Do u think Singapore is ready for a female PM?

[keewee0415]

u mean HC or SXL?

surely not IR?

Why not Goh Han Yan or the one who said now is the best time to have babies in Singapore?

If you are looking for scholars there's Jasmin Lau too.

Japan got its first female PM...

is Singapore ready?

Cannot lah. Sinkies males always kbkp about Ns.

But if female commando BG with navy seal and ranger tab maybe acceptable

 

[coldish]

Is civil service.

A few are identified for fast track, while the rest have to put in time and show with results.

For Ah Ling, she not bad liao quite steady.

2015 - first GE; CEO of Business China
2018 - joined gahmen as SPS
2020 - second GE; promoted to MOS
2025 - third GE; promoted to SMS

After next GE she will likely become full minister, at about 50-51 yo and quite a progressive career.

For comparison, Grace Fu was made second minister at 48 yo and full minister at 51 yo.

It's a long game and one has to be patient esp if you come from NUS like SXL and GF and not smlj Cornell like Jeffrey Siowliao.

Compared to SXL, GF didn't do as much as the former before she a full minister.
Maybe the higher ups don't see it that way.
Well Jeffery to be fair he went to MIT and have a MBA. But I don't see how they can parachute anyone to be a minister at first term

I will vote for Lee Bee Hwa, she has the iron in her to negotiate with XJP and DT.

I wouldn't be surprised if she was betting on tcj to make pm.

[Orionz]

since when siol
bend for fake news...

 

[hammerhammer]

IR definitely out cos we might be ready for a female PM but definitely not ready to have a non Chinese PM

 

[wongkc]

Can always implement “Reserved PM”… if no female PM for 5 terms… next PM only female can be selected as PM…

 

[lightningflash]

No need to be ready. They can just do it and sinkies will not do anything about it. At least 60% won't

 

[zamowk]

Omg please no! All hopeless and waste tax payer money

 

[Overture1928]

As long as they are capable, I don’t care for their race or gender.

But if it’s for the sake of performative DEI, then GTFO
