Lee Hsien Yang explains why he chose not to stand for political office
Being involved in politics can take many different forms, says Progress Singapore Party member Lee Hsien Yang, brother of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
He said in a Facebook post around 1.40pm: "I have chosen not to stand for political office because I believe Singapore does not need another Lee.
"I am involved through speaking up, by supporting candidates and parties I believe in, by contributing my time, ideas and resources to causes I support, and by seeking an open and independent media."
"I do not seek power, prestige or financial rewards of political office. I hope to be a catalyst for change," he added.
He said that it would have been the "most natural thing" for him to enter political office, but political leadership in Singapore "needs to be much more than about one family or one man".
Singapore needs a broad and diverse Parliament with members who care for its citizens and the future of the nation and hold themselves accountable to the citizens, said Mr Lee, adding that there needs to be new ideas to reinvigorate Singapore, and leaders who listen and are receptive.
"Vote fearlessly. Rescue the future of the country we love. Politics is not just for politicians. It is for every citizen," he said.

You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you.

I grew up in a family at the centre of Singapore politics. From the time I was born in 1957, politics was a part of my family, as my father fought first for independence for our country and then led the challenging and arduous journey Singapore took to nationhood.

It would have been the most natural thing for me to have entered political office. But political leadership in Singapore needs to be much more than about one family or one man. The empirical evidence shows that dynastic politics causes bad government.

When people enter politics on the back of the family name, they are often evaluated based on their parents and not their performance.

This unfair advantage undermines meritocracy.

How can we expect politicians to hold each other to account, if they are blood relations?

I chose instead to enter the world of business, to be accountable to shareholders, employees and customers, and the community.

I also sought to contribute to Singapore through volunteering in other institutions beyond my corporate roles. I wanted to forge my own path, to be my own man and a man of my word.

I have chosen not to stand for political office because I believe Singapore does not need another Lee. I am interested in politics.

I am involved through speaking up, by supporting candidates and parties I believe in, by contributing my time, ideas and resources to causes I support, and by seeking an open and independent media.

I do not seek power, prestige or financial rewards of political office. I hope to be a catalyst for change.

Being involved in politics can take many different forms.

Amongst others it needs citizens to be aware of and contribute to the public discourse in the country, to support political parties one believes in, and to help them reach out to other voters.

It is support for an independent media and for open and transparent government.

It is being engaged, speaking truth to power, volunteering one’s time and contributing financially or otherwise for causes that one believes in.

Politics is both the right and the duty of every citizen.

Our country needs a broad and diverse parliament with members who care for its citizens and the future of our nation and hold themselves accountable to the citizens.

It needs people from different walks of life who can imagine, inspire and execute. We need new ideas to reinvigorate Singapore.

We must have genuine discussions and rigorous debate involving a diversity of Singaporean voices as we seek to navigate the challenging waters ahead.

We need leaders who listen and who are receptive to those voices and needs.

In the last few years, I have been approached by countless Singaporeans who have asked me to stand for political office. These are Singaporeans from all walks of life.

I am deeply humbled. Many Singaporeans are very troubled that Singapore no longer has the leadership it needs. Sadly, the current government has failed its people.

The rising anger and frustrations of the populace speaks for itself. The PAP has lost its way.

We need to take action now. Speak up and be heard. Discuss openly the issues facing our country. Read and share independent journalism.

Seek transparency and accountability in government.

Talk to your friends and family to help them see the need for change. Volunteer your time and resources to support the parties you believe in.

Vote fearlessly. Rescue the future of the country we love.

Politics is not just for politicians. It is for every citizen.

Quite frankly, we do not need another Familee member in Parliament. And if you think a candidate has political 'street cred' simply because he shares the name and DNA of your beloved ah gong... you are part of the problem.

Daft 70% Sinkies will definitely misconstrue this as an extension of the 'petty' Familee feud.
