A CERTAIN vitality and energy are needed to lead a country, and the leadership of the country must not become aged, said Deputy Prime Minister (DPM) Teo Chee Hean on Monday.

"You don't want a whole nation to be held hostage by the health of a cohort of people who are already senior and are getting more and more senior with each passing year, so you need leadership renewal, " he added.
