Hi, respectfully I would have to disagree with you. People who say Singapore is a benevolent dictatorship seem to discount the fact that free and fair elections have been held since independence, and that people are free to kick out the government of the day at any point. The strongest criticism you can give is that some of the democratic institutions aren't as strong as they can be, but all nations have a journey of evolution.
