总理梦 断,超脱主流政治之上; 接班人 选,依剧本继续演下去。

 

总理梦 断,超脱主流政治之上;

接班人 选,依剧本继续演下去。


既然退出政治,出来选总统,那就是离开主流政治架构,不再是国家的内阁领导班子。即使有一天,国家有难,需要一个聪明,有远见的政治人物来领导,这也是不可能的事了。


难不成,辞职总统宝座,重新投入选举,千呼万唤高票中选,又来出任总理,领导国家?不要忘记,总统任期六年,这可是总理接班人的过渡和新任命的关键时刻。


新加坡人期待的总理人选,就这样画上休止符。接下来的发展,就和这个想要选总统的人无关。能够想出这样看似毫无破绽的剧本,不可谓不高招。


第四代领导的总理人选,一直让人放不下心。跑道太短,自行放弃后,现在虽然又内定一位,但是,很多人还是不看好。即使能够登上大位,很多人猜测,也像第二代领导的总理那样,扮演暖席者。


因此,总理接班人的剧本,没有改变;反而获得加强,减少可能的竞争。只不过把最佳人选排除在外。既然没有了最适当人选,那就跟着剧本演下去。想要改剧本,换男主角,就看导演和编剧怎么说了。


总统在重要时刻可以扮演重要的角色,例如,国会没有政党过半数,又如,储备和重要人事任命。但是,过往没有一个总统,违背执政党的意愿。难不成,新总统会是一个特立独行,国人利益为先的人吗?


选择退出政党和政治,选择投入总统选举,获得职总支持,说到底,这套剧本还是很吸引人,很正面的。接下来,是考验是不是独立独断,为国为民的时刻了!

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...
