The domination of the ruling party, in particularly, those on the inner circle, is so thorough and complete, no matter what level of popular support there is, that there is only one effective voice, the voice of the ruling party and one plan to move ahead. Until that is changed, and I don't necessarily mean changing the govt, because under this system, whoever takes control carries the same weakness of system, we do not have an alternative.. You may argue it makes decision making easier. Yes it is very convenient for the ruling party and even weak policies can easily be passed.

I'm not a defender of the system or the lack of transparency which you rightfully point out. I am a defender of the net RESULTS which are plain for all to see but which many choose to ignore.

Each society needs its own form of governance and the PAP brand of politics is appropriate for a multicultural young nation in a perilous position.
