The issue of an Indian PM in Singapore is highly controversial but somehow kept under the lid for quite some time. The emergence of an ethnic Indian running for PM in UK has revived this issue and the same questions are being raised again. If racist UK can have an Indian running to be PM and may even become a reality, would this happen to Singapore soon? UK is setting the example for an ethnic minority of Indian origin to be the PM of white UK. Surely it is time for Singapore to have an ethnic Indian as PM. After all there are so many more Indians in the island, so many successful Indians and so many well regarded Indian ministers. Some even think that Tharman is definitely more suitable than anyone else, better than the 4G PM designates.
So, when would Singapore be ready for an Indian PM? Or would it need a Sunak Moment to propel an ethnic Indian as the PM? Should there be such a moment, and leading to a contest, I would say the ethnic Indians would have a higher chance to be elected as the next PM as likely all the Indians would be voting for him, and many Chinese would also be voting for him. Though some racist elements have been agitating the agenda that the majority Chinese are racists, coming to the issue of a PM, there have been many voices that prived otherwise. Many Chinese are rooting for Tharman to be the next PM. How's that for a racist Chinese majority? The contradiction and mischievous allegation that Chinese are racist are glaringly false.
There are several reasons why there would not be a Sunak Moment in Singapore. Firstly, we don't have a Bojo clown Boris in the PM seat. Secondly, we don't have a Sunak to scheme to replace the PM in a Sunak Moment. Thirdly, our Indian ministers somehow did not have the ambition to want to be the PM. So the status quo is likely to be here for a while. Unless Sunak loses his election and decides that Singapore is an easier option and apply to be a resident here. For sure if Sunak comes, a Sunak Moment would be in the card.
In conclusion, as long as we don't have a clown PM, as long as our Indian ministers did not have the ambition to be a PM, there would not be a Sunak Moment here. Oops, a caveat, if Sunak does not become a resident.

From the sparing between Sunak, the Chancellor, and the Liz Truss, the Foreign Minister, it is very clear that Sunak is a better person. Racism aside.
However, I think the UK public would not allow a Non-White to become the next PM of UK.
Somehow, someone, somewhere will engineer for a White to be the next PM. Probably from the side of dying Queen Empire?
Just imagine, as a Chancellor, he does not know how to buy a can of coke? This is rubbish. Pure rubbish.
As a student, in his past, growing up in the UK some 50 years ago, I am sure he would have bought many cans of coke in his whole lifetime.
Therefore, the spinning this Fat Guy is trying to pin onto the Chancellor, is FALSE, and needs to be debunked outright!
According to rumours online: 'Has Rishi Sunak Succeeded in Buying His Way Into No 10 - Fake Tory Leadership Contest??'
'It looks increasingly likely that Rishi Sunak's Billionaire father in law has managed to buy his son in law the Keys to No 10. Whilst we won't know the true cost of all of the behind the scenes shenanigans, it probably runs in the tens of millions. For India like most developing nations is politically corrupt where the Rich dictate who gets info office and so will give birth to the Sunak Premiership as his battle with Liz Truss is pure smoke and mirrors exercise to convince the electorate that there actually is a leaderships contest when it has all already been bought and paid for by daddy in law.'

Covid19 could be a possible US bioweapon:
'Russia now suspects that USAID might have been directly responsible for the emergence of the Covid-19 virus, according to Kirillov, who pointed to a Lancet article by Columbia professor Jeffry Sachs, who suggested that the virus was likely created in a lab with the help of America’s latest achievements in the field of biotechnology.
“The implementation of the COVID-19 development scenario and USAID’s emergency phasing out of the Predict program in 2019 suggest the deliberate nature of the pandemic and US involvement in its occurrence,” Kirillov said.'

Scamming seems to be a vocation for Indians working at call centres supposed to be for tech support, all located in India. There is a report that 80% of scams, like calls on your mobile daily, are scams originating from India. The Indian slang is a giveaway.
Everything seems to be usable for scamming, and I have received many calls, purportedly from MOH, claiming that I did not answer some nonsensical rubbish they sent to me. That was on my home phone, otherwise I never answer calls from anonymous callers.

Sunak's rise signifies the arrival of the Indian diaspora
There are now seven heads of government and state from the Indian diaspora in countries ranging from Portugal, Singapore, Suriname and Guyana to Mauritius and the Seychelles. Others serve in senior executive, legislative, judicial or party roles, such as U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris and Jagmeet Singh, head of Canada's opposition New Democratic Party.
The success of Rishi Sunak, former British chancellor, at winning a place in the runoff to be the next leader of the U.K.'s ruling Conservative Party and the country's next prime minister has triggered intense excitement and interest in India and among its 32 million-strong diaspora around the world.
The prospect of a young politician who hails from a family of Punjabi emigrants to East Africa and Britain making it to the top office of India's former colonial master has tantalized observers. In the past few decades, numerous political success stories have emerged from among the Indian diaspora.
Some of these high-flyers proudly showcase their Indian heritage as a badge of honor, while others downplay it for political convenience. But a common thread binding all these achievers is that they carry something distinctly Indian in terms of their democratic and pluralistic ancestral inheritance.
Diaspora Indians can comfortably mix and coexist in multicultural backgrounds without sealing themselves off from mainstream communities, and have skill at avoiding cultural barriers in their host nations.
Other common factors fueling the political influence of diaspora Indians is their dogged pursuit of higher education qualifications and the climbing of professional ladders in their countries of domicile.
Another factor that is propelling the political ascendance of diaspora Indians is the formation of their own ethnic associations and lobbies. Akin to successful Jewish groups which have helped support Israel's interests worldwide, these associations of Indian-origin people are now advocating for New Delhi's interests in various countries and are having an impact on policymaking.
Consider the recent vote by the U.S. House of Representatives to waive potential sanctions against India over its purchase of advanced Russian weapons systems.
This proposal was shepherded by California Rep. Rohit Khanna, a member of the so-called "samosa caucus" of U.S. diaspora Indians who support one another and maintain ties with the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. By no coincidence, Modi is an ardent champion of the diaspora.
The phenomenon of the Indian diaspora arriving in a big way in public affairs and politics is undeniable. India itself may not be taking over the world, but its civilizational progeny are definitely going places.
