Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong says the decision by Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew and Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong to step down from the Cabinet is a "major event" for Singapore.

Speaking on the sidelines of a post-election victory parade on Saturday, Mr Lee said he has yet to accept their decision, although he is set to give his answer by Monday.


will he let his papa go?

if he does that, who will hold his hand for next 5 years?

More like "Papa don't preach!" Casting a long shadow over him in and out of Parliament has been nothing but an ordeal. Forget about the mentoring bit!It's all about ego and power play.

LHL has been living in the shadow of his legendary old man for too long. Why the wayang now? Must consider their resignation for a few days? WTF is that! You are PM, be decisive, tell the old farts to fuck off with immediate effect.

Both LKY and GCT decision to step down as minister is just another wayang show to calm the emotion disorder of the peasants.

LKY knew very well that his son cannot make it big to be the PM of s'pore without him pulling strings from behind the curtain. Unless LKY goes to meet his maker, otherwise he will ensure that his political power will be passed down to his son and grandson successfully.

Observe closely for the next 5 years whether LHL will make arrangement for his son to enter into politics. If he does, then it clearly shows that he is just playing lip services and giving empty promises to the peasants of s'pore.

Son seems like didn't know father want to retire, only father and predecessor pakat together to announce their retirement on the same day, son still needs some time to consider their request, and they come from the same party /and family. Hiaz... they should ask Alex Tok for his opinion.

Actually LKY was forced to step down after going through all the hostile comments in the new media. However, his ultimatum was that he would only step down if GCT was also forced to step down. as he also was also responsible for the negative responses. Hence, this was the reason for the joint statement.
