Survey on PM Lee
-
Sylvia has more substance than LHL. Does LHL has any substance? At least, she is people oriented.Originally posted by soul_rage:if I can vote, I will vote Sylvia for PM.
After all, she can beat all the ministers with one hand.
Just look at her speech, so passionate, and people-centric
Our ministers? Aside from giving inept excuses for raising their pay, what else have they done?
I believe in what my dad said. Should we one day wake up, and our ministers are wiped out, contrary to what LKY said, I don't think we will become maids and labourers. Our civil service, being so well-oiled, will continue to run until a new cabinet is setup. -
Currently, NO ONE in PAP has the qualities of Sylvia...
Not a single one of them are Peopl Oriented, or People Centric...
PAP is all about the economy, revenues, self-preserving policies, and money for themselves... -
Good in maths does not mean one will be a good finance minister. He is living in his own world lah, look at the way he runs the country!Originally posted by soul_rage:getting a degree = intelligent???
I know of many straight As or top student in university that can't make it in working life.
Sorry, to me, having a degree only proves that a person is good at studying that's all.
Let me quote you a case where I think its a proof of stupidity
When he was forced to hold GST back by 1% (he wanted to hike the GST from 3% to 5%, but was forced to hike it up to 4% first, then 5% later), he made comments about holding back the GST, and saying that its only a psychological effect that people are so uptight about the GST increase (its only a few cents, he means)
Do you know that in retail, its ALL ABOUT psychology? Marketing Ads, publicity stunts, are all meant to work on differentiating goods from one another, and in most cases, are more about psychology than about truth.
As a Finance Minister then, I could not believe he made that statement (its just psychological), it shows how much he does not know about the economy...
Well, yea double masters in maths, good at 1 + 1 = 2, so what?
Have not suffered before, can't reach down to the level of the common people, display more interest in making lots of money than take good care of the nation. Really, how how to trust him to lead Singapore! -
he is enjoying the fruit of the labour of his predecessor. Perhaps, it is high time he show us his capability and prove that he deserves to be the PM .Originally posted by dakkon_blackblade:Well, he has certainly lost quite a bit of the moral authority to lead through his "mee siam mai hum" gaffe and unpopular policies such as the GST hike and ministerial pay rise.
However, as a leader he is still very much unproven. He has inherited quite a smooth-running system from his predecessors and has yet to really meet up with a serious crisis. In my opinion, crisis-handling is one of the hallmarks of whether a person is a good leader or not. Hence, it may be a genuine concern whether LHL would be capable of leading the country through a major crisis and emerge with credit. -
I think at home, he plays The Sims and Sim City a lot....Originally posted by zix1:Good in maths does not mean one will be a good finance minister. He is living in his own world lah, look at the way he runs the country!

yes, precisely!! May be he will be happier if he is a businessman. Have mercy and spare us as we are already suffering under your leadership. Have compassion and let someone who is really capable and people oriented to be our PM. So that this person can save Singapore as we are suffocating under his (LHL) leadership!!!Originally posted by ShutterBug:You know, LHL, you are so Super Rich... well connected internationally, talented in many ways....well versed in economics and commerce, WHY don't you just go and be a successful businessman somewhere else and stop TORTURING uss all here by trying to lead us?
Please, you are wasting your talents torturing us here in Singapore when you can make so much more all to yourself... and no one will protest or object when you raise your salary....
Go.. leave us be, we'll find our own way, and besides, there are so many waiting to take over when you leave...

Come on... in my eyes all the MPs male or female are all 'secretaries' carrying out orders...Originally posted by t_a_s:PAP women MPs lose to Sylvia, such as Irene Ng, denise phua, Lee bee wah, they cant do anything except say yes to their boss, what they can do ? Catch aedes mosquitoes ?
nothing more...
you know the term "organ grinder's monkey"...? -
Singapore needs to move on, we need more people like Sylvia to lead the country.Originally posted by ShutterBug:Come on... in my eyes all the MPs male or female are all 'secretaries' carrying out orders...

we need people with passion for Singapore in politics not people with passion for $$$ to stay "clean & uncorrupted"
-
WE need people who will go all the way for the country and the people as our govt. Earning $$$ is important but it should not take priority over country and people. INcreasing $$$$ in so many aspects within a short time is really unacceptable.Originally posted by LinYu:we need people with passion for Singapore in politics not people with passion for $$$ to stay "clean & uncorrupted" -
so deny them 2/3 majorityOriginally posted by zix1:WE need people who will go all the way for the country and the people as our govt. Earning $$$ is important but it should not take priority over country and people. INcreasing $$$$ in so many aspects within a short time is really unacceptable. -
NPNT....Originally posted by t_a_s:next election his daughter will join PAP and be a candidate, then there will be a woman PM then
-
You can't avoid it you know.. This is the Lee's DynastyOriginally posted by zix1:his daughter went on a trip with grandpa, so does that mean they are preparing her to enter politics? Or may be she will be our PM one day. Whether she will be or not, i don't want, we don't want another member of the same family to be PM, don't want!!!!

Of all things on earth, a human's legacy is the shortest lived...Originally posted by wave24:You can't avoid it you know.. This is the Lee's Dynasty
So, we worry not of this Dynasty, as it may and shall eventually Die Nasty... -
He want us to be friendly to foreign professional.
-
Who is the he, the lee hsien loong is it? If it is him, you go ask him to be nice to us, don't suka suka increase prices for this and that, ask him to be considerate. As a PM, he should be putting his heart and soul to serve us with passion with unselfish attitude. Politicians serve the nation. Nation judge their performance. People of the country is the boss of the PM.Originally posted by will4:He want us to be friendly to foreign professional. -
money aside if he performance well everyone can see. but i am not sure that is happening.Originally posted by LazerLordz:He's the most highly paid figurehead. -
if i am paid that much, i will wanna make sure I am worth the amount of $$$ i am getting.Originally posted by Arapahoe:money aside if he performance well everyone can see. but i am not sure that is happening. -
WELL SAID!!!Originally posted by the Bear:maybe.. he's progressive.. i mean, how many PMs are there in the world in a same-sex marriage?
-
One thing:...
'Mee Siam mai Hum'
Who the hell eats Mee Siam with Hum???
Has he even had Mee Siam before???? If he is so fundamentally out of touch with one of Singaporeans' core passion, how can he ever empathize with the common man???
Ok.. but at least he is seem to be trying and a bit more progressive than I had hoped.... but still....
