Prior to his appointment, he was Minister of Education. He has two masters degrees. He was Senior Minister of Trade and Industry. Are all these “piggy-bank” positions? Of course, I don’t think facts would matter to you, you’re more interested in playing the tension game, I think.

Please grow up, unless you want to become like Malaysia, or the United States.

Previously we have one CEO in charge of NKF.
Then we have a President in charge of the key to our reserves.
Next we have one for a Finance Minister.

I just wonder whether is it that they can easily be manipulated by those in power.

You kena-ed again???
It’s not the right place to ask this sort of question lah~
Anyway…

Politically, maybe becos:
1. The old rules have passed away before MM departs;
2. You are using your own Id;
3. You are not yet a PAP member;
4. You no know the (old) rules (set by MM himself);
5. Someone is using his/her own rules on you.

Otherwise, maybe it’s indeed a bug.

Or they know you are easy to be banned.

Local politics is like a… sphere. And politics is… not like what you have thought to be on facts and such. Very hard to explain to you lah~

When you are in the sphere, you are positioned somewhere, or those aware shall position himself somewhere not too close to the core and just not outside the parameter.

You’d never understand why PAP is making David Marshal a hero after he retired from service when WP is getting stronger if you don’t understand politics.

Elfred is positioning himself right at the parameter, the bo-chap zone in politics.

In the mindset of MM, there is something called within the system, and outside the system.

Now you know why I am kinda scare that he departs too early… The rules or PAP tradition will just change into something else. MM only goes after the kinds pursuing too aggressive politics threatening to destablise the status quo…

Other people… I don’t know. I can’t imagine s well. N many want him dead, not knowing what they are asking for…

Personal opinion.

Goodnite.

MOE – interesting that they’ve now moved in two Manpower / personnel related people at the top. Their new Perm Sec Ms Yeo Chee Yean used to be at MCYS and PSD (both people-oriented portfolios).

Could it be they finally realised that teaching staff need some TLC and it’s not just about rankings? There is cause for optimism actually.

Is that the reason why so many of us have been banned
from entering into YPAP Forum by our ISP?

Can throw more light?

Firstly, this is obviously an interim exercise to move people around. As for Mr Tharman’s appointment, he was actually the ‘designated’ Finance Minister, and I knew that years back.

What you have to realise about Finance Ministry is this, the influence is still PM Lee. So in a way, the real control behind this ministry is still with the MM and PM.

Mr Tharman has been with MAS for that long, if you were the PM you’d place him in this job esp when many things are happening recently in the money sides. No surprise.

I am more concerned about MICA because all of us online should be curiously cautious. Shanmugam’s got a reputation after NKF thingy, Gan Kim Yong scored by inputing coming controls in private education sector where CASE’d be seemingly replaced by another new entity, and Dr Vivian our YP chief is obviously gonna concentrate on the Youth Olympic thing alongside with Teo Ser Luck. Mr Khaw is busy fighting in his health sector. Now Mr Ng has own fight in the private education sector.

A for the women, maybe we’d have some women ministers in future, but the same surprise is Dr Vivian is not in MICA. Hahahaha… But we have a CID chief (is it???) in MICA plus a supposedly ‘righteous’ Mr Shanmugam in Law…

What do you think?

We can expect Mr Ng to fight in education as Mr Khaw is doing, but in MICA… after the northern happenings… I am sure MM is thinking more the Internet nowadays.

Do update us if you guys have any news. ;)

Pls pardon any typos.

What the hell we need to have so many senior ministers promoted from three to eight ?

What the hell that the PM are so inept that he need so many ministers to help him ? Remember all these ass@$#holes are the highest paid and over-paid in the world, and their performance is all about delivering half-fuc@#$ked solution at expense of citizen.

No wonder we need to increase GST, price hike to feed these shameful ministers and president.

Stop telling us that without PAP, Singapore will die. In reality, with PAP, Singapore will die faster.

Everything based on the big “IF”. Living in a Fairy Land?

My big “IF” is that if Vivian remains as a minister than we would
be taken for a long ride.
