Good Luck Year of Snake 吉祥平安

The Malaysian PM is giving his luck to everyone watching his video and we welcome it.  Instead of embracing luck, Najib is kind enough to give it away and hopefully he still keeps some for his coming general election.   His son also wishes us ‘peace for all seasons’.   

Luck and Peace for the Year of Snake 2013! 

Najib and son seem to be more ‘culture’ than our million dollar ministers and sons.  I doubt children of our ministers can speak Mandarin as good as the son of Najib.  Yes, it is a political propaganda but even that it is still better than many of our political campaigns, culturally speaking!

Embrace luck in the spring, peace for all seasons, Gong Xi Fa Cai!     




纳吉迎春 四季平安 恭喜发财!

马来西亚首相纳吉祝福我们吉祥如意,他的儿子则祝福我们四季平安,当然,还有大家都希望得到的恭喜发财。纳吉在政治大海啸来临前,还不忘给人祝福,当然有其政治目的。

作为外人,我们只能拿他的吉祥,收他的平安祝福。马来西亚是否会变天,那是马来西亚选民的决定和权力,就像新加坡的人口政策,当然也应该是新加坡选民说了才算数。

Sub-standard PAP and the Singapore education system

I make a 'policy shift' when I hear the debate of right politics, constructive politics and sub-standard opposition. My original aim is to discuss about “Su Dongbo, Zhang Juzheng and Singapore education system”. The discussion will end with a sub-standard PAP, in particular from the assessment of the quality of PAP potential candidates. Another policy shift is to discuss it like a play, a drama and make it more entertainment rather than a sub-standard political discussion. Act 1 Gangster’s demand Imagine a sense in the Hong Kong's gangster movie (or a godfather movie), the gangsters' master is shouting at his poor opponent and demand him to give a price for his wrong act. The poor guy without any resources can only offer his body or his service to work for the master. Back in his own chamber, the master is still not satisfied and continues to shout 'don't play, play, you think you are hero, you think you are tiger, or superstar or acting ...

EBRC objectives: Stop “Out of Aljunied”, Stop SDP Breakthrough and “Negative-Asset” Ministers.

First of all, we have to congratulate the Electoral Boundaries Review Committee for creating more competitions, especially, multi-cornered competitions in the East. When making changes, EBRC aims to achieve 3 goals: To prevent “Out of Aljunied” for Workers’ Party.  This is the most important objective. To prevent Singapore Democratic Party making any breakthrough in the North and Central.   To look for a solution to retire “negative-asset” ministers or reduce PAP damages. From the reported claims from different political parties, we will expect multi-cornered contests not only in single constituencies but also in group representative constituencies. The PAP hopes to have a repeat of 2011 Presidential Election. Then Tony Tan won the Presidency when he got only 35% of the votes, a narrow win.However, a win is still a win. He did in even in the very last minute, after recounts of votes.    How to achieve multi-cornered contests? By i...

Is Prism Project Another Central Planning of the PAP?

There are 3 scenarios under the Prism Project#1 of Institute of Public Policy.  However, it looks more like the central scenario planning of the People’s Action Party. From the instructional menu of Prism Project Primer #2, participants were guided to a situation in 2022 and they have to imagine, within the Primer framework, to come out with 3 possible scenarios in Jun-Aug 2012.  2022. What a coincidence! Not long ago, PM Lee declared that he would like to hold the prime minister post for another 10 years. The other coincidence is the similarity between the 3 scenarios and the candidates of PE2011. How competitive and sustainable are the 3 scenarios to the people of Singapore and to the PAP?   Will the scenarios produce competitive and sustainable Singapore, Singaporeans or the PAP?  Perhaps, as what the Chinese say: planning cannot always catch up with changes.   And planning sometimes turns out the wrong, bad and unexpected results, espec...
