im worried that SG doesnt have a future leader which can unite everyone.

If there is unity, why is there a brain drain?
In an interview by UPI Editor at Large, Arnaud de Borchgrave on Feb. 2, 2008
ex-PM admitted the brain drain:

 

Q: You also have a brain drain?

A: Yes, we're losing them to America.
Q: Not China?
A: No, there they have to compete against 1.3 billion people producing huge numbers of very bright people. They'd rather go to America where they become acclimatized, then go to China with an American firm. Chinese speakers, they are part of an American team with a leg up on their Chinese competitors. And from there, they can come back to Singapore with the kind of experience that puts them at the top of their game. Those who seek less rigorous competition, a more relaxed lifestyle, go to Canada and Australia.
Q: How many top brains do you consider lost to Singapore every year?
A: At the top end, about 1,000 a year. That's a loss of 4 percent or 5 percent. But compensating that, we have Chinese and Indians coming here looking for better prospects. So on balance, we're still gainers. But the day will come when China, in 30 or 40 years, will offer better prospects than any country in the world.

 

But regarding the reply, I really don't know whether the top end 1k/yr are going to US or the bulk goes to Canada or down under.

Since when ' mata ' ask citizen how much thy should be paid ?

 

There is a disparity between paid in dollars vs working hard to pay our due/s ?

 

They sit in high office and becomes keyboard warrior giving instructions to their downlines, of course not all are bad, but the younger generation ministers are behaving that way.

Yes, I respect him and team for doing a miraculous job for SGP.

I also saw all that is to see, read, the methods he used on his political opponents but sometimes you need to sacrifice

some(ones) to bring about greater things for the country.

 

However, I can't give the same level of respect for the current team though.
