I won't read too much into his promotion. Many of them are there
as just for "what the american called" - smoke and mirror.
Side shows to keep the gang going. Two terms and they have pension
for life, not to mention CPF, director salary, public company
bonus, consultation fee etc.
The big boss already said, he will spare no effort to get the ppl
he wants, from anywhere, anyplace, anytime, and place them at the
highest positions.
The next PM can come from anywhere. So guys, don't be surprise if
the next PM is a foreigner. Don't say you never been warned.
