At the Boat Quay lunchtime rally, 3 May 2006, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong used the word "fix" in his speech

Right now we have Low Thia Khiang, Chiam See Tong, Steve Chia. We can deal with them. Suppose you had 10, 15, 20 opposition members in Parliament. Instead of spending my time thinking what is the right policy for Singapore, I'm going to spend all my time thinking what's the right way to fix them, to buy my supporters votes, how can I solve this week's problem and forget about next year's challenges?

YOU MEAN THIS?


I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
and stops my mind from wandering
where it will go
I'm filling the cracks that ran though the door
and kept my mind from wandering
where it will go

And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong
I'm right where I belong
I'm right where I belong
See the people standing there
who disagree and never win
and wonder why they don't get in my door

And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong
I'm right where I belong
I'm right where I belong
Silly people run around
they worry me and never ask me
why they don't get past my door

I'm taking my time for a number of things
that weren't important yesterday
and I still go

I'm fixing a hole where the rain gets in
and stops my mind from wandering
( I am fixing a hole, by The Beatles, abridged)

i seriously wondered which rocket scientist produced that script... plan the policies that would benefit the Citizens and not being self-serving, do it sincerely and they would naturally vote for you

i guess folks need to understand this and let's be honest about it: power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely
