Will SG allow polygamy?
-
This article is published in the eighties about LKY about polygamy and monogamy in singapore .
He addressed the issue of the dangerously declining birth rate and he suggested that it was erroneous to follow the West in being monogamous and a shift has to be made to steer Singapore away from the disastrous consequences ahead. He recommended polygamy as the solution, for correcting the declining birth rate, for dealing with the problem of the increasing number of unmarried women, for nation building and more....
The successful, whether you’re a scholar, a Mandarin or a successful businessman or successful farmer, you had more than one wife.
In fact you can have as many as your economic status entitles you or can persuade people to give their daughters up to you.
In other words, the unsuccessful are like the weak lions or bucks in a herd, they were neutralised.
So over the generations you must have the physically and the mentally more vibrant and vital, reproduce. We are doing just the opposite.
We introduced monogamy. It seems so manifestly correct. The West was successful, superior. Why? Because they are monogamous.
It was wrong. It was stupid.
When Mr. Tanaka was asked in the Japanese Diet five, six years ago "You’ve got another mistress with children there," he nodded in vehement agreement. He said, "That’s quite right."
And the more Tanakas there are in Japan, I have no doubt the more dynamic will be Japanese society. There was no embarrassment.
But we have worked ourselves into an awkward position. We’ve got to work ourselves out of it and your generation has got to do something about it.

What sane man would want that much wives for?

Since LKY behaves like an Emperor and is as wealthy as an Emperor, perhaps he should take the lead to have more than 1 wife?
But wait, with his age, his poor wife will probably be f*cking an impotent guy so better not marry him

Well, never say never.. it wasn't so long ago that our dear old Harry declared that we would "never" have casinos.. now more than 1 IR is due to pop up. So, PC-ness aside, yeah sure we would, if it would help bring in the bucks.
