In the first of a two-part discussion historian Thum Ping Tjin ("PJ") explains how Goh Keng Swee, in 1972, foresaw the economic crisis that Singapore finds itself in today, but was unable to address it because the PAP could not come up with a solution that both addressed the problem and also kept the PAP in power. PJ shows how PAP politicians since then, from Goh Chok Tong, to Lee Hsien Loong, to Tharman Shanmugaratnam, have all declared their intent to fix the problem and then made the problem worse. PJ also updates Singapore on the status of POFMA’ed.
