... he's good at dishing out 'Rules'...

... but not in following them...

If PM Lee was right in saying there is no incompetence on the part of the minister or ministry of home affair then his father MM Lee was clearly wrong in saying to the Arab audience there was complacency in some places within the government.

Is such complacency rectified. No PM Lee did not rectify such problems at all as can be seen in similar negligence in Took Leng How or Richard Yong escape in earlier repeated incidents.

It looks like he will not admit complacency at all. He tried to make speeches to avoid such major mistake and shortcoming but is refusing to see such glaring complacency happening at every level of ISD and prison department on many past occasions.

Just look at all these evidences of such complacency from the renovations of the prison toilet, the gaping holes in the toilet windows and the pipings next to the hole in the window, the manner of construction of fences all pointing to negligence on the part of ISD director and Prison Department and up all the way to the minister and PM Lee himself.

I suggested process management being set up to oversee all civil servants' daily duties and responsibilities for many years now and they are too proud and are not listening.

If they the civil servants are prepared to be hands-on answering for operational performance with databases coming in every month to confirm results how can there be such complacency and glaring errors of this dimension.

This is the consequence of having too many Chieftains paid 5 figures and millions shuttling from meetings to meetings and concepts and assumptions with all the talks about their leadership and achievement with grandiose ideas and precepts but being unable to deliver results and performance.

The article you posted from the online citizen is a good read.

Really.

"If they the civil servants are prepared to be hands-on answering for operational performance with databases coming in every month to confirm results how can there be such complacency and glaring errors of this dimension."

Actually results from third party sources are not reliable. The problem is the SIX figure chiefs are scholars with helicopter views. Did WKS ever step foot into the detention centre while the renovations are taking place?

And as to their grandoise ideas and precepts, there are none really. They simply lack the imagination to do so. Eye on Singapore - copy Eye on London. Gondola idea - copy of a copy (Macau copying Venice).

Say what you want about USA. The people at Gitmo dont get out.

Assuming, purely absolutely assuming,

that the decision by our leadership about WKS is right,

wow, does this not set the example for future generation of leaders to follow?

we need to ask ourselves this question.

Mandate comes from us.
