I think he has a choice. Look at WP. WP may not be really good
enough to topple PAP, but at least it's slow and steady.
An old adage goes "Slow and steady wins the race."
Yes, it's slow, and maybe most of the posters here will not get to
see WP win it in our lifetime. But things don't last, LKY can't
change that, LHL can't change that, nobody can change that.
We gained our independence this way. While it wasn't really a long
fight as compared to other countries, it's still a long enough
fight.
SDP should sit down, take a cold hard look at all the policies,
brainstorm together as a team, look at what's wrong, what's right,
rather than blasting at about every issue that PAP brings up.
PAP, as we have seen, has the most power in Singapore. Chee can't
beat them with his existing powers. He has to get another PAP
member and secure a seat as an NMP and debate like what Sylvia Lim,
Low Thia Kiang and Chiam See Tong is doing.
Use wits to beat PAP, show the people that he's sincere, not power.
There's a limit to power, but not wits and sincerity. We are humans
after all, we can be flexible and we can feel.
