The problem is not he follow or never follow his father.

The problem is when he take over as PM, the internal and external conditions have changed. When conditions change, there will be implications.

What PM Lee failed is he failed to recognize the S'pore population have become more educated, different thinking, values, and behavioural tendencies.

He also failed to recognized the social values is getting outdated. Some of the Principles are outdated and no longer relevant.

Technology have advanced, he failed to recognize that he can utilized them and there is a need to change system approaches, thinking, and political ideology. After 2008 crisis, the free market fundamentalism philosophy is discredited, pareto principle without wealth distribution will widen income inequality. The assumption that market will auto correct problems and wealth will trickle down to majority is false - Corporations are hoarding the financial resources.

He also failed to recognize new emerging problems caused by immigration policy. Basically, he sticked to status quo and his father's approach. :s12:


then the mistake must be on the person or people who pushed him to become our PM

LHL will never be able to match up to his father's legacy

Thats the problem. He shouldnt match up. Hes been following his fathers method all this while and it isnt working.

Now that hes gone, I think its a positive for him and for singapore in general

attributing Singapore's success to 1 person?

PUI!

Exactly. Think hes learned his lessons and trying to be as open as possible. Now that the shackles has been unlocked. Think we'll finally see the real LHL. Good or worse, I dont know. But i'm still not taking gamble on any opposition.

There is so few opposition in parliament, if u vote for PAP then u are gambling. Without balance of power u will see corruption, complacency, abuse of power, repeat again soon.

Balance of power is achieved by a ratio that anytime can change ruling party. Let's say 81 seats. PAP 41 seats, Oppo 40 seats, then this is call balance of power. Balance of power means anytime can swing votes and change ruling party. :s12:
