If you are Tun, what would you do?
this 93 year old is a willy one.janet88:

Pray for 2 things :
1. Wisdom of Spore new generation of leaders to face old Willy fox (he might 算账 with LHL for pally with Jip kor & get away with so much).
2. Wisdom for Sporeans to vote wisely in next election. Owise our own turf will be in chaos. That's what old Willy fox want to bring the news to LKY for bringing his son down! People's precious vote must be cast with mindful consideration.
Better chat with my kids, nieces & nephews. Long time ago in .... :rotflmao:
LKY not around to handle this fox...LHL and najib so buddy.
our turf is not really stable. worrying issues now are
1) LHL may not be able to handle this old willy fox
2) new PM doesn't have weight either.
Being mindful that you are 92 yo (as a doctor, probably very aware that everyday passed is a day closer to meeting your maker), has a son that doesn't have enough political clout to consolidate or maintain his influence, a loose coalition (that could still disintegrate, thus leaving your son in a more precarious position), a weaken opponent (UMNO / BN) but still hold enough institutional power through years of relationship building / cronyism...
I would think picking a fight with Singapore is probably Tun last priority.[/quote]
Now that daddy won over the Lego set, why can't the son make sth for himself? Still need the father to help him build the foundation? Useless fella. -
at aged 92, is he the oldest PM in the world, to be sworn in as PM ?

You think someone living on the eastern side of Singapore cares much about JRL?
Announcing JRL is not to help Jib...i think it's an attempt to win back Singaporeans with so much displeasure going on.floppy:
Why would you cancel something that benefit your constituents, thus surrendering a winning position over to the other side? Our last minute scramble to announce the JRL seems more like a 'favour' to help Jib gor-gor in those states (which didn't work out).
if Malaysia opposition can win, MIW would be afraid it will happen here too.
The fundamentals of Singapore politics are slightly different.
We don't have a Dr M, we don't have credible alternatives (the most feasible alternative, the WP, is unlikely to find enough bodies to contest > 50% of the seats), PAP's vote-bank (a.k.a. the pioneer generation) hasn't been abandoned (unlike UMNO rural Malays), etc.
Unless our bread and butter issues like cost of living (9% GST
), housing (but HDB getting cheaper wor :evil: ), employment figures (especially for PMET), etc. continue to tank, I doubt a wave election sweeping the PAP off its perch is going to happen anytime soon. The MIW should rightly be worried, but I think they think they are on the right track

Old man still very spritely, clear & lucid. Looks like he’ll likely rehash the whole East Coast line with China. Wants to renegotiate contract terms? Really?
His allies do not look happy - very measured facial expressions. M is just in cloud nine, winning @ 91 & certainly very confident & will hold on to the bird he got on hand.
Doesn’t sound like he’ll bail Anwar out in his Press Conference, altho he said will seek full pardon. So, his agenda is deep - 小儿子 to bring glory for his bloodline. -

*Ahem*
Now that daddy won over the Lego set, why can't the son make sth for himself? Still need the father to help him build the foundation? Useless fella.
Kindly refer to the following case study:
L... K... Y... and L... H... L...
:evil:
If daddy don't clear off the right and left flank, ensure that no one sneak up from behind, the son is unlikely to survive beyond the daddy's tour of duty.
Plus, Bersatu is only the third largest party in PH, and holds less than a third of PKR or DAP seats. -

Najib and Tun are on opposite ends.starlight1968sg:
Too complex for me to understand
same here.
i only know najib and M/anwar are on opposite ends.
Najib and Anwar are also on opposite ends.
Tun, Anwar and Najib used to be on the same end, but later, Tun and Naijb decided to isolate Anwar on the opposite end.
Today, Tun and Anwar stand on the same end to oppose Najib on the opposite end.
In politics, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. -
How come so many GE14 threads?

I also suspect he'll 'play punk' from the press conference. He just wants to win over some Wan Azizah's supporters perhaps?Old man still very spritely, clear & lucid. Looks like he'll likely rehash the whole East Coast line with China. Wants to renegotiate contract terms? Really?

I wonder what's gonna happen to Forest City and Melaka port. -
Zeit:
Both will still go ahead but should be doomed.

I wonder what's gonna happen to Forest City and Melaka port.
Both will then be used as 'showcases' of the excesses and failures of the previous UMNO-led government.
P/S: I hope no one here bought a unit in Forest City
