I remember Stephen Chow's Beggar So movie, the emperor told Su Qi Er that with 1m Beggar Sect members he cannot sleep.

Beggar So simply told him that the number of Beggar Sect members is not determined by Beggar So, but by the emperor.

If the emperor has been doing a good job to bring good life to the people who will want to work as a beggar?

Similarly PAP dun seem to realize that only they themselves can determine how strong the oppo is by their policies, not by politically fixing the oppo.

That's what happens with the lack of competition. Downfall of many corporations. SG Inc. isn't an exception.

This is a very simple thread. I already outlined the direct linkage of the analogy in my first post isn't it? No need to guess the implication behind my analogy.

Analogy bro....

Number of beggars in the Qing dynasty = The emperor's efforts to bring good life to the people.

Number of oppo supporters in Singapore = PAP's efforts to bring good life to the people.

The key thing is the number.

Small number = easier to manage.

Big number = harder to manage.

That depends on what the definition of "good" is lor.

May be different for everyone.

That was the best line in the movie..

they are too engrossed in bringing in foreigners…

Yes. Instead of focusing efforts to eliminate all opposition to the emperor's power, he is better off implementing good policies to give his people a better life.

+1 for best line

So incumbent is good right with over 60% votes previously, means they did a good job? 60% >>40%.
