Goh Chok Tong you mean?

Anyway he seems bit too independent and power-hungry to be a seat-warmer. There is a reason why LHL likes NCM so much, think he wants people obedient to him one.

Not sure how did LW became PM, imo he is unlikely to guai guai listen to LHL. The LKY-GCT dynamics is unlikely to be replicated with him and LHL.

The fact that LW made GKY the sole DPM quite telling liao, plus now only LHL senior minister no more TCH to keep a lookout on LW.
Xiasuay was the front runner even b4 2020's erection. But unlike the other 4G candidates, he lacks family backing. Before East Coast Plan became the frontrunner, it was clear that Xiasuay was the strongest contender.

2019 ECP became DPM - and he's in the running for PMship.
2019 Nov ECP's "recuse" gaffe - it's obvious he cmi.
2020 Feb Audio leak of Xiasuay - kicking him out of the lace for PMship.
2020 Jul GE
2021 Apr ECP withdrew from consideration for PMship in future.
The other 4G candidates jostled but no clear front runner could be seen.
So the surprise compromise candidate Liang Po Po was given the nomination.
Is Xiasuay out of the lace? Has he given up? Who nose? I am not a fly on the wall and I dun have any Deep Throats either.

He got 孙子兵法in him. According to wiki

Chan excelled as a student at the United States Army Command and General Staff College in 1998, and was the first foreign student to be conferred the Distinguished Master Strategist Award in the same year

军权在握,in ancient times, even the emperor will be wary of him...
You Singaporean? It is no secret that the Defence Minister, CDF, and the various Chiefs are paper tigers. Not because they are incompetent. But because Singapore guys won't have the balls to go along with them if they call for a mutiny.

He should thank NCM bro for slipping up time and again
Honestly if under NCM, scarly he maybe go suggest 3 years NS and don't know how many ICT cycles.

He is like those army regulars suggest things to make everyone know his presence and think that very capable/clever one like my Sgt Major during my NS days.

Everytime go meetings, always come up with funny suggestions one like do mounting duties in no.9 uniform. That time my camp is DB, and inside the DB structure super hot. No.9 will kill ppl one.

Then NCM during his time in MOE, come up with dunno area cleaning all those nonsense, etc.

Education, Defence, and Finance are all important ministries. I don’t see how this is a comeback.
