Picking Singapore’s next Prime Minister: The 4G16 has shown its hand and it is good

I mean, current PM Lee Hsien Loong has been talking about the importance of political succession since at least 2005. Every election since Mr Lee took over as PM in 2004 has been fought in part on the urgency of political renewal: vote for this slate of young promising candidates, so the country will have good leaders to choose from.

Fast forward to 2018. We all know Mr Lee, now 65, has said he intends to hand over the reins of Government to a successor by the time he is 70, in 2022. Meanwhile, his two Deputy PMs, Tharman Shanmugaratnam and Teo Chee Hean, are aged 60 and 63.

The statement said: "Political stability has been the hallmark of Singapore and smooth leadership succession has instilled confidence among Singaporeans and our friends around the world.

"The younger ministers are keenly aware that leadership succession is a pressing issue and that Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong intends to step down after the next general election. We are conscious of our responsibility, are working closely together as a team, and will settle on a leader from among us in good time."

now as a PM job is not going to be an easy task as tension is building in the SCS and next maybe Straits of Malacca, there is also an existing US China conflict going on, and has to be careful in dealing with both of it.

Nowadays all 5G, still talk about 4G. Very soon, will talk about GPRS.

[Kee Chew]

Ah Heng knows something that we do not know yet.....

 

[Leckmichamarsch]

When he was shifted to Marine parade in the last minute he smelled fishy.....

Better to leave when he still popular and shines...

sent him there to be demolished but he survived so get rid of him....

 

[Leckmichamarsch]

This part for sure. What my personal speculation is that when made privy to the hard numbers singapore is up against, he decided it's gonna be a lost cause and he bailed. Doesn't want to be appointed a captain of a sinking ship.

....................stinko ship

The Apple rots from inside begins.... bad tree bears bad fruits...

sent him there to be demolished but he survived so get rid of him....

Teo Chee Hean to be acting prime minister when PM Lee is away | Malay Mail

Teo Chee Hean, who is also Coordinating Minister for National Security, used to be the acting prime minister when Lee Hsien Loong was away. —Ministry of Communications and Information handout via TODAY

SINGAPORE, April 9 — Senior Minister Teo Chee Hean will be the country’s acting prime minister in Lee Hsien Loong’s absence, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) said yesterday.
Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat would act in his absence in office but now that Heng has taken himself out of the running to be Singapore’s next prime minister — as announced yesterday — PM Lee said in response to media queries that he will reinstate Teo in that role.
Teo, who is also Coordinating Minister for National Security, used to be the acting prime minister when Lee was away.
ADVERTISING
When Heng was chosen as leader of the fourth-generation (4G) team and appointed as deputy prime minister in 2019, he took over that role from Teo.
Lee said: “Now that DPM Heng has stood aside as leader of the 4G, I am reverting to the previous arrangement, and will in future appoint Teo Chee Hean as acting PM in my absence.
“This is the interim arrangement until such time as the 4G chooses a new leader from among themselves.”
Earlier yesterday, Heng took himself out of the running for the top job, two-and-a-half years after emerging as the frontrunner to succeed Lee.
Heng, who is also finance minister, said that he would have too short of a runway — given that he would be near his mid-60s when he takes over as prime minister after the Covid-19 crisis is over.
He will also relinquish his finance minister portfolio at the next Cabinet reshuffle, which is expected to be announced in about two weeks.
Separately, the 4G leaders have asked Lee to stay on in his role, saying that the unexpected news of Heng stepping aside as their head is a “setback for our succession planning”.
In a statement issued to the media, the 4G team said that it will need more time to select another leader from among themselves and have therefore asked Lee to stay on as prime minister until they have chosen a new successor and the successor is ready to take over. — TODAY

I guess the election results showed he was a flawed candidate. He also exposed his lack of eloquence.

Rubbish. You think Looong ownself go contest Eats Coats will be better?

How hard is it to run Singapore as a PM ?

 

[laksaboy]

He is a scumbag... betrayed Hill view Estate voters in the 1997 GE.... curse him to die soon...

Isn't Hillview the backdoor to Bukit Gombak (Mindef)? Lots of SAF regulars and NS boys prowl that area.
