Singapore s former prime minister Goh Chok Tong has urged citizens to give space to the younger ministers of the ruling People s Action Party as they pick a new leader among themselves following the hiccup of the country s prime-minister-in-waiting stepping aside.
Goh said the process, which will in effect determine who will succeed Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, was not just an internal PAP problem but a national issue. This is an important decision for Singapore, said Goh, who led the country from 1990 to 2004. The future of a country depends on its leaders. Good leaders institute good governance. Good governance delivers a safe, secure, stable and conducive environment for its people to grow, compete, succeed and flourish, he said.
