July 12 (Bloomberg) -- Singapore's current political team, led by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, may last two terms before it needs to seek a new generation of leaders to run the country, Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew said.

The island of 4.59 million people needs ``top, able'' people to sustain its growth prospects, Lee said at a dinner co- hosted by the central bank late yesterday. The economy has the potential to grow between 7 percent and 8 percent in the next decade, he said.
