Crisis is a good time to learn and refocus.

Let’s move forward.

One crisis after another, how will Singapore react? Old bottle with new wine? New and young leaders must learn first hand how to solve the challenges.

This cannot be an excuse to delay succession. Why? Otherwise, Singapore will not be able to have future leaders.

Many forget the most important key institution is Singapore - civil service and public administration. We may complain they are rigid, slow in solving problems or never take feedback seriously.

But the world has recognised Singapore’s efficiency and effectiveness, just like our passports rank most powerful in the world.

The PAP is in trouble and they keep postponing their succession plan. The old leaders continue to use old methods and the younger leaders have not been given a chance to learn and test their capability. There is no excuse to keep it unchanged.

Worse. The poor PAP performance will affect the effective function of the public administration. It will lower their efficiency.

It is time to let the new PAP team take over the government or the PAP is to be replaced. Psychologically, the former is a better option than the latter for many Singaporeans at this moment.

Singaporeans must prepare a weaker PAP with stronger checks and balances inside and outside parliament. While the public administration also needs to prepare itself for greater checks and balances, especially with the possibility of government changes.

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”.

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 inserting a single c
