SINGAPORE, SIN - Saying they were sure the last one would last longer, PM Lee Hsien Loong announced last night that his party 'nevertheless vowed to seek someone else to take all the blame' by election time. The announcement comes after a surprise exit by Minister for Taking Blame Lui Tuck Yew left thousands lost and scrambling to find something or someone to blame for all their problems. "I tried blaming foreigners to cope with the lost, but it just doesn't work unless there's someone with a six-figure salary, at least." said one poor soul who asked to remain anonymous. At press time, the man was allegedly still bottling up his feelings. However, choosing the next scapegoat minister is no easy task, says political analyst Tan Tock Sing. "Usually, the various MPs and ministers will gather for a closed-door party and then it takes at least three rounds of intense drinking before one of them finally loses a bet. After that, the ceremony begins and the new minister will be blessed by the ten official religions in Singapore." Meanwhile, Singaporeans wait literally in bated breath in crowded trains and buses.
