These 2 are lawyers? I can fall asleep hearing them speak in parliament.

In the past we had CST and LHD, both under SDP flag. Also not forgetting the legendary JBJ.

I think it has something to do with knowledge of constitutional law, which I believe is a compulsory subject for all law undergraduates.

Then again, you will also notice that lawyers running big and successful practices will not join the opposition camp. CSM is an exception because he has never been a Sg lawyer. The point is most successful local ones are beholden to the government. The legal profession is just like any other businesses. It's run like a business, and if you don't have any government contracts to supply a regular income for your law practice, then you will be scavenging for business like an insurance or property agent.

Agree. You can have 10 Lings and nothing happens. CST is a great man but not so eloquent and sharp to take on an army like the PAP.

Not many decent lawyers would confront the government as opposition members. Rice bowl is more important. CSM has my respect. He was making millions and yet chose to give it all up. Who in the PAP comes close?

if they feel their rice bowl is a more important then they should not even go into politics.

Giving up millions is nothing compared to giving up one's soul. Who in the WP comes close ?
