		<description>&lt;p&gt;A more interesting question would be ... will a leader be a good leader without real competition? And if there is no real competition, are the followers of the &#039;bad&#039; leader useless than the leader they elected?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you have a father like Mr Lee Kuan Yew, who will be stupid enough to compete with you to the top post? It will be a career or personal suicide to take on that competition.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Am told a few minister quit PAP when young lee was invited by Goh Chok Tong. We lost a genius like Goh Keng Swee because he sees this as the beginning of the downfall of PAP and Singapore. We know Goh Keng Swee as the genius, the strategist and a visionary...a better one than LKY, and he saw the beginning of the downfall for PAP and the leadership development of Singapore.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While we give credit to those old guards, what have the new guards done that deserve credit?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Don&#039;t we have more than one person wanting to compete for the top PM job, where have all the talents like the old guards? We have build cronism where MP &amp; Ministers are frens of Lee, Yong &amp; Gohs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Singapore has lost of the industry our forefathers builds, we don&#039;t have entrepeuer like Korea, HK or even Japan; because of GLC determine to keep wealth within the PAP government as only the rich is left to challenge PAP. As a result, Singapore becomes a plan for fun, play and gamble...and singapore a working hand-to-mouth to live in a overly expensive HDB.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Have u seen our old folks carrying old box carts or serving at fast food chains to serving our FT and tourist?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is the beginning of the end of the Singapore&#039;s story.&lt;/p&gt;
