Why is Kway acting PM and not Tharman when HL is in India?
Is there more to it? Any hidden meaning?
He must be on leave. They will follow protocol on such things as national security measures are involved. If he cannot act for the PM if Teo is also away they would not have appointed him DPM. It will easier to sideline him politically is he is an issue holding on to the trigger.
Sorry (of course I meant Khaw Boon Wan). If he is indeed "forth" in the line, I am not at amused! The top three are away and we leave it to someone who (born in Penang) (got Singapore Government scholarship) (not serving National Service or in anyway related to serving Singapore) (being regarded as very wise) etc etc, to run my country...
I am glad that I do not have children to depend on Singapore for their future.

Clearly Big Nose and Tartman got wind of Loong's adventure before scooting off on leave or mc. Quite understandable really, I've done that all the time.![]()
If what you said is true, it sounds like that is strife among the top three.
if not true, it shows bad LHL leadership to approve TCH's and Tharman's leaves when he is away on official visit.
Either scenario speaks badly of LHL

My other points - technically, Yang Yin would be our PM if not for the widow's troublesome niece.
For example a crook from PRC could bring his dirty "money" in our beloved Singapore. Invest, go into grassroots activities, meet "work" with "MP Indan", became PR and then very become new "citizen". Very good in "social work", stood for PAP candidate become "minister for social affairs, work on other affairs, promoted, finally "acting" and then finally PM!
Glad I won't be around then![]()

You have an excellent point. It becomes a joke when 2 DPMS go on leave and the national security measures sit with the 4th person in importance. Even in the commercial sector, they ensure that leave is not granted willy nilly. Even when attending key corporate meetings, the top management cannot be on the same flight.
When Sheares got into tiff with old man over some law and threw in his immediate resignation and refused to go to Istana, they they made Yeoh Ghim Seng, speaker of Parliament acting President in order to sign off the usual paperwork. Yeoh complained bitterly that he was under siege in the Istana and he did not sign up for it. Finally old man coaxed Sheares by giving in to his views. It tells you how important matters of the state are.
