haha...GCT and LKY were once chiefs of PAP...they don't have to
leave and start a new party, do they? Very telling of the quality
of WP leaders and the disunity within the Party. First,
resignations by new WP leaders over the internet, now this....
Is the WP the only political party
that saw its party disintegrate ?
It was very convenient and easy for you to be dishonest - in your
usual characteristic way - with your preferred skewed view of
Singapore's political history that are twisted to favor your
Political Master.
The Ruling Party was disintegrated when the other Party Members
split along the lines that divided those who were locally educated
and Mandarin speaking, and those who were educated overseas and
English speaking.
The disintegration of the PAP saw the birth of the Barisan
Sosialist under Dr Lee Siew Choh in the early 1960s, and another
disintegration saw Singapore under PAP being kicked out of
Malaysia, with its DAP Malaysian branch being separated in all
political relationship.
Another fact that was not observed and just as telling is the fact
that -
if LHL was not diagnosed for his cancer, GCT would never had the
opportunity to win the trust from LKY - to relinquish the
Secretary-General position to GCT.
When GCT took over as PM from LKY, GCT did not automatically
takeover the Party Sec-Gen position; and when LKY was asked by the
Foreign Press if he had given away too much power by relinquishing
the PM position - LKY replied that "he maybe the PM, but I am the Party
Secretary-General... " .
This itself is even more telling of the mistrust of LKY towards his
own inner circle, that he has to maintain his grip on political
power.
It is even more telling that when LHL took over as PM, the Party
Secretary-General position was immediately relinquished by GCT -
all under the watchful eye of the Old Man himself.
The mistrust within the Ruling Party continues, with the continued
powers of LKY as a Minister Mentor, allowing LKY to continue as the
Guardian of Singapore's Politics, as well as to retain the Chair in
GIC.
There are more that our eyes and minds are allowed to know - for
the continued existence and insistence of LKY in his mid-80s to
continue being involved in managing the Singapore Reserves, as well
as in all spheres of Singapore Politics - (that covers wages to
Ministers, to SIA Pilots, to workers' employment contracts, to
family life, to marriages, etc).
Can we blame LKY for his deep mistrust when we have incapable PhD,
who think with a hollowed out brain, and can only indulge in petty
politics ?

brokenhearted to face the facts confronting WP? Lke the cantonese
would say, "No eyes to see"
When you have "No eyes to see" -
what can you learn, and without learning anything, how can you
speak with anything from your brain ?
No wonder you prefer to be a mushroom - there is a saying in
Hokkien - 'Kay Kiang... "
- "trying to be smart " .
Unfortunately, losers are those who pretend to be bigger than what
they are capable of, as what we have seen in this Speaker's
Corner.
What else can we expect from a useless mushroom, but to spit poison
at the efforts of strengthening and building a credible Alternative
Political Force ?
Can we expect you to be generous towards the efforts made by the
Alternative Political Force, when it is clear that your declaration
of not being supportive of the politics from the Ruling Party is
nothing but more of your characteristic dishonesty ?
JBJ's decision not to return to the Workers' Party is a reflection
of his generous character towards a Party that he has not guided
since he became a bankrupt; and with the party in the capable hands
of Low Thia Kiang and Sylvia Lim, why will he want to usurp powers
from these two persons by returning to the Workers' Party ?
Why will he want to ignite an internal power struggle, and cause
further fractures or widen the fault lines that have characterised
the Alternative Political Parties since the 1950s ?
Were you showing your dishonest self again by short changing the
Cantonese in quoting them short with "No eyes to see" ?
Did you not know that the Cantonese also have the saying -
"Heaven have eyes" .... ?
