That's why the PAP's founding members decided to name themselves as the People's Action Party, right?Same here. I came to learn the true nature of Singaporeans during my 12 year stint working as a doctor in Singapore.I am a realist when it comes to Pappie support amongst SingkiesI agree with you. So far speaking to most Singaporeans they are just brushing it off as not important, family squabble which is common.With regards to the Lee clan saga, I mean is it going to end the pinky n the pap? It will just blow over n pinky will b voted in with 70% n aljunied will be in pap hands...Singkies love the pap...n old fart is dead n no matter what happens to oxley it's nothing to do with Singkies.
Most Singaporeans are PAP supporters.
The country is what it is because of the people themselves.
It is a political party that started planning to gain power in the mid-1950s and after finally gaining power in 1959, it has maintained its power non-stop until now, simply because the actions of the vast majority (and I mean at least 90%, based on voter turnout, not just pro-PAP voters) of Sinkie adults (including even those who bother to vote for opposition parties) have always been to slave away their lives (or at least their youth and middle age) by submitting themselves to the laws of the PAP government, which I've explained to ckmpd last year:

Dear ckmpd, once again, to be fair and credible, you should blame both the PAP and the vast majority of adult Sinkies who voted for them, simply because it:
wikipedia.org/wiki/Takes_two_to_tango_(idiom)
("It takes two to tango is a common idiomatic expression which suggests something in which more than one person or other entity are paired in an inextricably-related and active manner, occasionally with negative connotations.
The tango is a dance which requires two partners moving in relation to each other, sometimes in tandem, sometimes in opposition. The meaning of this expression has been extended to include any situation in which the two partners are by definition understood to be essential—as in, a marriage with only one partner ceases to be a marriage.")
I would go further and blame those who only blindly voted for opposition parties just because they disliked/hated the PAP for whatever reasons and did nothing else that would significantly help Singapore to become a better place to live in.
If Sinkie opposition parties and their half a million voters are really that good, they should be meditating on the following saying everyday:
The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing
quoteinvestigator.com/2010/12/04/good-men-do
and organizing mass demonstrations and route marches of at least ten thousand people all over Singapore (especially all the HDB Estates, in order to ensure that the vast majority of Sinkies hear the leaders speak and, more importantly, see their brave actions, i.e. route marches) at least once every month until Singapore truly becomes a much better place to live in.
Unfortunately, the hard truth is that Singapore has been the way it has been for half a century simply because even the voters (most of whom are probably men) for opposition parties are cowards. :(
And as I've said before, the even more cowardly opposition voters (at least 100,000 (at least 4% of the total valid voters) of them who voted for some opposition party at GE2011) flipped and voted for the PAP at last year's GE:
