PAP has ruled Singapore without a significant amount of opposition to deal with. I can understand in the old days when heavy-handed rule seemed justifiable amid the interracial riots, economic turmoil, and political instability that characterized the political landscape at that time. Now, it's quite different. Singapore has already achieved the stability (both political and economic) for democracy to flourish. Does this kind of system still relevant to a 21st century Singapore?

[MrCocoi123]

They are all TANs. Are they related to one another somehow? The recently concluded presidential election was seen as a test for the ruling's party's popularity after its uninterrupted rule for more than half a century in Singapore. The election was very tense I guess since the new President-elect won by razor-thin margin over closest rival. There was a plurality of votes for Yam not a majority. Does this signal a beginning of a gradual change of political atmosphere in Singapore?
