Barely seven months after Lawrence Wong led the People’s Action Party to victory in his first election as prime minister, the government is onto its next strategic task: renewing its talent pipeline to preserve the long-term stability it’s become known for.

The process typically takes years, but with no clear frontrunners, the PAP is moving now to avoid any future leadership vacuum. Wong, 53, has said previously he wants the country’s next generation of leaders to take shape by the general election due by 2030.
 
Signs of dementia in the elderly include significant memory loss (forgetting recent events, asking repetitive questions), difficulty with familiar tasks, impaired judgment, confusion about time/place, trouble with words/communication, social withdrawal, and noticeable mood/personality changes like agitation, depression, or anxiety, all disrupting daily life beyond normal aging.

An old man acting like a child can stem from dementia/cognitive decline, stress/trauma causing regression (Peter Pan Syndrome), personality traits, or simply a desire to be cared for and let go of adult responsibilities, often linked to feeling overwhelmed or seeking comfort; it's a complex behavior reflecting deep-seated needs or neurological changes.

Cognitive/Neurological Causes
  • Dementia: Conditions like Alzheimer's can cause memory gaps and loss of learned behaviors, leading to childlike expressions or dependency as the brain regresses developmentally.
  • Brain Changes: With aging, changes in brain function can affect self-control, emotional regulation, and judgment, sometimes leading to impulsivity or simplistic reactions.

Psychological & Emotional Causes
  • Regression: Under stress, fear, or insecurity, adults may regress to earlier developmental stages where they felt safer and cared for, needing comfort.
  • "Peter Pan Syndrome": A non-clinical term for adults who resist responsibility and accountability, preferring play and dependency.
  • Coping Mechanism: It can be a way to cope with physical decline, loss of independence, or the overwhelming changes of aging, allowing them to be cared for without the burden of adult decisions.
  • Attention-Seeking: Sometimes, it's a way to get attention or express needs they can't articulate, similar to how children act out.
