And a single party like China and North Korea would work?
North Korea cannot work because
absolute power is confined to a few who do not have the interests
of the citizens. China works reasonably well for the china
chinese because there are some effort to to keep citizens' interest
and the citizens' culture is to look forward to Beijing for justice
and care. 90% feel they are han ren and they might just as
foolish to be manipulated like sporeans manipulated by politicians
from all parties. If the communists could
maintain stability and pursue with the aim to advanced to 1st
world, it is possible to attain may be not in 2050 but much later
because of high average age of 35 and rising wages of the coastal
cities and 2nd tier cities. If the communists become 2 party
democratic system it wil be in random walk with no net progress and
to attain first world would be over infinite
time.
Singapore is a democratic country
with experienced generally good govt as a whole together with
alternative voice will be able to maintain 1st world
status. Now pap is already diminished to very soft and polite
voice compared to the fierce LTK where even just won a by-election
would still fiercely unfounded attack at pap! The
dictatorship characteristics have been changed to wp
already
