PAP'S SEARCH GOES BEYOND THE HIGH-FLYING SCHOLAR TYPES (Straits Times 6 April pg H5)
It is good to know that PAP is looking for candidates who are capable of leading the country even if he or she is not scholarly. Much as education is very important but if it is going to be the main factor, many potentials will remain untapped. This is especially for those who have failed their English. This is because I have friends who failed their O'level English but scored either straight As or high Bs. I find it such a pity as they are really capable in many ways. I believe that PAP should continue to find new people who may not be scholarly but possess a positive attitude, EQ and the ability to deliver what is promised. In addition with a diversity of people's backgrounds and upbringing, it is more likely they will have an easier time helping our people live better lives.
