SINGAPORE: Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said he hopes to bring in more new candidates in the next General Election, including some who will be able to fill ministerial posts.


Mr Lee was speaking on Tuesday evening (May 19) on a live call-in programme on MediaCorp Radio's Capital 95.8FM.


"Half the leadership team has already emerged. In the last General Election, we brought in many new people, including a few ministers,” Mr Lee said in Mandarin. “In the next election, we hope to bring in another batch of new people, including candidates who can be office holders."


The next General Election must be held by January 2017.

Mr Lee also stressed that every election is serious, as it will see the selection of a leadership team tasked to look after citizens and the country's future.


"We can't say at the next election, the next Government is already confirmed and we are now just choosing how many opposition members we want, or which constituencies the opposition should be given more of a chance in. I think this is a dangerous way of thinking,” Mr Lee said.

Let's hope he fields someone who can take over as PM immediately following the elections. LOL.....................................

 

[Boliao]

Please at least bring in real talents with real experiences. Not those incompetent ministars that you touted as ministerial caliber. What a joke.

CNA updated the article at 11:09PM, changed the title to 'Possible office-holders could be fielded in next General Election: PM Lee', and removed that picture featuring a smug grin.

You're joking, right?

Power is very addictive.

Just before each GE, LHL will say to daft Sinkies that he can't find the right candidate for the Prime Ministar's post.

Pinky will want to follow in Old Fart's footsteps. He'll want to step down as PM only in his late 70s and then become Ministar Mentor or some ludicruous pompous sounding title. At that time he may want to write some memoirs, just like what Old Fart had done.

Of course if you are someone like Bill Clinton. You go around give talks and people will pay you lots of money.

Correct, certainly not the kind of MP whom Yang Yin could take for a ride when he applied for the permanent residence. With this kind of MP becoming Ministers, it is international joke.

In a sinking ship, tradition says that the captain must be the last one to jump ship but today, an intelligent captain will be the first one to jump ship. So, who is retiring?
