"I wish we had been able to foresee this outcome, and then we would have acted sooner"
I thought good governments should have some form of forecasting for their policies?
Isn't it quite obvious that if you put too many people in a small place the infrastructure would be strained?
As for the sense of belonging, I thought we had quite a strong sense of belonging in the 80s or 90s? It seemingly got eroded after he took over.
I've had a great sense of belonging towards Singapore ever since I left the damned place.

So beautiful poetry and kids playing happily is a better yardstick?Gimme a break please.
I think Spore has deteriorated alot since he took over in 2004, we used to be a clean and orderly country but look what a mess now with littering everywhere and imported low quality foreigners. Regardless of GDP, our quality of life has definitely gone down.
The next time you meet some poor sod in Singapore can't pay his bills and feed his family, read him some beautiful poetry and tell him the Bob Kennedy said it means more than money in the pocket and food on the table.
Let me know what his reaction is.
GDP in itself is meaningless. Any country can have a sudden boost in GDP by becoming a money laundering hub.
Also, most of the wealth is transient in nature, and does not trickle down to the people who need it.

To Asterix and Boss Sam,
I would like to hear your opinions on the 'Middle ground' surely no society can function if it goes fully towards the 'left' or fully towards 'right' . So Liberal vs Conservatism,, what or where is the middle ground where the benefits to most of society is greatest?

The political spectrum is a smokescreen.
There are only two types of politicians: those who work for the people and those who work for big business interests.
Republic vs Oligarchy.
