Lawrence Wong likely to ‘lead Singapore without clear direction’: SDP

[Voldermort]

The Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) on Friday (15 April) congratulated Finance Minister Lawrence Wong on his selection as the next People’s Action Party (PAP) leader but said he is no different from his colleagues in terms of his outlook for Singapore.

“Decades of groupthink and conformity has made PAP leaders unable to see that Singapore is in dire need of reform of its economic, social and political systems,” SDP said in a media release.

SDP’s statement comes a day after Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced that Wong has been selected as the leader of the PAP fourth-generation (4G) team. With his new position, Wong is expected to succeed Lee as Singapore’s PM.

The eagerly awaited announcement by Lee comes a year after Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat stepped aside as the leader of the 4G team, prompting the ruling PAP to rejig its leadership succession planning. Lee said on Thursday that he will announce adjustments to cabinet appointments in due course.

If the PAP is unable to govern with “openness and democracy instead of its archaic practice of intimidation and manipulation”, Wong is likely to “continue to lead Singapore without clear direction”, SDP said.

It will be Loong's direction, since he will be promoted to 太上皇 in accordance to the political traditions of this cuntry.

Actually it makes no difference if it is LW, OYK, CCS or if cotton comes from sheep as we all know the so called power behind the throne.
Its time to teach and remind the PAP that real power lies in the hands of the people/voters , so locals can choose to be sheep and be bullied or show some balls and vote them out and show where is the real power

What if LW is not able to hold his own at the next Election
Will he be guarantee assurance his PM position is reserved ?

what they got is wayang lahhh. a dialogue in a wayang requires a speaker & listener, vice versa mahhhh.

so whatever pappy acts, they have options to pick their calefeas - today sdp, tomorrow wp lohhh.

u r rite, my preference is old psp type but they died long long ago liao!

& u r absolutely rite about I dunno what i want too!

maybe just a plain simple good old political gahmen who openly gobbled the country's wealth instead of feeding their cronies whilst portraying themselves benevolently - utter hypocrites these days!
