Wah ! Lee Kuan Yew threatened us . Are Singaporeans ready for a non - Chinese PM

Turning to local politics, Lee said in an AFP report that the ruling People's Action Party (PAP), which has been in power since 1959 when Singapore gained political autonomy from colonial ruler Britain, will someday lose its grip on power.

"There will come a time when eventually the public will say, look, let's try the other side, either because the PAP has declined in quality or the opposition has put up a team which is equal to the PAP... That day will come."

"In the next 10 years to 20 years, I don't think it'll happen. Beyond that, I cannot tell."


Lee said that despite a survey showing the contrary, he believed Singaporeans were not yet ready for a non-ethnic-Chinese prime minister.

"A poll says 90 percent of Chinese Singaporeans say they will elect a non-Chinese as PM. Yes, this is the ideal. You believe these polls? Utter rubbish. They say what is politically correct," he stated.

I do not mind having non-chinese PM, MM, SM or whatever Ms as long as he displays some soul, kind heartedness and compassion for Singaporeans at large. However, the current chinese PM, MM, SM and whatever Ms failed under such assessment and we have every reason to vote them out regardless of their race.

The facade is just a punching bag for the poor .

Race and religions are not problem when I choose leader. I want someone who is not disconnect and has guts enough to admit wrong and put things right.

We have also Chinese PM now. But our quality of life sucks big time with hyperinflation and low wage growth.

KNN !

Notice you wrote "leader" and not "PM". In actuality the leader of this country is definitely not the PM.

So to me the next PM can be an Apache Indian, Siberian reindeer herdsman or Romanian gypsy... it doesn't matter when Old Hakka is still the MM.

Don't forget the keling president.

Utter rubbish!
Do we have a choice who the PM will be? The question should be, are the papies ready to choose a non-chinese as a PM?
