A plane ride is a good analogy of what life is like. LHL might fly First class while CSJ might be stuck all the way at the back in Economy. Looking at their families and other fruits of their lives, why does CSJ seem so much happier and at peace than LHL?

The high scores are achieved by gaming the ranking system. NUS and NTU use our taxpayers money to max out the scores for infrastructure and other hardware related categories. We continue to do poorly in teaching and other people related categories. Typical form over substance like so many other...

If the problem came from the East, IDA would have wasted no time in spending millions if not billions of our money beefing up security with all sorts of fancy toys. The radical steps taken suggest that the problem does not come from the East but instead comes from the West. It is probably an...

Liberation Theology is not biblical. When a country rejects God, God has often raises up evil, sinful leaders to punish the nation. In the context of Singapore, the main religion of most Singaporeans (many Christians included) is idol worship of the SELF. Many Singaporeans love themselves more...

An interesting turn of events. Should the lamb be allowed to flee to Malaysia? Unlike other high profile cases, the msm has pointedly not published any pictures of the lamb. He could cross the Causeway on a Malaysian passport and no one would be the wiser. If the lamb is allowed to flee, there...

The situation is similar to the current civil service where everyone jumps to the tune young Admin service officers who are sons/daughters of former Ministers, PS/DS etc. No matter what mistakes these children make, they will never be called to account because of their white horse lineage...

The lamb never knew why he was being fattened. He had always assumed that he enjoyed the best because he was so much cleverer than his peers.

The sacrificial lamb stands ready. The fire is burning and the knife is being sharpened. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/2-new-charges-for-ex-bsi/2811964.html SINGAPORE: Two additional charges were levelled against former private banker Yeo Jiawei, who has been accused of money...

Statistically too close to call because of ethnic reasons.

My prediction 1) It will be changed to a President + Vice President system. 2) Either the President or Vice President must belong to a minority race. 3) Both candidates must pass the requisite screening. This will lock up the EP into PAP hands since only the PAP has minority candidates that...

When measuring the power of the weapon, you need to take into account that many of them are family members of native born Singaporeans. There are also many native born Singaporeans with spouses/relatives on PR, LTSV and other passes. Such Singaporeans would be adverse to a "Singaporean First"...

The secret weapon which was unleashed in GE 2015 will ensure that the PAP remains in power for at least another 20 years. In the next 20 years, the use of the weapon will ensure that they enjoy a popular vote of between 65% to 70%. Aljunied will most likely be retaken by GE 2020 and WP will be...

Having unvielded his secret weapon and totally destroying his external electoral enemies, the Son King is moving now to destroy the enemies within.

In Malaysia, UMNO was able to retain power because of the Sarawak vote bank. In Singapore, they have created a massive new citizen vote bank in less than 4 years. Before GE 2015, no one knew how large this vote bank was. Now we know ...

In GE2006, the demographic that attended WP rallies was mainly young and male. In GE 2011, the demographic attending WP rallies expanded to include women and middle aged people. Today in GE 2015, I see grandmothers with walking sticks and even elderly in wheelchairs going for WP rallies. What...

The enforced silence seems to be giving rise to false hope that the past days have been just a bad dream and that there will be a quick return to the life of privilege and luxury.

If the PAP get less than 56% of the popular vote, Cherian George suggests that the PAP "accelerate leadership change" as the only way to save the PAP. Pity he truncates the graphic at 17 seats lost to the Opposition. I am interested on his take on what it would mean if the PAP lost the 2/3 majority.

If the PAP is unable to turn the tide with SG50 and the death of LKY, what do you think is going to happen in GE 2020? After GE 2011, LHL had every opportunity to make reforms to win back support. The likely electoral results of GE 2015 will show that he failed. There is no empirical evidence...

The PAP top leadership is in a state of shock and denial. They cannot understand why they cannot get Singaporeans to trust and believe them. Instead Singaporeans are flocking to listen to "un-desirables" like CSJ. When LTK or Sylvia speak, their words seem to carry more weight than any PAP...

Absolutely no reason for Tharman to leave. The cost of his continued support will however be expensive.
