Have been watching the thread and looks like people missed out the significance of the reshuffle.

1. BG Tan as speculated during the GE had even jumped over Viv B and captured the influential 1st tier Ministry of Manpower. It must have been a severe blow to Viv B and Kee Chiu. I won't be surprised if Viv B leaves eventually. Though given acting, he is fully accountable. If he was made a full minister, Kee Chiu would have looked back as well as the PAP leadership.

2. Looks like Kee Chiu has performance issue with the key component of his Ministry stripped away. He has also been given the Arts, Heritage and other masak masak duties from MICA together with sports. To lessen the impact they give MOS for Defence.

3. Lawrence Wong has done well and together with Tan is likely to lead after Ng.

4. Grace Fu has been rewarded for factionalism and inner party work. Though a full minister she like Iswaran have not been given a Ministry like Tan, Chan and Wong.
