The PAP has mentioned time and again about the 'quality' candidates fielded by the opposition.On what basis does it compare? Seems to me that even if you are 'highly qualified' but not on its team, you are trash.Just look at the way they run down the opposition candidates one by one.Whereas they field young and untested newbies from their fold who go around shaking every resident's hands with 'godfathers' in tow.
Conclusion, as long as PAP rules, there won't be an opposition.
