Academic: Cabinet reshuffle is to pave way for the successors

SMU Assistant Professor of Law Eugene Tan said that the three new additions to the Cabinet constitute part of the Cabinet renewal process. This will enable the three new Ministers to face new challenges and learn how to deal with different situations, while at the same time, injecting new life, new perspectives and a new mentality to these Ministries. If they perform outstandingly, they could become the core members of the fourth generation of leaders. He predicted that there could be another Cabinet reshuffle in two years' time.
