"I Rather Be Feared Than Be Loved"

[frenchbriefs]

do you think LKY is fickle minded and greedy?

No but human beings are.they will cry for someone only if they have something to gain or

ok...so we will not describe LKY as greedy

which day was that?

If the standing position of the mourners is similar to the photo below, then it is obvious who will be the 4th Prime Minister of Singapore.

I tend to agree with you. PA will send its "volunteers" and other GLCS eg NTUC, SLF, etc will send their staff. I wont be surprised if these "mourners" will be paid handsomely

You are very perceptive.

If the bucket is filled with good deeds, that will be genuine sadness over the passing of a good man.
If the bucket is filled with evil deeds, there will be great joy that an evil man has died.

Do you see great sadness or great joy?

I think there will be a huge sigh of relief. Then the panic will begin.

My take: Achieved absolute power (mainly because Sinkies are ball-less, he would have failed miserably even in a similarly small place like Hong Kong) but not lasting legacy = Prince who is all powerful when he is alive and kicking but when dead history will give him a harsh but correct judgement. Old Fart should have read the Prince TOGETHER with the Discourses and adapt to the circumstances which he finds himself in and the aims he wish to achieve (which I think includes lasting legacy). I read both books = Old Fart is not as smart as me But I am still powerless, must be because I am not unscrupulous enough.

You are powerless because you read book 2 :p

Given the chance, I thought all chinaman behave like this.

Peranakans are worse.

Yes, I think there will be a sigh of relief and also celebrations.

But who will panic? why panic?

 

[TracyTan866]

Peranakans are worse.

many others will behave like that too, not just Chinese and peranakans

wow...many singaporeans share your thoughts and wishes for LKY. some even hope that he will outlive his sons. Is that a blessing or a curse?

More time for the grassroots people to rehearse for their big day.

That was during GE 2011. During PE it was 65%. Now I think is should be abt 68%

The pap is finding it increasingly hard to recruit native Singaporeans into grassroots and I heard many have resigned. The pap has resorted to recruiting PRs and new citizens. Will this cause a severe backlash on the pap at the next and subsequent GEs?

Well... they got Anus Koh and that 柴头 animal rights activist.

I think Anus KPK and animal rights activist are MP candidates which must be Singaporeans. Charles Chong has admitted that the PAP is finding difficulty recruiting MP candidates and the pap is scrapping the bottom of the barrel and going down to 3rd rate people.

Can we expect a sound thrashing of the pap at the next GE because of confluence of many factors?

 

[TracyTan866]

Powerless because no PAP-connection?

Does anyone remember who said the above?

Was that wisdom, arrogance or foolishness?

Who cares. .
