  Our ministers are already in the upper half of 1st world now but for the average Singaporeans we only hope we don't spiral downwards!

  Seems like through the years, the quality of PAP lackeys are lacking, no wonder they are falling out of favour with the citizens. I think they should start recruiting people of higher calibre for lackeys, else next election, they might get 49%.

  I guess intelligence must have been a recessive trait in your genes, that would explain the current situation. Or maybe it's a consequence of inbreeding.
