And so, one of the biggest things to happen in PAP’s 50-year
history, made its way to our headlines – and the world’s – on the auspicious
date of 12.12.2012. Mr Michael Palmer, Speaker of Parliament and member of the
ruling PAP, had resigned from his posts, as accepted by his superior, the Prime
Minister and Sec-Gen of the PAP.
Whoever said the PAP was
squeaky clean had to be dreaming, dreaming far too deeply in the fairy tale
spun by the PAP for decades. No man is saint and we are bound to moral failure,
but it takes more than moral courage to rule a country; the system has to be in
place.
