In a small state like Singapore, their system works. When you have a giant city where most people live in apartment blocks or condominiums, the ideal "town-hall" style for a local government obviously doesn't work, but Singapore just isn't big enough to have the true democratic process of a representative body represented by different districts.
I think the difference between most Asian democracies and European/American democracies is that Asians try to give the government the benefit of the doubt, while other democracies immediately question the government. And if the economy is booming like it is in Singapore why would you want a radical government change anyways?
