  Many people know LHL is LKY's son who is Singapore's PM and Minister of Finance but heard many people said that LHL lacks abilities to command the loyalty of his people. LHL really lacks abilities to command the loyalty of his people?Please share your views here..

  Look at it, the 1st 4 emperors of Qing Dynasty managed the nation into a pretty strong one. So, it actually depends.
  If they start to "manage" the internet, continue to give out carrots ... and take gold home ... hmm ...

  QIN, not QING. have you gotten your chinese history right? qin= roughly 2000 years ago founded by qin shii huang after uniting the warring states. qing= 1614, founded by the machurians who conquered the ming dynasty.

  wow.. someone here see it the same way as i do...
  S'pore is really a modern Qin Dynasty...
  
  but to me, LHL is better than his father.
  his has more background in economics, which is more relevant today.
  
  i suspect, its the father whos less popular.

  The great emperors of ching Dynasty were the true people that really help their commoners. There were at least one or two ching Emperor whom were willingly to sarcrifice their luxuries just to help its own commoners.
  Sad that the last era of Ching fell into a lady Dowager. In history...all the dynasties fallen were due to women held in power.
  
  Unlike singapore, For basic needs like transportation, utilities..... they talk about...oh! the companies have to be answerable to its shareholders. MY FOOT!!!
  
  The farks inside the stories of the shareholders....you and I know that who are the people..and by individual or personal they are the major shareholders. What a hypocrotic people. Singapore.

  He looks like a good prey when they (opposition) challenged him in his ward, but not his daddy or lau goh

  Good question. One option is to take a look at this website and take your pick here.

  One thing i have noticed that is PAP will not put some one who are far more outshine than LHL in their politic. Do you feel that they will put someone who can match LKY abilities to jeopadise their monopoly? Not to forget some time ago LKY admitted even the best won't even want to serve PAP.

  based on this GE, a crack in the pap is quite obvious. The GCT camp and the LHL camp (led by wong kan seng)
  
  ---gct called to move on after gomez. wks say no way, and continue to bullsh!t on gomez. lee follows his route.
  
  ---gct placed in charge of hougang and potong pasir (not his own will). who gets the blame if they dont get back the wards?
  
  ---the "gct ministers" ie. balakrishnan kept relatively silent throughout the campaign. the wks team slam everyone and everything.
  
  ---go count the no. of reports against pap by the biased straits times. most of them are directed at the gct camp.
  
  once old man dies, pap will split into 2. GCT half and LHL half. we will then have pap1, pap2 and wp. gonna be interesting.
