    The PM seems to have forgotten why the PAP lost Aljunied GRC, and why he had to make a personal apology in GE2011. He has forgotten that character assassination and the politics of slime wins a party no favours. He has forgotten that the true litmus test of government policies is not the volume of chest thumping among party loyals, but at the polls among those who can see right through you.

    Sometimes, one has to believe that thing just happened for a reason (good or bad). Heng Swee Keat was not destined for the PM role with the stroke. Because of COVID, LW was pushed to the front (He was not so prominent up to that point) and was given a chance to display his leadership quality and he had done well. Thereafter, the rest is history. LW seems destined to be the one, if everything goes well for him in the next GE.

    Consider, a 99yrs bto 4 rm of abt 97sqm is abt $480,000 estimate, depending on location to location. Stamp duty/conveyancing fees r subsidised. There are further govt grants n subsidies. A comparable size 97sqm resale FH pte apt/condo on the outlying areas costs abt $1.3M. Stamp duty n conveyancing fees r higher. New 99yrs 97sqm pte condo/apt costs abt $1.3M. Sm maths n filtering of tots seriously required for the ‘big headache’ here.
