All in the Family

Here is an article about Asia's political dynasties.

  1. He forgot to mention Bush Sr and Jr.

    And the Clintons too. Not exactly the same position but still quite high as Secretary of State.

  2. The US recognised this. So at most their "dynasty" is only 8 years or so. Even the Kennedy's cannot take control of power for 30, 40, 50 years.

    IMO their current system more of worry that the politicians become manipulated by big-business lobby groups or whoever that can donate the biggest amount to campaign funds.

  3. Someone send me this that a 15 years old boy is setting up a petition to ask Mr. LKY to apologise to Singaporeans. Not sure whether this is authentic.
