Is MM Lee waking up to reality or is it another scaremongering rant?
-
What MM Lee means is that the day that PAP losing power will come,"But only after his death".Which means,if he dont die,there wont be any changes to current political situation.
Opposition parties will still having only 2 seats in the parliament n have to keep quiet most of the time during parliament meeting.
Thats why ppl hated MM Lee so much,he obstruct the "traffic" just for his own selfish greed for power.

Correct.I was talking to a local female taxi driver about how bad the situation in SInkapore have become, then I talked about PAPist people having properties abroad and if things here collapse, they would take our money and flee this place.
She was throughly startled.
I think locals are still not aware of how serious things are becoming in Sinkapore, they think that there's still time to fix things or some other reasons.
Thieves (PAPist) will never wait for police (opposition) to get trained before they start stealing.
It is now or never.

I think MM also knows that the economic and political system they created is not sustainable nor good for the continued growth of Singapore.
It's like taking steroids for short term economic / political gains.
Sooner or later, laws of nature will catch up.

I cant imagine what sg will be like if the MIW pack up and walk.......

PAP's system is based on alien values imported from the west and imposed upon an asian society, that is why the foundation is weak.
That is why PAP doesn't have popular support and have to rely on repression and depoliticisation. That is why nation building failed. That is why people are alienated from the government. That is why the people in Singapore can never progress, never improve under the current system but have to import alien "talents".
PAP will collapse after Harry Lee Kuan Yew is dead. They won't survive.

THE BABAS OF SINGAPORE
What makes Singapore different? The majority of Singapore's population is ethnically Chinese, but Singapore is largely free of corruption, has sound institutions and the rule of law dominates. It's nothing like China. The answer lies in a historical division in Singapore's Chinese community between the babas and the sinkeh. The sinkeh, comprising the majority of the city-state's population, were the recent immigrants from China, or whose parents were born in China. They spoke Chinese, lived like Chinese and considered themselves overseas Chinese. In Indonesia, such Chinese were called the totok.
The babas, on the other hand, also known as Straits Chinese, were Chinese more in name than practice. They were the descendants of the very early Chinese immigrants (Hokkiens from the Fujian province) to the straits settlements of Malaya (Penang, Singapore and Malacca). They assimilated with both the local Malays and the colonising British, whom they especially admired. The babas developed their own culture, cuisine and language - Malay liberally sprinkled with Hokkien.
The sinkeh were the traders, the coolies and the shophouse owners. The babas became the lawyers, the civil servants and the politicians; they attended the local English-language schools run in the tradition of the UK's public schools, and Oxford and Cambridge. If the sinkeh received an overseas education at all, it was in Nanking or another university in China. Although the sinkeh dominated Singapore's population, it was the babas who dominated public decision-making. In effect, a baba minority captured sinkeh Singapore, and that minority's attitudes were more those of Victorian England than China.
It was the babas who were the framers of Singapore's rules and institutions. Many of Singapore's most prominent Chinese have had baba backgrounds. Lee Kuan Yew, who became prime minister of Singapore aged just 35, is the most obvious example. He claims a Hakka heritage, although his upbringing was that of a baba: at home, he spoke English with his parents and baba Malay to his grandparents. "Mandarin was totally alien to me and unconnected with my life," Lee said of his childhood.
For Lee, Chineseness was an acquired skill and later a political necessity. He was not brought up as a Chinese with a focus on China, but as a baba who looked to England. He followed the conventional career path of a baba and went to London to study law. And so Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore became Harry Lee of Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge. His father had given him and two of his brothers English, as well as Chinese, names.
Did Lee run Singapore as a piece of Asia mired in Chinese ways?
No. He ran it in a manner to which a British colonial administrator would have aspired.
That other great framer of Singapore's institutions, Goh Keng Swee, who rose to become finance minister and deputy prime minister, is the epitome of the baba elite. Goh was born in 1918 in Malacca, the epicentre of baba culture, into a baba family. His parents were English-oriented Chinese Methodists.
The baba influence is now more subtle, but still there. Singapore's current prime minister Lee Hsien Loong has the strongest baba pedigree of any of the country's leaders.

Endangered species?
For goodness sake, Lee Kuan Yew practically filled the entire cabinet with inbred Peranakans.
For the last few decades in Singapore, the top positions in civil service, statutory boards, armed forces, GLCs have all along been going disproportionately to the Peranakans.
That is one reason why Singapore has been run to the ground.
Lee Kuan Yew worked with the Japanese Kempeitai and later the British colonizers to suppress the non-Peranakan Chinese.
That's why he has always been wary of non-Peranakan Chinese and could only entrust power to his own family members and his other Peranakan cronies.

No need to imagine lah.
The neighbour up north is just waiting for an excuse to march in.
1. To save their brethrens suffering here.
2. To reclaim what's theirs, because the British document is not a valid one.
Singapore will be worse off than Penang. Semua Boleh. That mean you can do anything, except not pay taxes, or cause political trouble.

Do u guys know what is the "Soft Power" that MM Lee n the rest of the PAP ministers keep stressing about?That is to sell our local women to the expats who work here,so that the U.S n Western countries can continue to side the PAP regime.
In other word,the PAP ministers are relying on women to make their jobs easy.I bet when GCT,LHL n LKY visit those Western countries n Americans,they will ask their wives to suck the co-ck of those Americans n Western ministers.LKY might even ask his grand daughter to suck those countries ministers co-ck as well.
