Why I joined the Opposition - Gerald Giam

My friends in the PAP tell me that it is more effective to change Singapore from within the PAP than from outside.

I believe that changes to the finer details of policies are possible from within, but fundamental changes to the way the country is governed can only come if the top echelon of leaders in the party either radically change their mind, or are replaced.

Neither is about to happen anytime soon.
