Actually, its should not really be a matter of who runs
Singapore - it should be the civil service that essentially runs
Singapore basically; the airports, the transport authority, the
hawker centres - regardless of which government comes into
power.
Of course there are the mayoral level responsibilities for
individual townships and GRC's, but both Low and Chiam have showed
that at the micro level, the opposition can perform well, even when
the nation-level funding, for which their consituencies should
rightfully have some share, is not given in order to punish the
voters, as it were.
Somewhere there is the thought that the civil service is part of
the PAP government, and one wonders if this in fact true or just a
ruse to frighten folks that they imagine mounds of garbage piling
high in front of their house because there will be a breakdown of
system?
