LKY, Your Singapore is a FAILURE

You were cunning grabbing power in the 50s and 60s.

You were lucky building up the economy in the 70s and 80s.

But your luck ran out as you ran out of ideas. You had the opportunity to implement a robust system of governance to truly resist and outlast any rogue regime/govt but you did not heed history. Humanity cannot be supressed, be it Chinese, Indian, Malay, european.

You took the wrong bet. Instead of trusting the good nature of your own citizens, you played them out, flooding the country with immigrants. Forcing hardship and suffering to the very people who put their trust in you. You played them out, all in the name of a patriarcal system where you 'think' you are making the best decision on their behalf. Only idiots think they can know what is best for someone else.

Now the system you built is falling apart. Bereft of ideas, you are throwing your own principles to the wind. So the Casino is coming. But justifying it as a pragmatic move just shows that you would sell anything. Anything! I wonder what else you would sell?

You bask in the sunlight when the media in your grip calls your family amazing(?). The sky has now fallen. The system is broken. It is likely that you will see your Singapore model decline before you breathe your last.

The best genes are defective. The incredible family is really not talented.

Admit it. You're just lucky.

Yes, if anything that do PAP in. This policy must be it and Ho Ching appointment to Temasick. A lethal concoction.

His biggest mistake.

Any man of wisdom, knows that you can't have a political party in power for 40 years and still remain clean.

All I ask for, is for Dirty Harry to declare his family wealth, together with all those under Minister level.

Come clean with all the relative link to your family, who are given top government and GLC post.

Let independent auditors verify.

If you can't, then you deserve to be call Dirty Harry.

In fact you should do this for your own good and not keep quite when being ask to do it.

Any politician who got fitly rich after he secure power are all crooks. Do you agree?

Dirty Harry being a lawyer, always use "Legal" and "Above Board" to justify everything.

But a respectable statesman have higher standard call "Ethics"

For example, It is absolutely legal for his wife's legal firm to profit millions of $ on HDB conveyancing service.

But someone with "Ethics" will exercise restrain to ensure he is not "Seen" as using his influence at that time to benefit his wife's private practice.

But Dirty Harry choose to use "Legality" as the base line for his Ethics, that will eventually lead to his party downfall.

He miss the chance to be a great person, to put in place strong robust and fair system for Singapore to survive international crisis and tsunami, instead he choose the path of absolute power, nepotism, deception, greed and eventually, shame.

Unfortunately, it will be difficult to rebuild a good system now, the toxin is ingrained into our system so deeply, our future generation may not have the wisdom, ingenuity, courage and passion to clean it out.

For Great Fortune, I suggest go do business, not politics.

Hahaha, LKY choose fortune, with politics background as his Pen Qian(own money).

Unfortunately, he is not a good businessman. ANd yet, he would not admit. He gotten his daughter in law to run Temasick, and we see all the results now. He gotten his son to be the PM and we see he is no where near his father in handling anything.

This is call Nepotism -

Nepotism is the showing of favoritism toward relatives based upon that relationship, rather than on an objective evaluation of ability or suitability. For instance, offering employment to a relative, despite the fact that there are others who are better qualified and willing to perform the job, would be nepotism. The word nepotism is from the Latin word 'nepos', meaning "nephew" or "grandchild".

Lee Kwan Yew could have built up Singapore but his methos that could have worked in the past could no longer do so in the mordern times. He took care only of the rich but the poor and middle class continues to suffer due to high cost of living and having to work till they snuff it. In most developed countries, be it US, Europe, Oz or Canada, one could retire and enjoy their retirement. In the US, you get paid by the govt every month on top of your 401k and this amounts to about $800-$1500 a month dependiing on your last drawn pay. KIn Oz, if your super gets exahuaseted, you may still get pension from the govt so you won't die. In Sinkeeland, once you exhaust your CPF then what happens? You sell tissue, pick cardboards,clean food court tables or wash toilets. You've got to thank the old fart for making Sinkeeland one of the worst places among the developed countries to live in.

There will always be the poor and homeless, no matter where you go. In Chicago and New York, LA, I have seen homeless, roaming around beggin for $$$ too.

One of the worst place to live? Singapore? Not if you are rich. As for the poor in singapore, LKY wish they would just disappear somewhere.

To be specific, his son is a failure and he overestimated him. Same goes to his daughter in law, the jinx.

VIBGOYOR,

I think you need a life other than church. Almost any post you made had a reference to GOD or SATAN.

Jesus is life my brother.

Satan dwells in suffering and destruction!

what is happening in the world right now, you can relate it in the bible.

Don't believe me, do a Google search.

You fucking fucktard! Without LKY, you and your parents and family are still in the neighbour Mat'sia wearing all your fucking smelly sarong feeding H5N1-infected chickens and ducks, get robbed and raped by the mats and bite by Aedes mosquitoes all day and night long! You fucking fucktard!
