PAP's omnipotence is an illusion

PAP’s omnipotence is actually an illusion created by our sycophantic mainstream media. By itself, PAP has NO power as it is derived from the people. But fear can be so overpowering that it overwhelms logic and blinds us to the fact that PAP’s power has all the while been … in our hands. Don’t believe?

Prior to 2011, PAP overpaid itself, underestimated housing requirements by miles and even forgot Singaporeans are human beings with healthcare needs. When Singaporeans reduced PAP’s power by 6.5% in May 2011 to 60.1%, PAP suddenly woke up and found the resources to construct adequate housing and reduced its political salary by millions.

Singaporeans had called PAP’s bluff and were rewarded with belated changes. Can you imagine what would have happened if its power had been reduced by 26.5% instead of 6.5%? I am pretty certain PAP would not have demanded we live with a 6.9 million population by 2030.

PAP’s omnipotence is pure propaganda; in reality, it is a coward. Only cowards hide behind the armour of state machinery when confronted by lesser mortals or resort to bankruptcy proceedings which ordinary citizens cannot afford. A hallmark of cowards – the refusal to admit to and apologise for its mistakes, even monumental ones.
