从处理冠病到处理油污, 黄循财的总理路肯定比吴作栋艰难。

 从处理冠病到处理油污,

黄循财的总理路肯定比吴作栋艰难。


和吴作栋相比,黄循财所获得的精英顶尖人才的支持,的确逊色不少。我们拿第一第二代和第三第四代行动党领导层相比,就看出明显的不同。前者的领导,很多可以独当一面,后者则令人担忧。


黄循财因为领导处理冠病有功,得以出任总理。吴作栋似乎没有什么功绩,反而在李光耀不看好的背景下,出任总理。照理来说,应该是黄循财的总理路比较顺畅才对,为何黄循财却面对困境,甚至不敢有吴作栋瑞士生活的壮举幻想。


冠病属于无法预测的世界大事,不是经常发生。油污相对来说,不是什么新鲜的事,新加坡政府自认在这次的油污事件中,尽了责任,第一时间快速油污处理。  我们不是专家,无法正确评论。但是,看到行动党最近成立的气候行动和心理健康委员会,油污事件似乎是一个警告,一个讽刺。


黄循财和吴作栋处于不同的历史阶段。一个大力成长(growth)一个注重发展(development)。黄循财已经不能随心所欲的盲目的像吴作栋李显龙追求成长,而不顾及发展。成长是要付出代价的,移民,外来人才,组屋,生活费,税务负担等问题。人均高不代表所有国人,所得都高。很多人无法在成长中获得好处,反而造成贫富不均,个人发展不起来。


黄循财面对行动党三代人留下来的负担,看到成长,却做不到令人满意的发展:贫富,人口,人才,房子,生活开支等问题。因此,他提出新的社会契约,不再追求高收入,注重生活品质,人生意义,给成功新的诠释。这是对内,对外他还要处理多极世界的万千变化。


面对不可能完成的任务,黄循财和行动党就提出,大力提倡,新加坡要团结一致,共同面对未来不可测的挑战。这个团结,当然就是继续给予行动党一个强大的委托。这样的官宣,几十年来不停的以不同的方式出现,而且都很成功。造成问题的是行动党,解决问题的也是行动党。是神也是鬼。


一直以来,行动党宣传,它是唯一能够领导新加坡度过难关,继续向前的政党。不管什么情形,选民就是要支持行动党?这样的口号,过往的确很吸金吸精获得大力支持。黄循财是否能够依样画葫芦?成长期,人们被高经济成长率蒙骗蒙蔽,以为可以拿到发展的好处,哪里知道贫富距离,组屋和生活费等问题却无法获得解决。黄循财如何说服选民,认为他能够提出更好的替代方法,以新的社会契约精神,让国人对未来充满信心,共同面对挑战?

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 inserting a single c
