He's not god. He's just a tough old man, that I'd give it to him anytime.
We all know he is not god. But he doesnt. That is his great tragedy.

not worth it now. treat what LKY says nowadays with a huge dose of salt

Quote of the year, my dear.
Despite all the crap that I read about him, I still admire him for his intelligence, foresight and leadership skills. Of course, that does not mean I support him and his PAP.
Did I say wrongly?
You have met LKY. You have gone close to LKY. Dont you think LKY wants people to treat him like god? Dont you think LKY behaves like god? Dont you think LKY thinks he is god?
Interesting. I wonder what are the contents in those public reaction surveys. Are we privy to those surveys?
Surveys are not rocket science. They only give an indication of the expected outcome. For GE 2011, the pap knew they had a tough fight at Aljunied. But I dont think they expect to lose 45% to 55%. It was a humiliation they didnt expect
You misinterpreted Ramseth's posting. He was complimenting you actually ie he endorsed what you said and regarded it as quote of the year. I too feel that your remarks indeed worthy as the quote of the year.

Surely surveys are not rocket science but they do provide some clues, don't they? A line-up of LTK, CSM and SL is enough for the MIW to know they face their toughest battle in Aljunied. With Pritam's credentials, as the 4th member, he wasn't going to drag the team down.
was that a survey or an assessment?
The longer LKY stays, the crazier he behaves. It is sad that no pap leader dared advise him to leave before he overstayed his usefulness

Another very good quote from you. Bravo! But just a small comment. In reality there is no other PAP leader than LKY. He is PAP and PAP is him. Simple as that. The rest are just running dogs (the no-balls specie). Given this scenario, he will leave when he wants to leave. Though we all know he will leave only when he leaves this earth.
You've said nothing wrongly. I've met LKY up close a few times, the most recent being the nomination day. I feel he doesn't think he's god. He believes there no god. He just believes that he's the most powerful man in Singapore.

I agree with you. Isnt LHL supposed to be the leader?
Supposedly. When GCT inherited the PM post from LKY in 1990, it was a totally different one when LKY was PM. The PM would no longer be the paramount leader in S'pore. That remained with LKY. So on it goes ie when GCT passed the baton to LHL, the PM post is just a little more than a figure head. LKY is still the supreme leader, up to now. It was exactly the same situation in China when Deng Hsiao Peng was alive. He wasn't the PM, but he was the paramount leader. That's why when LKY was asked who he thinks is the greatest policital leader, he replied Deng Hsiao Peng. He saw himself in Deng Hsiao Peng.
