Not forgetting media reporting.
They used to be able to brainwash citizens with their "controlled medias".
Just look at the reportings during GE and PE by newspaper and mediacorp, bias to the max.
But not now, where information can so easily be obtained on the new age media platform.

To add: What is worrying is the subject "National Education" is being used to brainwash our descendents to support the PAP blindly.

“I ignore polling as a method of government. I think that shows a certain weakness of mind - an inability to chart a course whichever way the wind blows, whichever way the media encourages the people to go, you follow. If you can't force or are unwilling to force your people to follow you, with or without threats, you are not a leader.”
― Lee Kuan Yew


“Mine is a very matter-of-fact approach to the problem. If you can select a population and they're educated and they're properly brought up, then you don't have to use too much of the stick because they would already have been trained. It's like with dogs. You train it in a proper way from small. It will know that it's got to leave, go outside to pee and to defecate. No, we are not that kind of society. We had to train adult dogs who even today deliberately urinate in the lifts.”
