I don't know about the rest of the world but the politicians in NZ are worthless. If they weren't politicians, they'd be starving to death.
A 2nd tier country as NZ isn't worth mentioning in the first place.

Why did it have to wait till 2016? Everything that is wrong with the fucking PAP could easily have been fixed in 2011!
Sacrifices that they have to make:
............
e. Cannot profit from 'insider info' unlike civil servants who still can buy shares.

Politicians lead and they don't sacrify. The people sacrifice. LHL asking you to bear with them for the overcrowding problems, MRT screwups, floods, Singtel outage, housing shortages, stop at two....etc
2011 was a bad yr for many dictators & tyrants, many have gone to see the maker... the remaining ones taken their queue numbers for 2012.Well as you know, Singapore is predominately Chinese with kiasu mentality and probably testing water. 2016 will be a day of reckoning for LKY if he can survive.

No sacrifices. Only sexcrifices. Become MP cannot call chicken.
One thing that always seem to stand out in comments by public and even analysts is the "exceptional" sacrifices our political leaders have to make.
Are sacrifices something that only Singapore leaders have to make? This is an important question, because many people use it to argue for their "exceptional" remuneration.
Political leaders are elected into office thru GEs, so they are "protected" from being fired immediately if they dont perform, but they are paid like CEOs of private corporations. Voters have to wait for 5 years to do so and only if the electoral rules have not been tweaked to provide them cover, not even mentioning that more idiots can get "elected' thru the GRC system on the coat tails of Ministers!
No need to call chickens. They have many female volunteers waiting and wanting to be screwed by their MP. Already happened.

Haha........lol. But the reality is Cleopatra Saw is a lesbo, well known since her school days. A number of her previous partners are prominent people now. And in case u are wondering which role she plays, she's the butch.
Men are at fault here coz none of us gave her the chance to feel like a woman.
You go and volunteer to console her since she and LTY fell out already.
The capable leaders in society aren't going into politics because generations of Singaporeans have been depoliticized by the hollowing out of civil society, muzzling of the media, denial of civil liberties, and grassroots indoctrination via PA and other partisan bodies masquerading as community outfits.
in first world countries what attracts people into politics is the chance to participate, to feel that you can make a positive difference, something that is looked up to by your contemporaries, the "feel-good" limelight factor, etc. All this is absent in Singapore because of our barren political landscape created by having all the power concentrated in the hands of a few who make all the key decisions unilaterally. The "few" also have their tentacles and grip on every facet of society, every public institution, every avenue of expression.
And also not forgetting the image of the govt and its credibility has gone way down the drain for the past 20 years. Which decent chap would want to be openly associated with such an establishment?
That's why the PAP has to attract talents with money and cannot escape it. Even Gerard Ee and the whole gangbang kept talking about how it would be more difficult henceforth to attract talent. They are admitting basically they have to use money to buy people over, and they have lost the ability to appeal to the citizens' sense of community spirit and servant leadership.
That's the whole damn trouble. 50 years of self-serving policies and destructive methods, and they have destroyed their ability to stand on the moral high ground and rouse the political calling of talented people.
This is the start of the decline, and no amount of pay cuts will solve the problem. The problem is with the PAP itself, the monolithic entity that began well in 1959 but was systematically moulded by LKY into a rancid potpourri of megalomaniac and selfish individuals with no sense of community or country.
