Mr. Brown's analysis on the new cabinet

[steffychun]

The new Cabinet has been announced. Here is a round-up:

1. Who wants to complain about our transport? Tuck Yew, understand!

2. Tharman, thank goodness the smart one gets to look after money & now the manpower hot potato.

3. Yaacob "Freak Floods" Ibrahim is now MICA. Will censorship also be a once-in-fifty-years freak incident?

4. Ng Eng Hen is now in charge of defending our country, and not offending our Mother Tongue.

5. Vivian Balakrishnan is now in charge of floods because he is good at defending overflow.

6. Shanmugam still Law Minister & now Minister for Foreign AFFAIRS. Sorry my caps lock key got stuck.

7. MG Chan Chun Sing is now Acting Minister for Community Development, Youth, Sports and the Lanfang Republic.

8. Nobody knows who Heng Swee Keat is, but he is now Minister for Education. Heard he used to work in Malaysia Airlines (MAS).

9. S Iswaran one-ups Lim Swee Say: no portfolio but got two Second Minister posts.

10. Lim Hng Kiang is keeping the same hairdo at Trade and Industry.

11. Teo Chee Hean takes Wong Kan Seng's coordinating National Security job AND former Home Affairs job. Taller job scope.

12. Khaw Boon Wan, I hope you can make housing as affordable as your $8 hospital bill.

13. Gan Kim Yong, who oversaw our successful foreign talent program, will now oversee your health.

14. Lim Swee Say still looking for his portfolio. Anyone find it, let him know.

lanfang republic was a hakka enclave in Borneo that somehow became a sovereign state of its own, is that your point?

[Confuseous]

Lim Shit Say ( #14) will never find his portfolio. He is too busy looking at his CPF and bank statements, singing, I feel rich, I feel rich.

And even if you find the portfolio, he will tell you "I don't hear you, I don't want to hear you."

Now you know why he does not believe in Minimum wage but a great supporter of Maximum wage.

Track records? The only record I hear is a broken record who keeps saying we were brought from the third world to the first, almost single-handledly by a party, and we almost have to be gratefully eternally...

14. Lim Swee Say still looking for his portfolio. Anyone find it, let him know.

Lim Swee Say appeals more as someone who is always ready to appear in party and superhero costumes. I am waiting to see if he will don the red underwear outside and assume the role of Superman to save the country. Let him push for the ARTS and wayang industry in Singapore.

That record wasn't broken. It got short circuited and just keeps spinning.

If so many ministers need to be changed, then to me the one who really must be changed is the dummy leader the pm himself

LSS is the court jester cum singer.
They keep him by the emperor's side just in case there is a downturn again.
