we have indeed come a long way, we've based our current success on construction, finance, manufacturing & trade.
it's not a secret on how the multiplier effect from the construction industries would help bring about economic growth. it's not a secret on how the credibility of the finance sector would bring about more investors to our shores.
it's not a secret on how we rely on ST and weapons technology to sustain our need for our defences and to sell them.
it's not a secret on how we ply on the entrepôt trade that was a given with credits to our natural deep harbors.
with much of our land developed, how much can we depend on the MUPs & LUPs to sustain the growth?
in a financial world so intricately linked, how much can we depend on our partners for growth?
with maids carrying our young soldiers' bags, how much can we depend on them in times of war?
with changing landscapes, be it socio-political or geographical, how long can we stay competitive?
we enjoy whatever we have now because our forefathers traded their efforts for it, so it seems we've become complacent about it. 前人种树,后人乘凉。how long would the trees stand? how sturdy are they? are we capable of weathering the storm? this is a time where we make or break it and we are at the crossroad once again, ol'Chummy...
