As the year draws to a close, let us recap some unforgettable quotes made by our millionaire ministers and MPs. Every single word which spews out of their mouth is worth a few million dollars of taxpayers’ money, so let us remember them close by heart:
1. Lee Hsien Loong (Poor leadership award)
“What to do do? It happened”
After keeping quiet for a whopping 11 days, PM Lee finally opened his mouth in response to the escape of Mas Selamat Kastari. A jaw-dropping response from the nation’s leader. Remember, he is still worth S$3.1 million dollars a year after the 19% pay cut.
2. Lee Kuan Yew (Delusion of the year award)
“There is a conspiracy to do us in. Why?…They see us as a threat.”
His response to human rights groups’ increasing criticism of Singapore’s authoritarian government and its appeal to other regimes like Communist China shows that he is living in his own wonderland, far removed from reality.
