All the PAP candidates in so far are great .. professional managers .. less one who is a very young professional only.

You throw former Chief of Defence into any structured system with established governance policies & regulations, and he just needs to toe the line, would he fail ?? Juz like many other retired generals/ colonels who become CEO of GLCs in SG, would they screw up so bad that they'll be fired ??

Take away the PAP political vehicle and ask the same set of PAP candidates to do arang combat with the secondary school/ businessman opposition candidates (both being new to politics), who do you think likely will win in an open forum discussion??

How many of our current politicians, just like our current bosses/ superiors are professional managers ?? How many of these you feel are great leaders that lead with passion and example ?? How many of them earn your respects because they take care of you whilst growing the business/ country too ??

Professional managers are a plenty out there and they help to meet the growth prospects of the company but comes a better offer on the table, they jump ship and sayonara .. Do we want such professional managers to be our MPs to take care of our interests ??
