Today on the internet you will not miss the voluble angry voices of Singaporeans over the high cost of living and other governmental deficiencies which they blame the government of Lee Hsien Loong for bringing their livelihood to such a miserable state when the PM and his plutocrat ministers are pocketing millions of the people's money. And what a cruel joke when you have an out-of-touch DPM Lawrence Wong shouting his head off trying to get the people to support the 4G leaders in the next general elecrtion. He was quite popular in the beginning but it now sounds like a repeatedly-played gramophone record which the people may find amusing. He is the PM-in-waiting in eternity like his predecessor Heng Swee Kiat. Whether or when Lee Hsien Loong is going to step down is still a myth and there is a rumble to urge him to do so now. You get a famous political commentator like Bertha Henson to join in the chorus to strongly urge him to step down now. But true to his character Lee Hsien Loong is quite thick-skinned and he needs a putsch to get him out.
Lately he might be haunted by the world geopolitical situation and came out to utter claptrap to try to tranquillise the people but he really needs the succour himself. He sucks up to Xi Jinping and hobnobs with the Americans at the same time. He has become a past master at tight-rope politics.
Good luck to Singapore and may God bless you.
