people now join politics now to earn high pay, rather than the desire to serve the people. only during pre-elections then they start to do their hearts and minds crap, to show the public that they care....or bait the public with upgrading or free money to buy their votes. Hell, even the PM readily admits this
Too bad, it might work for the old generation simpletons who die-die support PAP for what its supposedly did for us in the 60s,70s,80s against the so-called communist threat , yada, yada, yada. Now the younger generation who are more IT-savvy can see for themselves the propaganda and the bullshit they spew for 40 years. We might not see PAP lose power in the near future.. but they will fall eventually.
And does the public actually realise the magnitude of the losses? How come no inquiry over the lost of this money. Hell i might as well ask an gambler ah pek to be CEO considering how recklessly OUR money was lost trying to float some western banks? the ah pek might even earn us cash better than these fools.

maybe they equate money with power!
Apparently Robert Mugabe, Idi Amin, Kim Jong iL. Ferdinand Marcos, Suharto have the same mentality....

to build his nest overseas for him and his cronies when SIngapore collapses and he goes on self-exile. Provided he live to see it happen.
