Leadership renewal

Dear Mr Tan
Perhaps you may wish to incorporate the following yahoo forum posting in your blog.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The original spirit is for the EP to check on potential renegate ruling party. The effective EP should logically be a non-PAP minister/MP for proper check and balance.

Presidential election is for the people to decide.


Why did the elite "leadership" of unions and establishments so selfishly take side ? It must be for obvious reasons ie. to enjoy holding senior positions continuously 20-35 years ignoring the need for leadership renewal.


For the sake of Singapore's future, establishment-endorsed TT should graciously withdraw. Failing which, hope 2 out of the 3 other candidates will pull out.


This will help forge a Unifying Force (1-for-3 approach). The more focused voters will then be able go full steam help the Unifying Force garner a decisive 55-60% vote count, leaving TT with just 40% vote count.

  2. In line with the original intent for an EP (for a more effective check + balance in the event of any potential renegate ruling party): it will tfore be an honourable move if estabilishment-endorsed candidate withdraws from the presidential race.

    Let the 3 non establishment-endorsed candidates contest on a clean and dignified mannner.

  3. In line with the original intent for an EP to ensure there is proper checks and balances in event of a renegate ruling cabinet, it would be an honourable move for establishment-endorsed candidate to withdraw from the presidential race at the first instance.

    This so that the non esablishment-endorsed candidates can contest on a clean and dignified manner.
