 国际观、世界观见不着,看不见?


跑道太短,王瑞杰不敌新冠挑战。

临危受命,黄循财如何应对新冠、俄乌冲突。


王瑞杰自认跑道太短,无法让新加坡起飞。冠病期间的大选表现差强人意,王瑞杰在自知自明下,终于明白还是尽早结束总理梦,跑道长短,事实上只是一个借口,适不适合暖席才是关键。


冠病疫情,我们看不到王瑞杰对于这个世界性议题发表什么看法。


现在,黄循财接手,临危受命,又多了一项挑战。新冠加俄乌冲突,两个世界性课题,到目前为此,我们只看到他针对国内经济、民生的影响,偶尔发表一些意见。没有看到他的国际观、世界观。其他4G部长也一样。


新加坡作为一个开放城市,与国际接轨的金融中心,贸易中心,服务中心。。。国家领袖如果没有国际观、世界观将会是一个灾难。目前为此,王瑞杰没有,黄循财有吗?


吴作栋的暖席总理做得让人安心,因为还一个李光耀和老一辈行动党元老支撑着。这点也延续到李显龙任内的第一个10年。不过,现在已经快支撑不下了。


    最近,李显龙关于俄乌冲突、中美关系的谈话,有些人认为极为有远见和高智慧,但是,也有人认为天真无知。李显龙以‘美国本位’看问题,似乎没有从‘亚洲观点’分析。什么是‘亚洲观点’?中国,印度,中东和亚细安。


我们从李显龙的外交部长水准和人选,就可以看出新加坡国际观和世界观的退步。杨荣文的深度和眼光比他的后任者来得沉和广。其他的部长很少发表具有深度的见解,除了善达曼和偶尔的黄永宏以外。


事实上,新冠,尤其是俄乌冲突,外交活动已经变成非常重要。对于小国来说,更是如此。


王瑞杰跑道太短,根本看不到他的世界观。黄循财只有几年时间,甚至更加短的跑道。因为,他都不知道、不清楚2025年大选,是不是自己领军作战?当然,因为忙着接班工作,很可能我们也看不到他的国际观。


缺少国际观,误判国际局势,错估区域政治,会是什么下场?乌克兰就是一个例子。当然,除非自愿作为一枚棋子。


黄循财是否如民主党说的,没有清晰的方向?如果说作为领军人物,国内方向不清,没有立场,没有主见,再加上缺少国际视野,局势判断不清晰,这对国家来说是一个危险的信号。


新加坡发展到今天,所谓的接班人闹剧,如果一直演下去,将会对国家造成很大的伤害。什么阴谋论都会出现,当然,最可能就是人民行动党的分裂,甚至失去政权。

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...
