeans as a priority. 65 per cent answered that reviving the economy is a top concern. 53 per cent said that social security is one of the most pressing issues that the 4G leaders must address.
Around half of the respondents do not have the confidence in the current government to lead the country out of the COVID-19 crisis.
On the other hand, 33 per cent are confident that they could, while 18 per cent are neutral.
Among the traits sought by respondents in a future PM, 71 per cent answered integrity, while 62 per cent look for empathy. 40 per cent of respondents want decisiveness in a future PM.

If you need a third party, inside source, to tell you these guys are dull, then you are a bad judge of character.
Although some may be difficult to judge like LKY especially because he morphs often during his later rule.
