NTUC chief is a PA chief? PA is under PMO?
50 years of PAP as one party government even screwed themselves up?
If toothpick Lim revolt against PAP he control the mass easily. One man wears many hats at the same time?
Life must be hard working for PAP. Simi lanjao things ask one person to do? Singapore got not enough talents is it?

NTUC Chief who is also People’s Association (PA) deputy chief, Lim Swee Say, reminded grassroots leaders of their role in the community at an annual grassroots seminar.
The seminar was attended by some 1,200 grassroots leaders yesterday (13 Sep).
Speaking to his grassroots leaders, Mr Lim displayed a Straits Times report dated April 26, 1960, which announced the formation of PA and its main task – “To keep in constant touch with the people”.
This showed that the primary duty of grassroots leaders to act as the Government’s touchpoints on the ground has remained the same over the years, he said.
Mr Lim later told the media, “Over the last four years, we have been introducing new concepts, new strategies to our grassroots movement.” These include decentralising community outreach efforts to individual constituencies and bringing back mass sports events such as the Community Games in 2011.
The changes are meant to strengthen the role of the grassroots movement, not to change its function, added Mr Lim.
