The move left Singaporeans wondering who will be the one to fill DPM Heng’s shoes and become the frontrunner for Singapore’s next Prime Minister (PM).

On the same evening, MS News conducted a poll on Telegram to find out who Singaporeans think will emerge as the frontrunner among 4 likely candidates — the results are pretty telling.

The move left Singaporeans wondering who will be the one to fill DPM Heng’s shoes and become the frontrunner for Singapore’s next Prime Minister (PM).

On the same evening, MS News conducted a poll on Telegram to find out who Singaporeans think will emerge as the frontrunner among 4 likely candidates — the results are pretty telling.

37% of respondents picked Education Minister Mr Lawrence Wong, while 33% chose Mr Ong Ye Kung, the current Minister for Transport.

Poll shows Mr Wong & Mr Ong as favourites for PM job
Among the 3,300 voters who took part in the poll, a slight majority – 37% – are eyeing Mr Lawrence Wong for our next PM.

 

[Ralders]

Mr Lawrence Wong is currently the Minister for Education and the Second Minister for Finance.

At just 48 years old, Mr Wong is also the second-youngest candidate among the 4 Ministers.

The first runner-up is Mr Ong Ye Kung, whom 33% of respondents think could fill DPM Heng’s position.

The 51-year-old is now the Minister for Transport. He also sits on the board of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

Fewer root for Mr Chan & Mr Lee
A quarter of the respondents think Mr Chan Chun Sing is next in line to be Singapore’s PM.

At 51 years old, Mr Chan is the Minister for Trade and Industry.

He also ranks highest amongst the 4 candidates in PAP’s Central Executive Committee, just behind DPM Heng as the party’s Second Assistant Secretary-General.

The remaining 5% of respondents voted for Mr Desmond Lee, the youngest amongst the 4.

The 44-year-old is currently serving as Minister for National Development.

Nationwide anticipation for next PM
Mr Heng’s decision to step aside certainly came as shocking news for many Singaporeans.

Though it’s no doubt a setback in our nation’s leadership succession, all eyes will now be on the cabinet reshuffle that will reportedly take place in about 2 weeks’ time — in particular, the person who will take over the finance portfolio vacated by DPM Heng.

Till then, we guess everything can and will be mere speculation.

Loong can be both PM and Finance Minister. After all, it won't be the first time.

Anything goes in this tinpot island.

Mr. Wong speaks better than a few of the other so called front runners.

Let's not kid ourselves. LHL intends to mimic Xi. Emperor Lee and Empress Ho will reign until death.

As long as not Chan Chun Sing the yaya fucker

Mr. Lee speaks well.
I believe an individual who is charismatic and eloquent is preferred.
There is no need for a scholar because the government is supported by numerous capable and dedicated civil servants.

This was the topic shared amongst my beer kakis this evening. We agreed that ministers and prime minister are merely very expensive messengers. The number crunching, planning, the actual work are done by people within the ministry. Sometimes (or oftentimes) even tapping the expertise of private sector contractors/consultants/advisers.

 

[Charlie99]

I believe that the Ministers are way over paid.
A fair annual compensation is $400,000 to $600 000.
Accordingly, the compensation for all senior civil servants, SPF and SAF officers should be reduced, as well as the judiciary.
They may not be there to serve, but for the very significant salary, with almost little risk, compared to entrepreneurs and professionals.

I agree.
Serving the country and fellow citizens is not about million dollar salaries. Just being a judge, it is not about making as much as a practising lawyer.
If an individual desires money, it is OK, just go into business or whatever outside if politics and civil service or do not accept an appt. asa judge.
Will not be poor and will not be super rich.
Professionals also should be service before pecuniary rewards, not a licence to print money.
