Please, what LKY say can be right, mainly because there is no
way for us to tell the future.
The current opposition may not run singapore well, mainly
because the current opposition don't really want to do so. But, the
ability of the opposition party can change.
Voting for an oppostion does NOT mean that the opposition can
run the country better than the ruling party. There
IS a possibility that the oppostion will mismanage
singapore..which some members here LOVES to
ignore.
Is seeking a politcal gain better than us having a harder time
living in singapore? I don't think so. Some members view about the
politics is way too personal and short-sighted. They don't give a
damn about what is good for other singaporeans, they just want to
have things that suit their personal interest.
And at times, their personal interest in the short term may
cause them much hardship in the long term.
I would rather have the opposition having a harder time to climb
it's way to the top, as compared to simply spoon-feeding them and
granting them power.
An oppostion party that climbs it way to the top have a better
chance of being prepared in the role as the government as compared
to an opposition which won a sudden and dramatic victory.
Unless one person is from the future, there is NO way for anyone
to say if LKY is right or wrong, other than saying there is a
chance for it to happen.
And please, we don't need to go V for vendetta just to ensure
the opposition can win, In fact, even if the oppostion came to
power via 'V for vendetta', there is no way to tell if that
oppositon is any better.
A good opposition can defeat a strong ruling party just like how
some commanders can defeat an army larger than him through sheer
genius.
And also, the PAP is already having trouble finding support from
the 4th generation of singaproe, my generation that is, the people
who was born in the late 80s-90s, people who have experienced the
full prosperity that singapore enjoys.
If the opposion fail to gain their support from the 4th
generation, then it is the opposition fault for losing it and not
the PAP's fault.
Actually, the current political landscape is good for the
opposition, because they needs to be smart just to win the
election...as compared to simply shouting out
rhetoric ...
