The Future of Singapore: The PAP way, Tay Kheng Soon’s enterprise or our Asian soul???

The Future of Singapore:

The PAP way, Tay Kheng Soon’s enterprise or our Asian soul???



Singaporeans want to see performances.   They not only want to see results but also want to trust the delivery.  


So far, we have seen the performance of Lee Hsien Loong and 4G ministers.  Do Singaporeans trust these PAP leaders in delivering a better future?   The answer is quite obvious. 


Perhaps, this is why Tay Kheng Soon came up with his ‘NTU Enterprise Campus’ project.  We need to create an enterprise spirit, rather than the rental economy of the PAP. Starting from NTU and spreading to other institutions and making the whole of Singapore with enterprise spirit.  



This is the alternative way to create wealth and growth. In some ways, this is to bring back our old spirit, or fighting spirit of the Pioneer and Merdeka Generations.  


Will the PAP government input these ideas into their planning and strategy options?  Accepting enterprise spirit means there are more competitions, freedom of choices, and democracy.


The PAP is now enjoying their monopoly without checks and balances.   So, what will they do?  Their usual way is to do some camouflage or white washing or make-up.

   

The NTU Enterprise Campus project has one weak point.   It wants to build an ‘enterprise’ based mainly on western concepts and architecture.  


Not to forget NTU is an occupier of Nanyang University which was formed as an enterprise by a group of dedicated and selfless people.   Their Asian spirit and value is the envy of Lee Kuan Yew and the PAP government.


The NTU Enterprise Campus project cannot just be based on enterprise, growth, and wealth generation.   Where is the soul?

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

After 60 years, after 3 failed political imaginations, the PAP is deteriorating...

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
